Richard, This project is a Christian film that God has sent me to produce. People need a whole lot more than what Hollywood is dishing out... it ia auch an underserviced area. Chris -

Phil, I agree but Christianity is NOT a religion but a relationship. Chris -

Richard, A church goer does not mean a particular person is Christian. The questions is do they have a relationship with JC? That is all that really matters... Chris -

Rodrigo, What exactly are you asking? A quote? That seems a lot for two days... Are you putting together a production yourself? Chris -

David, I am not hostile to DPs. I am being critical and maybe that is what you mean. You don't like me saying their ways are bad. A lot like the way Jesus was with Jews and High Preists. -

$500.00/day on a low budget film is not a deal:( -

To add something further I just felt floored I suppose at the things that some of them think they can get away with. One DP wanted $5000.00 USD flat for my feature without even asking the budget and went on he wanted this and this and this... I mean that must be nice just to rhyme of what you want - but this is not the real world instead of what he should've done - bargained with me. He said he was not in a position to work for free ( no one was asking him to). I mean it just gets to the point who is working for who here. I am sorry you cannot be the DP and call the shots. You can't have it both ways... -

Rik, I don't expect crew to work for free, just meet me halfway. Making a feature on a sub 5K 24p is very hard indeed. I did not properly inform you. This is only 24 minutes so more of a short. It still has it's challenges. I have no problem feeding the crew or putting up the lodging. I DO expect professionalism on the set which apparently have a problem with. Do they want work or not? -

TSM, I have an interested DP and one that understands my vision. She is a Christian which helps. -

Kevin, No problem with anything that you've said. I want to explain again I did not/am not here to bash DPs. I recognize that it is a craft, one many are gifted at and that the Cinematography is the most important part of the production team. Again allow me to apologize for any misunderstanding. -
Hey, Anyone know where I can find movies that were shot on the Panasonic DVX-100? Any out on DVD? CHRIS My Blog: www.filmmakersblog.blogspot.com

Hey, I am aspiring Writer/Director/Producer working on my first project that will be shot on 24p! I am/was/still am searching for a Director of Photography for my project. My questions is why are Cinematographers so hard to work with/deal with? They either don't want to travel or won't work below their quota or are extremely picky witht he assignments they will accept. I had prospects of using a very skilled and well know DP around here (known by people in this forum). She seemed really interested until I spoke of behaviour and expectations on set (this is a Christian film). I mean if I am paying to have them here I think I have the right here... Also it is a known fact established DPs work at $300.00-500.00 a day and demand to work at those levels. I have no problem with that but they seem to quote their rates without even asking what the budget is. I mean if you want 500 bucks a day you need to find assignments with suitable budget levels. On a sub 5K DV budget you are not going to be making $500.00/day as a cinematographer. What do you think? This other DP I aquired about sent me a very professional resume with reel (it was really good). But said he was willing to negotiate but didn't work below $250.00/day and was not in a position to work for free (though I was not asking him to). Said he wanted return trip and at least one hot meal served to him on set a day. I mean I guess I found it demanding. I guess DPs don't really see the Director/Producer as their employer/supervisor but really should. Why are they so hard to deal with? CHRIS Check out my blog: www.filmmakersblog.blogspot.com
