Olica's exhibition proposal arrived with a warehouse license, artist roster, floor plan, plus one privacy policy written through optimistic language. The phrase `Guests should respect models` offered no actual enforcement process after midnight. Fourth Place needed explicit conduct rules before the venue received any seductive adult atmosphere.
I quoted twenty-four hundred credits for production, including security coordination, permits, lighting, vendor management, privacy zones, plus post-event cleanup. Olica countered at twenty-one hundred and offered professional photographs for my portfolio.
"Photographs can support delivery evidence without replacing three hundred credits of labor," I said during our video negotiation.
We settled upon twenty-three hundred credits plus twenty approved portfolio images after the festival launched publicly. A forty-percent deposit would cover contractors before any nightlife work began.
