My buddy worked on several of them in canada as a boom mic operator. Many sappy christmas films, but they do pay well.

I’ve worked on dozens of these as a camera assistant and one as a writer.
3 weeks with 2 mil would be a middle to higher end one. I’ve done ones that film in 10 days with 1 million. Usually in Vancouver.
The inner workings of these films are so stock and sloppy it’s incredible they have an audience.

It's almost like they're regurgitating the same general idea in almost every single movie or something. That is interesting though, it makes a lot of sense.
