I'm in the process of budgeting a doc for a non-profit that would be shot in Latin America in 2008 and 2009, for which I would need to hire an experienced doc cinematographer. There would be a total of 5 shoots, each lasting 10 days, with 2 travel days for each shoot (1 day leaving from Los Angeles, 1 day returning to Los Angeles, gone a total of 12 days per shoot).
I know that rates vary tremendously and that it's a long way off, but for the purpose of budgeting, what would be a reasonable rate to put in the budget for labor (NOT equipment, just labor) to be sure I'd be able to hire an experienced doc cinematographer?
Thanks
