Quote: On the may 7th shoot the camera broke and no shoot happened, yet Ms. Stephens wants her commission.
Not the agent's problem...they have fulfilled their end of the bargain, and thus quite rightly should expect payment.
DanG hits this one out of the park.....
If party A said that there was a shoot on 10/10/10 at 10:30pm for X amount of dollars and they wanted party B to provide X amount of models for said shoot. Then unless you have given ample time (minimum of 24 hrs or more) to party B then party B should be compensated at least for something (not the entire FULL FEE) somewhere in the nature of a "kill fee"...as they provided what you wanted from their end....the camera "breaking" is not their fault and sounds like it is shitty equipment problem and definitely not a good excuse for you not fulfilling your end of the bargain.
Quote: Just need to add my two cents as Ms. Stephens who manages her girls like a lady obsessed with control.
This I believe she acquired from her former boss Brian…..I can believe it. But I think you must understand this. That if you show the inmates that you’re not in complete control of the situation at all times (to most extents) that they will try and take over the asylum. Who we are speaking about (the PW’s) are far from angels to begin with…they are just as big as predators as their so called “agents” are…so if you let down your guard you will be played. It would be the same as a “streetwalker” trying to play a john as a “trick”…..
Don’t get confused…..women that go into porn are not as some people would like to think innocent little victims. They know EXCATLY what they are getting themselves into….and if they don’t they should be quite accustomed to being treated badly in general.
