I'm not sure I understand this? You'll pay $200-250/day but the pay is deferred? When do you then actually get paid?

And lodging for out of which town?

SPAMed to 7 different forums! Bravo!

I think you'd need to send *your* resume/reel to get someone interested in this.

Got one?
 
What he's saying is they don't even plan to pay $200 - $250 per day. They will pay for use of your equipment out of that rate (perhaps $125 per day) but the rest you get ONLY if the picture makes money.

This just gets better and better doesn't it?

i've never quite understood the pay rates for deferred from most producers ...
shouldn't a defered rate be at least the DP's/crew current rate or more .....
looking at it from RISK vs. REWARD it seems like deferred should be 2-3X the normal rate ... RISK = 95+% of these types project NEVER see a dime ... so if one has a 95% chance of receiving nothing then the reward should be greater then their normal rate ...

so if one is going to offer/pay me nothing .. then i want ALLOT of nothing ...

based on experience = the longer the contract a producer put's in front of you the more likely you'll never see a dime ... the only times that i've been paid on deferred were on hand shake agreements ....
 
Fred and Sharon have 'single Christian name' international recognition like Madonna, Prince and Elvis. Megastars of their calibre would never work for less than $400 a day.To associate them with a $250 day Bollywood film would be scandalous.

Who are Fred and Sharon?!?!
 
It has been 16 years since I worked on my first "deferred payment" film. Can anyone guess who much money I have received?


One of the best bits of advice I received when I was starting out was 'Deferred means Free". I had no idea what they were talking about at the time but I sure do now!

Did someone confuse RedUser with Craigslist?
 
calm down guys this guy has a total budget of us dollars : $2300 for his feature... But in rupees its like 1.5 mill.... :)

Just enough for a 1/4 day shoot with a small crew LOL
