rates
My time and training are both valuable. Rates are based on industry standards for fight choreographers, movement choreographers, and other intimacy professionals. Rates vary depending on the project, but I've provided the following estimates to help you budget.
I do not wish my rates to be prohibitive. All rates are negotiable--please contact me to inquire (lizwhittakeremail@gmail.com)

-
Communication with director, actors, and other members of the creative team
