    For us, Existing clients get a bill when the job is done and they are happy. They pay in due time. That is fine.

    First-time clients; we get 50% down up front and the rest when work is complete and Before delivery.

    Outta town-NEW clients – Full payment up front.

    This became a hard and fast rule after being ripped off a couple times.

    Deliver a time-code burn copy.
    You get your clean master when we receive final payment.
    Sorry, just our policy.

    Did you shoot some buffer or head nodding? Close up? Wide?
    Just cut each take and use it. You may need to not have them both on screen the whole time to make it work.

    Did you use a copy and verify software like P2CMS or Shotput to transfer the P2 files from the P2 card onto hard drive?

    If not,

    Did you copy the complete card?

    Ya, keep the levels a little lower in one channel.
    Also, I find when you have many interviews in a short time, Using a boom is easier b/c there is no fussing around with them and the lav.
    They walk in, they sit, and almost ready…

    It is in 24p mode that you have the option to shoot VFR. After selecting 720p/24 you would then (if you want) select a frame rate between 5 and 60. Variable Frame Rate.

    If you want to shoot realtime/24p you then select the 24p frame rate.
    Make sense?

    Like Shane Mentioned, Use sticks and watch you movements and pans.
