The world gets smaller by the day Chris! Exciting times we live in. I am never surprised by the people I meet when I travel etc, not matter how far away from home you are...there is always that person you run into that can relate.

I was born in Newcastle, England. Immigrated to New Zealand at the age of two, then to the USA in 2000. Every port of call a friendly face

Nice cameras!! I see a Red slipped in there as well.

Very cool. For sure this calls for a nice bellows camera, a few plates, a case if avail.

For example if there was $10,000 paid in labour we could gain an additional $6,500 back from the province of Manitoba.

For a 6 minute short?

Personally.... I don't need any compensation other than good results.

What I meant by the money question was this is how the tax credit works on TV & Film productions...when you multiply such percentages into multi-million dollar budgets you get to see this becomes a very real financial incentive...in fact it's the best in North America, but I'm not here to try to bring anything up here; I had only mentioned this in reference to the fact that this was one of the reasons people shoot in Manitoba.

I don't care where we shoot. I was supposed to be in Serbia directing a feature but I did my due diligence and punted the producers before I got in too deep! ~maybe I should be posting this on another OT thread

Getting back on track however, I don't think anyone is thinking about remuneration here, which is good. There appears to be many skilled folks with a desire to make something, which is a great motivator...and one of the things I always here when I'm at Sundance -which is stop whining about the budget, do whatever it takes and just make the freakin' thing.

Serbia would have been a pretty interesting shoot. Too bad that didn't work out, but better the producer punt came before, and not halfway into a disaster.
