I'm new to the industry. What is typical in this situation?:
I assisted a photographer on a shoot for a tourism magazine.
We left our town at mid-day, flew 3.5 hours to the city in question,
and started shooting pronto. That was day 1. We then shot lots through days 2, 3, 4 and 5. We returned home around 3:30 in the afternoon on day 6. We didn't shoot at all on that day. That day's itinerary, which we had received from the client, was reserved for reshooting anything we would have needed to reshoot.
My question: Given that there is no shooting taking place but that my availability is taken up by the job, is an assistant typically remunerated for this last day?
Thanks for any help.
