Hi everyone!
Im a young filmmaker with some experience in the field but still learning the craft. In the past years i've worked as a freelancer camera op/editor. Recently i got asked to shoot and edit a new TV reality Show for a Local Network. In my previous works ive been able to give my clients a flat rate kind of deal since these projects hasnt been that long between 3 to 4 weeks to shoot and edit. Now this is a little bit different since i do not have experience in TV shows . this one is 7 episodes (24 minutes each) and 5 and half month to shoot and edit. Now my question is : Should i charge hourly for both services or should i give them a flat rate? How much does camera Op and Editors charge for this kind of projects? Anyone who can help on this .
thanks in advance.
Sky.
