DP Career Coach

Buy the camera, join the union, or chase two more days a month? Now you can see which one actually pays, and by how much. The calculator ranks every move open to you by what it is worth, in year one and across ten. And when something looks like free money but is not, it says so. A kit fee is not the price of the kit. The coach knows you now. Switch on your profile and it answers with your market, your day count, your union status. Ask what you could earn and you get a number back, not a questionnaire. It also knows the things you are supposed to already know. Which local covers camera. What a kill fee actually runs. Why a postponement is not a cancellation. Who owns the footage. What breaking your turnaround costs them. Every answer carries its source, because being confidently wrong on a set is the expensive kind of wrong. All of it rebuilt, and made for reading in the dark.
