Names to avoid: Simon Hannigan and “Dad the Dish”
Mad Dog 2020 Casting: in financial difficulties, not paying its workers.
A company not paying its bills and not responding to those it owes money to.
Michal Dziubinski. Kadale Carew. Snatching Sanity.
Other crew are being paid - but not these runners.
Scott Altman. Defunct Films.
A company which doesn’t feel the need to pay people for the work they are doing.
Andrew Smith. Marathon Services.
Freelancers beware this company - it doesn’t pay its bills.
Peter Wilson NMUK.
It seems that the spell at Her/His Majesty’s Pleasure has done little to persuade Vladimir Peter Wilson to join the ranks of honest upstanding citizens. A look at his latest activities.
Callum Johnston (aka Common Wisdom). Stone Empire Films.
Big red warning signs over this individual.
John Pavlakos fails to pay his cast and crew…again.
Producer John Pavlakos has struck again. The man with the worst reputation for non payment of his workers in the business has made another film.
Worthily Films – avoid!
Despite numerous requests from many people, neither of the owners of this company, Steve Dodsworth and Chelsea Leigh Macleod, were able to say why this work would not be paid at least the legal minimum. * This post has now been UPDATED
Aaron Thomas. It’s So Hard To Say Goodbye.
Sigh. Another dodgy company has slithered out of the shadows. This film catchily (or not) called “It’s so hard to say goodbye“. Strong recommendation to freelancers to tread carefully if offered work by him or any of his companies.
Maia Films. Kennington Film Studios. Fortemus Films.
Avoid this company. The individual behind Maia Films/Kennington Film Studios/Fortemus Films (Andrew Greener) has a longstanding and very poor record for failing to pay freelancers who work for his companies on time, and sometimes at all.
Janet Marrett. Kashif Boothe. Mediathirsty Productions.
This company has recently recruited someone to work on a production and then failed to pay them the minimum wage to which they are entitled.
