 A production will run only as smoothly as its crew. Learn which crew members are essential and how to find them. This module covers not only the Hollywood crew structure, but also two basic variations for low budget productions. Learn how to find and approach qualified crew members, how to negotiate deals on pay, what standard pay rates are and how to maintain a happy, productive crew during the course of the shoot.
Jason Tomaric shot two independent feature films with completely volunteer crews and he shares with you his secrets to keeping the budget low.

"Jason proves that top-notch production values are within the reach of anyone who has ever dreamt of making his own movie. You’ll learn far more about filmmaking with this practical, thorough and meticulously organized DVD set than you ever will watching "Project Greenlight." Jason knows what he’s talking about, because he’s actually done it!"
