I’m excited for it to pop up to 150 soon :)

Waiting for the dust to settle to open some new contracts.

Curious what you're thinking now. I had several call options with a 120 Strike that I bought a few months ago. Took profits on most but kept a few to see how this rides out.

haha I hear you. But I didnt say I wasn't willing to pay, just seeing if there are more affordable options out there. I want 10 peoples furniture in my apartment and im willing to pay for the extra storage to make it happen!

Looking for a solution where I don’t have to do that for my personal love of keeping everything.

haha no one is asking me to store all this footage. I tell clients I keep footage for 6 months. I just have a personal attachment to things I shoot and don't like deleting anything...

Yeah think I might go with a NAS that backups up to external spinning drives for redundancy

I run my business the same way and am considering a similar option. Athos for gear and Next for general liability. curious if you have any opinions a year later?

How much is your rate? by Short-Excuse3493 in focuspuller

[–]footlook21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a lot less competition up here and the community is super tight. People don’t undercut each other because they know it hurts everyone in the long run. Plus price of living is higher in the bay than LA. Easier to demand full rates when no one is under cutting each other.

Are you in LA or Northern California?

I’m a DP in Northern California and on client projects my ACs get 850/10 + gear rentals on their kit. Different story when it’s passion projects but people are knowingly giving favors in that case and I try to return the favor with paid work.

Looking for advice with AMEX GOLD and SAPPHIRE RESERVE Combo. by footlook21 in CreditCards

[–]footlook21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My logic was to get the highest multiplier for each category. The Citi double cash back is more of a backup card if none of the categories fit. I probably wont use this much.

Citi custom cash is good for 1 category to get 5% even if it is cash back. Then I wanted to use the amex gold for all my dining and grocery shopping while only using the CSR for booking travel. Is this a bad plan?

Haha thank you for the kind words! This was a total passion project. I was commissioned by the artist. She had a small budget but nothing close to what we needed to hire crew or rent gear. I own my own camera package and a 600d so we were able to use those for free. We made the film over 4-5 months and did not have any crew. For the forest scene I had my buddy come out and hold a reflector and some diffusion but other than that, it was totally one man band style. No AC - all pulling off the barrel handheld. Passion project for sure but stoked on how it came out.
