The person was allegedly stiffed by Leon Butler, a producer, for kit hire costs amounting to 12.5k, along with legal fees. However, before the person could obtain a CCJ against them, the company allegedly went into administration. Camilla Storey was allegedly involved in the situation with Butler and was his accomplice. It is believed that the executives of the film, The Chelsea Cowboy, are suing Butler, and the person intends to do the same. The company was allegedly in production while insolvent, and they falsely claimed to have financiers when no such agreement existed.

This person allegedly failed to pay for work. Although he told the production team that he allegedly overspent on the budget, there is a significant amount of evidence to suggest otherwise. He also made alleged unauthorized purchases using the budget, including tools and an expensive 3D printer that was unnecessary for the film. Additionally, he ordered excess materials that were not needed and are now in storage. After the film wrapped, he took money from the production team’s contingency budget to pay the workers but claims that his bank consumed the funds.

Phillipe Martinez

dgarcenal — Wed, 15 Mar 2023 12:13:34 +0000

Philippe, who has a history of Film-related fraud charges, allegedly continues to produce films unethically. As a result, many crew members and vendors who had invested weeks in pre-production and shooting have not received their full or partial payments, and some have not been paid at all. Meanwhile, Martinez has faced numerous alleged fraud lawsuits around the world, and was even allegedly imprisoned for six months in France. It’s likely that those who didn’t take legal action, such as the state of Florida, were too embarrassed to acknowledge that they had been deceived.

Ryan Levon Roman and Angelis Martinez

Ryan Levon Roman and Angelis Martinez allegedly rent cameras for long periods and never pay for them or return them. A major red flag is that they do not have production insurance as they’ve allegedly already been banned by the insurance companies. They often look for same-day rentals so you do not have enough time to background check them. They insist on working with wires and bank transfers to allegedly avoid payment. Check this ESTA search for more information. They are mostly active in the US.
