Hello all,

I am an aspiring student filmmaker in the Boston area, and the film I am currently working on features the erhu very prominantly, both in the soundtrack and on screen. However, I am having a great deal of trouble finding an erhu to rent over the period of the shoot - perhaps around two weeks in october/november - and I was wondering if anybody would be interested in renting theirs out for a bit, or would be willing to point me in the direction of someone who would.

Thanks so much,
Alex

Hi Alex, sorry , I dont have one here to let out, but I did google wikipedia and see that there is a Chinatown in Boston , have you tried that route yet? You might have some luck for connections of a music related at the local university too.
you could pm me a link to how to obtain a copy of your film, sounds interesting how an erhu could be featured into it.

   The Erhu is a very sensitive instrument and shipping it back and forth would not be very wise and not to mention costly as well,  so you would have to get one near your location or if would be possible to purchase one just for the shoot, most companies do that then sell there items after the shoot.

My oldest daughter runs the camera crews on movie and studio sets so I know a little of what your going through.
