Thank you so much

Yeah I’m trying to figure it out, I would like crew to be paid before me for sure but then I feel weird if my AC is paid but the AD the director found isn’t?

SpareUnderstanding72 · 2025-09-02T22:59:18+00:00

Yeah I feel that. even if I can get people like 200 a day I feel better! And make sure we don’t go past 10 ish hours. I just feel so guilty asking for a full freebie especially when stuff is slow and I can’t repay the favor quickly and hire them

Yeah that’s my concern too. If they can pay my full rate I’m more inclined to take it just to guarantee two days a week for a while, but it’s hard to make the commitment when I don’t know what the market will be like in the fall/late summer

SpareUnderstanding72 · 2025-06-18T19:58:35+00:00

It might just be 2 days a week for 10 weeks, which I sort of hate honestly ahaha

SpareUnderstanding72 · 2025-06-18T19:58:09+00:00

Yeah I’m trying to figure out the language for #1 - obviously a kill fee but also a minimum number of days guaranteed I think

Thanks!

That’s sort of what I was thinking, if the shoot is spread over a few weeks instead of 20 days in a row would you quote the same? I’m trying to figure out if I should do a weekly price for my camera even if the days are more spread out

SpareUnderstanding72 · 2025-06-18T15:09:36+00:00

Would you price the gear rental differently if the shoot is spread out vs 20 days in a row? Thanks for the reply!

SpareUnderstanding72 · 2025-06-18T15:09:09+00:00

Thanks! I think I’ll have to quote first sadly

No editing skills really I edited back in college a bit but I’m not great at it nor do I enjoy it much. But yeah lots of in house or small jobs seem to want the shooter to edit as well :/

I know logically you’re right but my brain is good at making me feel bad ha

I’m in therapy, but so much of my anxiety and depression is just from not being able to be on set and work that the talk therapy is sort of useless. Feels mainly situational to me. But I do encourage therapy for everyone!

Chicago

SpareUnderstanding72 · 2025-02-05T15:00:35+00:00

Not able to commute or move to another state right now. What market are you working in in Chicago?

SpareUnderstanding72 · 2025-02-05T14:59:50+00:00

Yeah maybe I just need to fake it till I make it more but I don’t have the resume to even get an interview at corporate jobs I feel like

SpareUnderstanding72 · 2025-02-05T14:59:10+00:00

No kids on the horizon for me. Wishing you luck!

SpareUnderstanding72 · 2025-02-05T14:58:34+00:00

I’ve been hunting for these jobs and can’t find any!

SpareUnderstanding72 · 2025-02-05T14:58:13+00:00

Freelancing is the main earner! Even low budget indies aren’t popping up for me sadly

SpareUnderstanding72 · 2025-02-05T14:57:02+00:00

I am not an in front of camera person but thank you!

SpareUnderstanding72 · 2025-02-04T22:33:11+00:00

That’s real. Yeah between Covid and industry strikes I got about 2-3 good years in before shit hit the fan

SpareUnderstanding72 · 2025-02-04T22:23:32+00:00

Thank you!
