    “Swing” is the term we use for doing a little bit of everything on a film set…need a light setup? Done. Need cameras operated? I got you. Need someone to handle audio? Coming right up! I’m well rounded in all these categories and can swing roles many times on a film set. This is the most common way I’m hired to assist production companies.

    Editing is quoted at a fixed rate during pre-pro based on the project’s SOW and outlined deliverables. This helps you, the client, not be surprised by a larger bill if I underestimate the editing time. It also helps me not be penalized for efficiency.

Production rates do not include kit or gear rentals, unless otherwise noted. Additional equipment from my gear list can be rented.

Production rates are based on a 10 hour full day, or a 5 hour half day. Any time spent in a single day over 5 hours is billed at a full day rate. Additional time up to 2 hours beyond a full 10 hour day are billed time and a half. Additional time after 12 hours in a single day are billed double time.

Milage may be added to your estimate pending filming location. Any production that requires being away for 16 or more hours in a single day, or require a departure time before 530am or return time after 12am, may have appropriate lodging, travel and per diem added to the estimate.

Travel days to or from a production, or down days between production days while on a road trip, are billed at half production rate. i.e. if I travel on day 1 (half rate), have production on day 2 (full day rate), return travel on day 3 (half rate)…you’d be billed for 2 full production days.

Additional crew members are quoted separately if you would like me to organize a team.

I hold my own liability and equipment insurance and can provide COI if requested. I also have separate drone insurance.

I understand some projects have smaller budgets, but I enjoy investing into the right ones. Other projects have higher budgets and you can afford to pay me more.
