This is a little off-topic, but I've been sifting through director treatments for over a week now. I'm seeing a trend. The treatments are HUGE. Like, 50 slides or more. A humble request from the receiving end of director treatments--less is WAY more. Hire a copywriter or a creative team that's good at getting the vision and distilling it quickly. Clever is nice until it beats you over the head for 62 slides.

That is a great idea.

this treatment will be 12 pages max lol. any idea about a day rate?

$750/day generally for treatment writer!

like

It depends on the hours of work. I’d say at least 3 days if they’re worth your money. I’d budget $1k a day at least. I’ll do it for you, I’ve done dozens.

I know in Toronto it’s $750 a treatment. Not helpful for LA, but as a point of reference for somewhere else.

I haven’t paid for writing. Most of the directors I work with write themselves. However I do work with freelance treatment designers. That’s usually $600 a day and a treatment we do (10 to 15 page max. Sometimes less) is a couple days. Just for reference in case you need images / design also. So $1200.

In 2008 I charged $200 a day.

Received a job offer. Was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on a concern I had about it. It's an entry level position, and I don't have much experience. The billables are 2040 a year. For billable hours in civil litigation and insurance defense, is 2040 hours for a 1st year associate on the high end in this field for a small or midsize firm? It seems like most attorneys I know have minimum requirements of around 1800. The compensation is around 80k a year.
