Warning: the 18 hour figure for shooting in July heat caught me off guard
I was reading a piece from a Phoenix production shop last month that said summer shoots burn through 18 percent more crew hours than the same shoot in November, mostly from heat breaks and gear cooling down. That number stuck with me because I've been quoting flat day rates for outdoor jobs in July around Tucson without thinking twice about it. What got me was where I found it, buried in a case study about a car commercial shot here in 2022 where they lost half a day just keeping cameras from overheating. So now I'm wondering if anyone here pads their summer quotes for heat time or just eats it. How are you all handling mid-day outdoor shoots in June and July?
