My experience: there is no half day rate. A day is a day=you forfeit your day to one client and turn down other jobs. If the job takes 5 hrs vs 8 it’s still a day. Exceptions are overtime not “undertime”. Unless you charge hourly which is less common
^ Exactly. Crews don’t get paid 1/2 day rates nor should you. There are days when I work 12 hours and days when I may work 7. It all evens out in the end.
Chicago for context
Shoots are never a half day unless you have a huge staff of assistants, stylists and techs moving and lifting everything and setting up/tearing down for you. It’s going to take the whole day.
