Just a Warning

I have recently had the miss fortune to work with The Most Unprofessional Director I have ever found.

I admit it was not theater, but one has to eat.

My agent found me work with Emma Green for a film Leadfoot

My agent told me there woud be
1) contracts,but no payment if no sales
2) a costume department
3) a professional make up artist
4) propper support
5) a professional production and crew

what there was :
1) no contract ( I was doing it for the exposure any way)
2) I had to provide my own costume
3) I had to do my own makeup, with my own stuff, and do other people as well, again with my gear
4) no support, little help
5) times very loose, shots scheduled for 6.00 often did not start untill 9.00 or 10.00
6) Props were often not there, and had to be improvised

I have heard of other problems like members of the producton team getting "Sacked" and techies not getting paid for things like gear rental and stuff.

Why don't you ALL stop this childish bitching session on air. This is meant to be a forum for the expression of views and ideas NOT a tit for tat. Conduct your private feuds where they should be, in private
