roundbadge Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Oh man.that is hilarious and so true Some of my favorite lines when some random lo ball producer/pm calls: "Hey I got your number for so and so" "we have a great new young director." "He's a great guy! ..really talented. "the script is amazing!" he went to "blah blah blah school.. ..you should see his reel! the dp is Joe Blow..he shot Blah blah blah" ..the project is gonna be really fun.." "we don't really have any budget on this one ..but.. next time.." "can you do $500 for everything?" "everyone on the crew is working on a flat of $100 a day so you'll be getting waay more than anyone else..because we all know that sound is really important!" "Boom operator? oh no no..we can't afford one err.. I mean no you won't need one..you can just wire everybody right? and if you really need a boom op we have my second cousins cousin 'Jed" who's a PA as well" uh ..but um, yeah..err..you know.. the budget is really tight on this one.. ..but 'So and So' said you were great!" Uh jeez..lemme check my schedule.. lol -Hunter .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
