Re: [videoblogging] What to charge for camera and video editing

2008-11-03 Thread Ben Halverson
I would take the total amount of money you want to make for taping and  
divide by the number of hours you will be working
Total $/hrs wrk = pay per hour

You might also want to include gas used at the rate of .37 cents per  
mile

You could do the same for editing

I've had the same problem on one of my videos. I tried on safari and
