Can you arrange my travel visas for me?

We would love to help you out there, but unfortunately it is something that each indivisual must do on their own. As all the programs are less than 3 months, tourist visas are all that is required. Perhaps in the future we will be able to offer other visas. If you need any letters for your consulate or embassy, please let us know.

How much is the deposit for a program? By which dates must the deposit/full amount be paid? If I cancel, will I be refunded by deposit?

The deposit is 50% of the full program cost. This is due 60 days before the date of commencement as we need to have exact numbers and enough time to plan accordingly. The full amount is due 30 days before commencement of the program. The deposit is non refundable. The program cost (minus the deposit) is refundable if you are unable to make it due to some unforeseen circumstance. Basically, payment of the deposit sets you in for a spot, and cancellation is not only expensive and time consuming, but it can change our entire program or plan, especially since our minimum is only five participants. For those of you REALLY wanting to join a program, but struggling to pay the program fees, check out our TRAVEL 4 FREE page.

Can I pay on a payment plan?

This can certainly be arranged. We know how hard it can be to save up by your own accord, when life is so expensive nowadays. We can work out a payment plan with youm so you can pay a certain amount per week, fortnight or month leading up to the payment deadlines. Cancellation is 50% of the total amount deposited, never to exceed the full amount of deposit.

Why is there no airport pick up or drop off?

This is because people are arriving from all parts of the world, and at all times of the day and night. If we find that participants are all arriving in proximity, we will actually do an airport pickup, otherwise you must cab it. Your info pack will include all this information, including how much the cab should cost, and how long the trip will be. We will also give you a piece of paper to give to the cab driver telling him that we know the prices, and we will be paying at the other end, to avoid rip off cabbies. We will estimate your time of arrival and will be waiting for you with a nice glass of ice cold water, a hot chocky or some vino.

If I am not satisfied with the program, can I get my money back?

Unfortunately, programs are not refundable, as they are costly to us, still being a small up-and-coming enterprise. However we do everything to ensure you know exactly what to expect before you embark on an adventure, and we do everything we can to have an open dialogue with you, and listen to any particular advice or requests you might have while on the adventure. We are always available to chat with via skype leading up to the program. We realize they are expensive, and that you might want to chat about it before financially embarking on it.

Can I choose the role I will play on a film, behind or in front of the camera?

You can most certainly tell us beforehand which particular roles you would like to play, and your expectations for the film and your position on it. We do not want you to be disappointed, so open dialogue is necessary before we meet up. Generally, we all share the duties, and each have our hand at a number of positons. On some programs, one films may go into production, while on other programs there may be a few, this is why we need to know early on how many people will be joining us. Usually Melanie C. wil direct or co-direct the films.

Can you guarantee that my film will be seen at festivals?

We can never guarantee anything, but we can practically "assure you" (just another theasaurus term for it!) that your film will be screened at, at least one festival. We cannot guarantee which festival however.
