Hey guys,
not sure if im posting this in the correct place, if not could a mod please move it?
Basically I shoot a lot of short films, however a friend of mine who works for a large local company has approached me and asked about me shooting a corporate/pr video of an event they have coming up in a couple of weeks, Im wondering if you guys have any experience of what to charge for these sorts of things? The guy who has asked me to do it, is a good friend of mine so I don't want to rip him off, however as he is just the person who has been asked to organise it, he is happy for me to make some good money out of it, as far as i can tell the rest of the event seems pretty much money no object. So Yeah basically do you guys have any advice?
Specs:
3 day event (although main part of the event is the last day, Saturday)
I will probably have to rent a camera, as my dslr will be used for stills (also maybe doesn't look so professional for a run and gun corporate event)
I will definitely have to rent some wireless lapel mics.
Also they have said I can just give them the raw footage, however if i want they will pay me to cut it, which quickly turns a 3 day shoot into a 2 week job.
anyway some advice would be amazing haha, as this is not my usual sort of gig!
