    Best way to film a straight shot?

    What's the best way to measure a straight shot? Do you know of any technical way of doing this? Basically filming parallel to an object (or someone facing the camera in a wide shot). Thank you.

    Will an advertisement on the truck im renting ruin the atmosphere?

    I think it might be too late, it sounds like hes set on having his advertisement be shown on the video. Do you think it was a mistake to ask him for permission and we should have just covered it without saying anything or would that be inconsiderate? :D

    Do actors expect pay on the same day as wrap up?

    Jesus christ im falling to pieces. If I have a 1 day film shoot is it expected I pay them at the end of that day? Or is it no big deal to pay them next week? Or maybe half now, half later?
