When the job is finished your production team contact us with the times and we bill you. You pay. That simple.

What are the rates for talent and technicians and how are these decided?
Rates differ depending on talent, skills, experience and demand. We can negotiate rates to suit your pocket. Rates are a market driven force that we do not control. We reccomend and advise.
