I heard through the Grape vine; That multiple shooters have been getting paid as a result of this thread.


When stand up producers say something, seems that shit gets done.


Have to give Kudos to ATK for making good. Small payments and open communications is better than nothing.



Just Dave

a lie. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

every shooter I know says the same thing about ATK

bashing...jesus

bump
Kim owes me a few grand + 2 shooters not mentioned in this thread that I am aware of are still owed.

You're welcome.

Good luck to those still waiting...and waiting.

strange reaction by Kim....calls a friend to complain that I bumped this thread but doesn't email/call me to say there's a payment on the way. not that i'd believe it at this point...but still.

Kims Payments and Communication have stopped
 

Kim has stopped payments and response to emails for the last two months.
Other photogs have same problem?
My attorney is ready at any time to proceed, but I will try to be more patient.

Sounds like quite the business they got going on over there.

Good luck buddy. So sad to hear that you're still wrangling with this matter :Oh crap

You might be waiting a while longer to get paid unfortunately. Kim's been going hog wild spending our money on business acquisitions, travel and getting laid instead of paying his bills. I heard direct from the agents and models that he's overpaying $2400 per shoot to fuck porn chicks in Vegas, LA and even flying them out to exotic Hawaii so he can get pussy on other peoples' dime. And when he really fancies the girl he's needlessly booking them multiple times to the tune of up to $12k apiece just to keep them around for his amusement.

I've been getting paid off in dribs and drabs every couple of months for over a year now. My now still almost $4,000 balance is overdue by 14 months at this point. We're just not a priority to Kim and he clearly doesn't care about his reputation or abhorrent business practices. At this rate I'll be lucky see the rest of what I'm owed by 2015.

Thats fucked up. I'm glad I never started shooting for him.

Hoping Tobe, Jim and any others get paid there due. Since starting this thread I have been paid off in full. However, I am hearing (from third parties) that he continues to talk smack on me for starting this thread so expect your reputations to be attacked for expecting to be paid.

Here is a bump for this thread, producer still not getting paid...
 

So, some of you got paid, others didn't. There is more to this story which lingers on to this day...

God I loved The Craft as an angsty preteen. Never liked Nancy though - knew girls like her in HS

He would never pay up front, so we never shot for him. Credit is earned. Not given to anyone who asks.

Seriously these guys were such bad payers and paid such low prices. I could never figure out why people shot for them and gave them credit. Location, equipment, model, makeup, extras are all paid on the day or before the shoot.

To shoot content that's worth at least twice as much if sold via a content store. And the money keeps coming day in day out for years.

reminds me, I must update our ac content store :thumbsup

Everyone does.its sooner or later

I got a request to do yet another story on him because he isnt paying...come on guys at what point do yall wake up and realize that you aint special...he isnt going to pay you just like he hasnt paid how many others over the years...look at the date of the OP.....if you wanna shoot for ATK....do it COD I know I would.

might as well bump this ole classic
