Tiene 16 años. Es posible que el equipo y los precios hayan cambiado desde entonces.
Lo que encontró el hilo
- Las principales redes como NBC y CBS suelen pagar alrededor de $2000 al día más $600 para una cámara auxiliar para mostrar los principales y envolturas
- Non-union operators in New York have reported being undercut by competitors willing to work for rates below $300 per day for full-day assignments
- Production companies have been known to offer $500 flat for half-day work with major network talent, which experienced operators consider unacceptably low
- Lower rates are being offered even for positions requiring extensive experience and references, which contributes to market-wide rate pressure
- Young non-union operators trying to build experience and reels face difficulty competing when established operators accept significantly reduced rates
Depende de
- Discussion is specific to New York market in 2010
- Rates mentioned reflect non-union and union baseline only; actual rates vary by production type and individual negotiation
- Some participants suggested low-bidding producers may lack experience and understanding of industry standards rather than deliberately undercutting
- The extent to which rate-cutting actually displaced established operators is based on participant anecdotes rather than systematic data
