zazen Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 (edited) found this new Chris Cunningham ad via metafilter also this interesting bit of conversation on metafilter: xmutex said: Why isn't that guy making movies? dersins said: Shooting movies is really hard work and can take months, with (comparatively) low compensation considering how many working days are invested in the process. Directing commercials and music videos takes comparatively little time (most are shot in one day), and pays very, very well. Top commercial directors make upward of $100,000 / shooting day, and about half that for each prep and post day. i hadn't thought of that before Edited April 16, 2009 by zazen Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/44763-new-chris-cunningham-advert/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
