1 plug on tx

For that kind of sound package you should charge the least $800/day...

Heck Sergio I don't think a big feature mixer get's $800 a day for a
full
film package. No client in the ENG, EFP, Corporate world is going to
hire a
mixer with a package for those kinds of rates. Nice dream, but not
reality.

I'm just charging between 450 and 1250 per 10 hours... equipment
included. The Net jobs, I get to use the photographer's gear so...
it's the "Labor" rate of aprox 400 for 8... if I'm to genlock
(trilevel or whatever)two or more cameras... or just show them all a
slate... it's going to cost$. All the old "standards" are out the
window... every man for hisself!!! bee good, charge what you want...

@200 per day... WTF sinking the ship for everyone... that is the the
"Anchor" in all the crap heard here from supposedly experienced ops.
JeEEZus... I ' know veggies are cheaper... but how long can you live
with your parents ???

What's with all the anger? We are not talking commercials or high end jobs
here...we are talking about running around with a bag and a couple of
wireless. You just are not going to find clients in my neck of the woods
that are going to pay big bucks for gear. You can find a well equipped sound
mixer with decent experience for between $450 and $700 inclusive ANYWHERE in
the USA. I'm not dragging anything down...I'm on the high end for Seattle.
When I talk with producers coming to town they aren't paying anyone anywhere
much more. Who is paying you a thousand bucks for a bag job?
