From a flat in Buiucani
In March 2019 the work moved to Strada Armenească 15. Before that it went out of a flat in Buiucani: one window, no gate, cases carried up four flights.
The company is Businesi Contres S.R.L., IDNO 1023600045187. Two of us keep the diary, the grade, and the keys. On a film day a third person comes in for focus and the second body. We answer in Romanian, Russian, and English. The invoice is in Romanian.
Eight hours in the hall
A stills day in the hall is eight hours with the lights that live here. A film day is the same length, one camera, shots listed before the call. If you book both, the set stays and the invoice shows one day, not two. The figures are on the terms page, and the estimate repeats them before you pay the deposit. The deposit is 40 percent. The date is held when it arrives.
Inside Chișinău the day rate includes the travel, whether the job is the hall, a room on București, or a pavement in Centru. Outside the city, a vineyard, Cricova, Orhei, we price the day before we hold it. We do not fly the kit. We do not put a drone in the air. If a job needs a permit from Primăria municipiului Chișinău, you apply, and the date stays provisional until you tell us it is granted.
A family can book the hall as an ordinary stills day, with the same estimate and the same delivery. We do not sell a same-day wedding package. Quiet sound does not happen in the courtyard after 16:30. If the brief needs a voice, the blackout room is the room, and we say that at the recce.
Selects in four working days. Full stills in nine. A graded film in sixteen. Working days are Monday to Friday. A public holiday in the Republic of Moldova moves the delivery by the day it takes. The phone is answered during hall hours. If we are in a take, we call back before 18:00.
