Lead on a 10-day ReelShort shoot — here's what I actually made

Got cast as the female lead for a ReelShort micro drama. 10 shooting days, 12-14 hours each. Rate was $800/day flat, no overtime. Meals were provided but craft services was basically snacks. The director was professional but the schedule was brutal — we shot 15-20 pages per day. Would I do it again? For the money, yes. For the conditions, I'd negotiate harder on hours.
