I am looking for a film student to help develop, film and edit a 30 minute documentary. It is a three week project which pays $1000.00. It involves some writing or research. Starts next week. Please email me at shaewsky@yahoo.com with film school experience.

Are film students really cheap- that's what I'm reading into this... Because most of the one's at my film school wouldn't be caught dead on a cheap gig if it didn't involve huffing coffee for Spielberg.

Some other bright guy here said it before: "They're cheaper because they'er worth it". You *might* get surprised occasionally by getting a true prodigy volunteering to work for peanuts and the experience, but usually you pay nuts, you get squirrels.

She offers opportunity.
It all depends on perspective, really. When out, I didn't look at it as being exploited. I saw it for what it was... an opportunity to get paid a little bit to learn more than I did when I was paying a college to learn a little.
All budgets don't allow A crews. This is where opportunity awaits hungry students.
