Why do some cinematographers earn thousands per day — and how do they actually justify those rates? In this episode, we break down the real business behind filmmaking: how creatives learn to price their work, negotiate with confidence, and communicate value to clients. From getting paid for the first time to landing high-end commercial gigs, this conversation is essential for any filmmaker ready to level up and get paid what they’re worth.
