| How much money should I ask?
Question of organica:
August 2010
hello,
I am unfortunately quite aimlessly what you require so s.geld - for image or wedding / event movies.
've actually synonymous with a degree in the direction, but only recently finished studying and looking at references in the moment ... I deserve my money more casually with movies / video clips - but it will change with the time-course ....
have a cut for a day long event s.einer uni rotated (alone, small Panasonic HDC-SD707) and then from a five minute film.
because the order-by and a girlfriend came the really no interest had jumped out gerademal 250 ¬ out for me.
1 - there are now possibly another order-in the device. what should I ask for gage ne?
2 - is synonymous to a wedding soon. again but in miniature desk people, no light, just above the camera, and then I cut of three-minute and 20 minute.
3 - then there would be synonymous still a kind of training film of 50-10 minutes where I synonymous a little light and a cameraman + + assi ton would need, but still with the small camera filmed and borrowed light / ton / auto ....
to the average ...

One can calculate such a fee of questions over two pages. In your case I would actually say: Roughly explore what the client is willing to pay for it, and taking into account the fact that you "are Beginners" and with very simple technology working. Since I would imagine that 350 EUR realistic for a day of shooting and 350 EUR for a cut-days are. Then you land at a wedding film or as a university film with Rotate, Cut, texts and talking at 1.000 EUR, that would be quite decent.
If you but to continue seriously, you have obviously different count and just look what costs (rent, health insurance, food, drink) You have a year, how many jobs you can get realistic and what technique you have to buy at what intervals, and then come together as naturally significantly higher daily rates. Verrückterweise the actual costs are more nearly equal, no preference whether you use midrange or upper class technology, because one with the most expensive technology can work longer than with less.
The decisive factor is synonymous but what do you manage in this time. I make my clients always feasible that because I can not estimate exactly how much work a particular Project. They want to eventually not even know what does the day, but what does the finished film.

That is correct. And one must add that there is no preference as to the client, which is s.Start for a camera. Find your price so according to your abilities as a One-Man-Regisseur/Kameramann/Beleuchter/Tontechniker/Post Producer. Someone with broadcast equipment makes for a long time no better movie. bagging think And always remember: only about the price contracts does not want to - there is always one that makes it cheaper.

Well, I do think that the customer wants at a price higher synonymous got something to offer. I once with a PD150 rotated because the customer asked if there was the Super 8 ...
Today I write with image and advertising films rather the concepts + do the postproduction and a cameraman, expanding your facility with EB-shoulder camera, or just an EB team for the shoot. Firstly, the "more out" and secondly, I can justify such higher Prices, thirdly, I have to tell me this does not even care about the camera technology and also it is fun to drive pure Directing (and thereby comfortably to drink coffee and with the Chief chat ...).
The good news: An EB-Team you can hire as synonymous Beginners and need not invest in expensive technology like everything ...
What you should NEVER do IMHO is to undercut Prices. Setting up and tell you, you're a professional. That must be enough. I have enough people who given a discharge, who thought with 100-500 ¬ they could buy in a movie. And do not even have a few synonymous then the right Prices accepted. With Dumping - prices hurting you just not all, no preference whether beginner or professional.
