Out of a sample of 120 listings, 52 were for a Film Payroll Accountant.

		<description><![CDATA[About 2 or 3 times a month I get a comment on this blog asking me if I can send a copy of a Hot Cost. From the tone of the request I sense that I am the last resort and the Hot Cost is a matter of getting the job as a key accountant or not getting it. I always oblige, but with a cringe because I know that without the background understanding of film and television payroll the Hot Cost won't mean a whole lot to them. Let's see what I can do about that.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=filmproduction.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2653159&amp;post=437&amp;subd=filmproduction&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

It occurred to me that a lot of people have asked for a template of the Hot Costs that I use and perhaps there is a demand for a webinar on Hot Costs.

		<description><![CDATA[Over the last 10 years, or so, Film Director’s have slowly started to be on the weekly distribution list to receive the weekly cost report – especially by the Major Studios (Disney, Warners, Universal, etc.). But, hey, very few film directors have a clue what to do with it. (Mind you, no one else but a Film Producer and a chosen few ever get to see it, so why would the Director know about it?). The poor director who gets a copy of the Cost Report is caught up as a character in a living ‘Dramatic Irony’ (per my dictionary that’s: ‘the irony occurring when the implications of situation, speech, etc. are understood by the audience but not by the characters in the play’.)<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=filmproduction.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2653159&amp;post=413&amp;subd=filmproduction&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

Before servicing this industry, or planning an audit of a film or television production for State tax credits, it is essential to understand the processes, industry standards and the ethics of not only the film accounting, but also of the producers and financiers of this very insular industry. <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=filmproduction.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2653159&amp;post=406&amp;subd=filmproduction&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
