David was seeming like a nice guy but really was not being reasonable with us like he acted ..after being paid. I told him our budget . He said everything's going to be great. The price he gave me was a bit over budget, but it was fine, until he found more things what we would need to pay for like our own royalty free music, getting props, cast members all things stated he would cover by phone and in the contract. He later exsplained we would need to pay for these things extra under certain circumstance , made sure to mention that after we gave a deposit. He justfied things by saying " you don't need royalty free music" after exsplaining our video could get shutdown completely , ask yourself, why wouldn't you want royalty free music in this situation ? I even asked if it could be a problem beforehand. Other issues occurred , an after giving it thought with my colleges we decided to try cancel the project, he started getting whiny and pouty. I told him I was sorry it's a bit too exspensive for us. It had only been one week, we were not far into proparing at all, and his contract states a 225 $ cancellation fee we were happy to pay, he even told me that was fine than changed his mind and charged us 200 dollars more (which I'm pretty sure is illegal) for putting up an ad for cast members . He justfied that by saying " I don't work for free" . What work bro? haha He did 20 dollars work tops ! and that was more than covered in the cancellation fee but charged us extra 425 $ to cancel. I have text messages ,pictures, emails, and receipts to prove everything I said above, feel free to reach out to me with any questions. No dening there previous work is good, and he did try to accommodate the high pricing with un-money related ideas but at the end of the day it was too exspensive and wouldn't give a fair refund when we couldn't accept it.
