Hello everybody
I've got a little question s.euch times.
For about 3 years I have worked in television as a cameraman. Lately, I often think to myself that I would like to own, because I want to try actually prefer directed corporate videos / advertising, and turn my luck again in this direction.
Now to me, however, raises the question of what Prices here are the "norm". It is already clear to me that the after the camera, light, cost, etc. directed, but perhaps someone here so I can give you some tips.
Quasi from professional to novice.
Thank you in advance.

Step 1: practice spelling. As "Providence" no one takes you seriously.
Step 2: Think about how to get s.Kunden - through predatory pricing or by convincing performance. Earning money is only with the second option.
Basic rule: as a freelancer with your own equipment and full responsibility, you get only a green branch when the current rate is at least EUR 1,000. It must be able to stop selling when the potential customer to Google "image film at a fixed price of 490 EUR" discovered. Good luck!
Antwort von ChristophF:
oops, there has crept probably a mistake.
Thanks again for your comment.

Think synonymous - you just have to convince. When you say you're a professional cameraman, then the performance of her not be so difficult. :-)
Times I'd say, man must be (as you now say you work your way back "neuling"). :-)
Love Greetings

Quasi from professional to novice. Next time you you'd have to consider what role you of where you want to take companies to be established. You know you because with certain topics so well that you can then synonymous doing the real work and that there are reasons to award a contract to s.Dich exactly?
Or would you want to draw s.Land orders, then pick some authors with the boat, and then participate as a cameraman, and possibly as a cutter? Or rather you need someone who acquires for you, and you would then take over completely the rest? Because they're talking about many variants are conceivable, but that from a standing start is not so simple. It is better to work first with other companies in this field, only to realize after and to their own jobs.
Especially since you have to even go shopping only once synonymous, and for this you should allow at least an initial capital of EUR 100,000, and that is the absolute minimum. Suitable premises synonymous you need.
If you you're not sure you can grab it, you'd better continue working as a cameraman before you have a pile of debt at the end s.der cheek.

@ Pianist: The seed money with the $ 100000 MINIMUM is still absolute rubbish.
He wants to enter a new field of foot and has to start for lack of references in this field erstmal with smaller movies. He'll hardly without reference t-mobile, or can demonstrate to BMW.
Should he be set in your opinion for small-and advertising industry allerbestenfalls 3000-6000 Euro budget movies with a studio? Best synonymous equal nen hallenfüllenden green screen, we could perhaps times need? Ne secretary, just in case call two people at once? And pre-order ne Epic?
@ ChristophF: Lend you adjust your equipment, rotating with nem acquaintances together for tepid 2-3 Reference movies and then, yes, go Klingelputzen at companies where your reference movies.
And in parallel you make your next permanent job that feeds you. "

@ Hans Mole
Thank you for your comment. Something in the direction I had already thought synonymous. Have very many growers in the area. Will probably try it in that direction times.
Studio is already there, because I actually come from the photograph.

@ Pianist: The seed money with the $ 100000 MINIMUM is still absolute rubbish. Why? This can be computed quite easily. Anything else would be frivolous. He is a real cameraman who has also previously worked with real cameras and would then of course in business no less. Incidentally, it is quite synonymous no preference as to whether the movies are cheap or expensive, because the clients always want the best quality and best service, no preference how much or little they pay. And of course always immediately. Therefore, the lease option is usually not practical.
If he wants to build an advantage over large competitors, then he must be completely self-sufficient and flexible offer, so on their own complete production chain. That does not mean that he immediately set up a studio with cove needs, but he needs a complete mobile camera-and sound equipment and a sound editing suite with the ability to make synonymous with equal voice and sound mixing.
If he has, of course, the opportunity to realize the project together with others, then anyone can contribute his share and then you can get the investment rather synonymous to grips with. However, when the risk of falling out of a GbR very large.
Of course, it may appear plausible at first glance, first parallel to the next station to work and slowly glide into independence, but that of course brings significant problems in terms of flexibility over time with him. If only he s.einem or two days a week next to the transmitter is working, then it is possible these days are not for his own orders. And how do you want to succeed in convincing the customer about it, if and to have time when you yourself have the time?

@ Pianist:
Long term, I'll give you quite happy. The short and medium term, but not at all. He still has no prospects and customers as he writes, he wants to rantasten s.The issue.
Just as you walk out of the wrong group of customers for him. Since reaching for my experience, the myth of Horror customers, all framed in gold and s.besten s.selben day or will have, not yet.
I know the situations when it's time now to customers with larger must be the same. But even then I never had problems of equipment necessary zuzuleihen nem other companies.
Sure, nen laptop with editing software synonymous he himself needs. But everything else is in my opinion at this stage actionist nonsense. And that creates risk, which he did not need.
Oh yes, and the temporal finiteness: How professional is it then when he opens his calendar and says, Yes, no, I always have time ...? Then he has to halt two days have orders ... Where is the problem?
@ ChristophF:
On the subject of wine: Sure, use what you have in your environment, but the important consideration that should always be synonymous with reference to your movies, whether the industry sowas needs and more importantly, the coal has ... No idea whether small wineries that are the right ones. [/ List]
