A Studio Manager/Lighting Technician is assigned to each studio production and must be present at all times that the facility is occupied. As such, our clients may determine their schedule of operation independently of the other studios or of the facility as a whole. These individuals possess the technical skills necessary to be productive members of your lighting and/or scenic crew.
A production company which is a union signatory employs their Studio Manager directly per the terms of their agreement. Those clients who are not signatories are billed by High Output for these services at a rate of $575.00/8 hours.
After 8 hours, overtime rates take effect, incrementing once again at 12 hours and again at 16 hours. A 15% cost of employment surcharge is applied to the sum of these hourly wages. 10-hour rates are also available.
Experienced technical and production staff of every specialty are available locally. Please contact us if we may be of assistance with staffing. Studio power charges are assessed on pre-light and shoot days only. A fee of $75.00 is accrued per 100 amps of peak load. Once the 100 amp mark is surpassed, an additional $75.00 is assessed with no further charges forthcoming until the 200 amp mark is surpassed, and so on. No power charges are assessed on build and wrap days. Expendables A fully stocked expendables sales facility is on-site. Studio Lunch Room & Kitchen The studio lunch room & kitchen are available to our studio clients at no charge for catering & craft service. Use of the kitchen for food styling necessitates a $150.00/day cleaning fee. Basic trash removal is provided at no additional cost. The disposal of set elements, unused paint or other large or hazardous items may necessitate disposal fees. We will be more than happy to offer you expert catering suggestions! Feel free to give us a call on the High Output, Inc. main line @ 781.364.1800. You will be connected to someone interested in discussing your specific catering needs. Other Services
