When It Is Too Little Compensation

Apr 27th, 2009 by Alan Yu

I was reading a post today where a production was looking for a female who was willing to shave her head bald to work on a film. However, the payment for doing so was about $10/hour. I was just thinking how that was ridiculously low in doing something that you will have to deal with even after the productions for months.

Especially if you are an actor that does other work where you have to look a certain way, things like this you have to consider as doing it will affect all of your future opportunities as well. While it is definitely more about the opportunity, something like say simple background work wouldn’t be worth it I’d say.
