Pricing fixer and filming services in Vietnam
When planning about filming in Vietnam or hire a fixer in Vietnam, one of the biggest question that any producer/production company needs to ask is: how much does it cost?
It’s important for budgeting. Usually, a producer/production company needs to contact different fixers/filming services to learn about pricing to find the most suitable cost in comparison with quality. It’s not about being the cheapest, it’s about being the most cost effective. It’s about choosing a good film fixer with a good price.
When discussing about filming costs, there are several things that you need to make clear:
- Does the cost include or exclude accommodation, transportation and food?
- What’re the responsibilities that associated with that quote? Should there be a contract/agreement?
- How many working hours for the quote that quoted and what is the over time fee?
- What’s the deposit/down payment required?
- What’s the payment method?
- What’s the currency to be paid (USD, VND, EUR, GBP, CAD, AUD, )? What’s the exchange rate?
