If you are a set photographer or an aspiring one, the first rule of thumb is to NEVER let any production take advantage of you, your time or your talent. I see all these ads day in and day out offering no pay or very low pay ($50-100 day, really, working at 7-11 pays that). This is not right for our industry.
Little hint to all... Set photographers should be earning $250-$350 per 8 hour day on Low Budget projects and $500 Day on mainstream stuff (Movies/network shows). This DOES NOT include your box rental which you should be charging between $75-$200 per day for your equipment depending upon the project and what you are using (in addition to your day rate).
The Economy may be bad, but our talents deserve every penny that we earn.
(This is just some good solid advice, not an employment offer)
