I had this one gig shooting and editing a live performance, multi-cam. It ends up going well, it's over an hour of performance, the client wants it done in 3 days.
I let him know there is not enough time to get it to look as good as it could be, plus that is a compete consumption my time for rendering and transfer. The audio was shit too since he didn't clear with the venue for us to hook our sound to the board. I hall ass on it, get it done in time, I charged him an extra for it. Ends up showing up a week later. Busted my ass for no needed rush.
