I wasn't going to do this, but I have no choice but to comment on the fact that a producer who contracted with me on a freelance job has not lived up to his promise to pay. A couple of weeks ago, Leon Quenneville, of On-Q Productions, a video production company based in Scottsdale, Arizona contacted me to shoot a project for him. It was a last-minute deal, and I didn't want to slow down his project with a lot of paperwork and credit verification. Well, it may have cost me the value of the tapes and the time spent shooting and shipping the tapes to him. He had promised to pay up on the following week. When I contacted him to check on the hold-up, he suggested that the funds were on hold, but that payment would be sent via priority mail. Enough time has passed for payment to have arrived, so I can only suspect the worst, and warn others about working for him. When and if payment arrives, I will update this commentary to reflect that payment has arrived, but this cautionary note will remain in place. Sorry, Leon, but it was all up to you to take care of this matter. The fact that you have not paid up means that you pose a liability to those whom you would have work with you.
