Honestly depends on tier of project. National campaigning w several shoot day in an exotic location billed differently than a one day chroma studio shoot or talking head type situation. $1000 is typical for mid size project. But: Line producers can mark up line items their responsible for by anywhere from 5-40%. That's where their real money comes from. 🤫
