Yeah, I understand the concern. I'm a freelance photographer (have been since 2000) and I prefer to work for cash. However, I do take on projects from time to time in exchange for a % of future income.

I'm currently filming a documentary for a band under such conditions. I believe in their music and their passion and I know there is a market for the DVD once it is a tangible product.

I know it might take some time but, I can find others that believe in my passion and vision to make this highly profitable and successful. I just need to know where such people congregate.

I'm all about building a team. That is for sure. This is my second go at this and I learned a lot before my brain fried out haha. I am not about to make the same mistakes twice.

I do appreciate the suggestion about trading hours for hours. I do enjoy bartering for services/goods with my photography (just did a simple shoot in exchange for a heap of brand new hockey goalie equipment, wee!). I didn't even consider that option for teaming up with a programming team. So, thank you for that.
