Failure to pay, claimed that he was unsatisfied with footage after an edit, even though he was fine with it while on set. He had paid for a previous shoot; just make sure you don't leave set without a check on the day.

Mark Burman / Eric Ricart / MEB / Macro Prod Services
MEB Entertainment has not paid their crew and cast from their last feature, Gravedigger, in October.
They embezzled money off the budget to pay for a different film, and then claimed that someone else didn't pay them money they were owed. They owe dozens of people tens of thousands of dollars.
They operate under the shady front company called Marcro Production Services. They never return phone calls, and send out occasional emails saying to be patient. People should not work for MEB, Macro, Mark Burman(producer) or Eric Ricart(line producer).

Charles Clemmons
Major player! I worked for him in October, 2005. He
screwed over the whole crew ..about 10 people for a
TV-pilot. I have since seen his name with complaints
and warnings for him on craigslist. So I put an ad out
myself on craigs to collect people whos been screwed
to sew him. Someone else then collected names and took
it to the Labor Department, and i dont know what has
happened. It looks like hes been screwing over at
least 50 people!
Here are the 2 addresses he gave me (Eucalyptus
address was on the bounced check):

NOTICE OF TERMINATION
In response to numerous complaints from both professional and personal sources, as well as taking in to consideration the continued best interest of our high standards and practices, it is without remorse that JAGO Productions has released Mr. CHARLES CLEMMONS from his position as a producer and director.
It is unfortunate that a man with as much creative talent as Charles would be the subject of mistrust and accusations of being a con artist, but as such, the production company as a whole cannot, and will not allow the actions of one employee to taint the good name and mission of JAGO PRODUCTIONS, which is to produce high quality, original and genuine independent films, and to maintain well-regarded professional and personal relationships with any and every person who is involved with our projects.

The return of CHARLES CLEMMONS, con man and producing rip off artist.
He is now asking writers to submit material without any protection under the ASAP urgency guise.
Change careers Charles Clemmons, everybody knows you are an unethical mover and shaker and now you are using Craigslist to steal material from writers (after stiffing technicians on your lame music videos).
It's a real small town and you are gonna have to change your name if you want to make a living and get ahead in production. If you've been stiffed by Charles contact both Jago Production and Maverick Entertainment to inform them about about his production practices.

Devan Guadry
Hello,
You can add the producer Devan Guadry (A.K.A. Joseph Devan Guadry) to your list. This man is such a scam artist and has screwed over so many people in Hollywood that he even has a website devoted to people who have been hurt by him (www.devangaudry.com). I worked on a feature film entitled Vicious Circle, which principle photography took place in August/September (Devan was the "producer"). At the end of the shoot 3/4 of the crew had not been paid and those who were given checks had those checks bounce and were left with nothing as well. When we all went to contact him he became terribly unreachable: not answering his phone, not answering e-mail, and not even answering his door. As of now he has dropped off the face of the Earth and has mysteriously disappeared from his high-price condo in Marina Del Rey. It's come to the point where the executive producers even removed his credit from the IMDB page for the film. There's so much more to the Devan story, but all you have to do is go to the website I provided to find many others that were hurt by this man. His name should definitely be put on your black-list.
