Thanks! What happens if you are in a commercial and they don't see your face but only part of your body interacting with the other actors (you get direction and your task is important for the commercial), would there still be a buyout or just a day rate?
I have a question. For Non-Union, So if it has more than one day of work. For example, if its 5 days of work and the session rate is $1000, does that mean I'll be getting paid $5000 in total for all the days outside of whatever the buyout rate is?
The buyout is listed in the original casting post. If they want to do a buyout or a flat rate, it will be listed on the casting and will come with the paycheck. This is how it was in the jobs I have done in CA 😊 hope it helps!
Super helpful video! My RU-vid account is @jennaquinter . You are the only video I could find regarding this information. Thank you! I’ll watch more of your information on here.
Hi Lena 😊 No, if it is a buyout rate, you get paid one time after filming. If it is not a buyout, you get paid for the usage for a certain amount of time (usually 1-3 years) and if they want to use it for longer, they pay you again and will usually work with your agent to negotiate that extended usage rate unless they already included what the extended usage rate would be. This might be confusing still. I'll make a short! 🤔😁
I find that being a part of a community that would be interested in your video is helpful in getting subscribers. Do you watch any of the RU-vid channels that teach you how to grow your channel? I can comment some links here if you would like! 😊
