Price of a DOP?

Hi Sean,
I can DOP for you for travel and expenses and deferred payment based on potential future income the film makes.

Interested in hearing more about the project.

Here is a link to my showreel- https://vimeo.com/655575911

Kind Regards,

Hi Sean,

The price of a DOP is an interesting question - in all honesty its the price that they are willing to do the project for.

My biggest advice is that you need to pick someone who you feel like you can work with, and has a similar idea for the project, as well as the ability to pull it off within your budget.

If you need someone with their own kit, don't just choose someone because of the equipment they own, the camera (and more importantly the lenses) are not the biggest tool you need, its the person operating and creating the visuals.

So go for someone you think you will get along with and like their work - no matter what your shooting on if they are good you will get some great images.

Don't forget that they ideally will need a team, of a 1st AC and a gaffer (and if you can do it a grip) to make the film as great as possible, and in all honesty Gaffers and Grips are more likely to demand "their rates" than a DOP who likes the project will.

If it was a commercial job then APA has set rates, but drama things are a bit more fluid if that makes sense.

Hope this helps.
