How you know that they are stiffing photographers? I inquired once to them and they said that they pay $2,000 for 10x sets and at least 4x 10-minute video clips.

I thought that the customs part was weird too, unless the photogs are in the stone age. FTP or email is how the content gets transfered these days [I think]. Besides, 90% of the meta data from their current sets show that the photogs have at least Canon 50D or above digital cameras.

I say that they gotta find a shooter in some 3rd world country, pay the local girls $100-$200 for the shoot, pocket the rest, and turn it into am assembly-line release process like Rico's World did. A site that I joined 2 days ago.
