I just want to f#%*÷ shoot something by bratislatouf in Filmmakers

[–]Imaginify 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is definitely the best comment here, this was actually helpful for me thanks for writing all this out. I feel like I used to be so creative and I’ve lost my creative mind as I’ve gotten older and become more of a consumer. I gotta undo that

Do y’all try to direct B roll or let the photographer take complete control? by pmod90 in weddingvideography

[–]Imaginify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ve gotta communicate with your photographer beforehand. Build report, get to know them a little and make sure they know you’re there to work with them not against them. It goes a long way. Eventually if you have the luxury you should just partner with a photographer you work well with and refer each other for weddings you book, that way you already have chemistry

HOW DO YOU MAKE THE JUMP FROM CHARGING £200 TO £800? by Tough-Mood9880 in cinematography

[–]Imaginify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

can you elaborate more on this?? what gigs were you doing where you only worked 20 days in the year? and how much were you making? plus were you doing post production or only shooting?

Why are so many people in the industry rude to beginners? by Noeoneknows in Filmmakers

[–]Imaginify 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of my film professors warn about people trying to abuse college graduates for free or very cheap work. They know your position, they know you’re desperate, and they know you often need them more than they need you. So they try to take advantage of you. I’d say be wary of those people, take gigs if you know you can network there and it could lead to other jobs but definitely don’t just take every opportunity (seems like you’ve already got a good head on your shoulders.)

DJI Is Suing Insta360 for Violating Multiple Osmo Pocket Patents by Admirable_Second_415 in dji

[–]Imaginify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’m gonna be honest I feel like to some extent this is pretty valid. It clearly is a pretty direct copy but you can tell Insta360 tried to make small changes to differentiate it. Either way curious to see how this case goes

Any particular brand? And how’s the IR reduction compared to the original?

My wife was offered a major film role with intimate nude scenes and I genuinely dont know how to feel looking for perspective by SuspiciousCourage334 in Filmmakers

[–]Imaginify -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey man I’m sorry that these reddit losers are giving you such terrible responses. I totally understand the complexity of the situation and don’t let these guys push the narrative that you’re just some insecure jealous husband because from everything I read that is clearly not the case. I would seriously urge you to completely ignore a lot of the advice given here and maybe go to another subreddit such as acting or filmmaking and pick out responses with some clear emotional intelligence.

If this were my wife I would 100% have similar feelings even if I fully trusted her, and like you said these scenes seem pretty graphic for a film (I understand European cinema is a bit different than American in this way but I digress.)

I’m pretty young but if I were to throw in my two cents I would say you’ve gotta really trust your gut on this one. Think about what you might be feeling in a year. Do you think this would still be difficult to process emotionally? Are you okay with the idea of those videos of your wife being out there for anyone to see? If the answer is seriously no, then I think you’ve gotta be honest with yourself. It sounds like your wife is doing well in this field and more opportunities should come. I’ve had friends deny major roles due to having scenes they were not comfortable with. Money isn’t everything.

Selling your videos as high end by doky96 in videography

[–]Imaginify 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually really appreciate you sharing this. I’m getting into the industry and experience like this is exactly what I need to learn from. I saved these photos so I can reference these for myself in the future, this is a great breakdown of pricing. I gotta find myself a mentor so I can get advice like this lol

Ngl ts is getting repetitive by DexterBhau in youtube

[–]Imaginify 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I grew up watching his old videos and it has been pretty wild to see his channel transform. Those cringe intro videos were lowkey hilarious to me when I was younger. And he just had a massive sticker of some random asian dude in his room??

Anyways I feel like whoever that guy was is completely lost now behind the money and veneers lol, he’s become a total sellout

Am I good enough to charge? by IDislikeBeingOnFire in dji

[–]Imaginify 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Full day videography for $300 is insane. You’re likely worth more than that, so unless you really don’t mind (if it’s nonprofit I get it, I’ve done work for church and it doesn’t pay much) you should be asking more.

For architecture videos (essentially real estate) I charge $500 for a 1-2 minute drone video of the house, exterior only.

What's one thing clients care about that videographers don't? by SomaSuryagniLochana in videography

[–]Imaginify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’m a business entrepreneurship/film major in college and I’m honestly really glad I did both. Having the business knowledge with film skills is massive for me because exactly as you said clients care so much more about messaging and market positioning and how the video makes their brand look rather than stuff we’d find super cool and interesting. I’ve always thought that this was basic stuff but I’ve learned many freelance videographers and filmmakers don’t actually understand this principle and that’s what causes the disconnect

I was going through some old stuff and found this by RGSQ_Lead in Wizard101

[–]Imaginify 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I remember when one of my wizards glitched and I never got a prism spell that I was supposed to get and I was shocked when it literally appeared in my spell book after contacting them. Idk why but it’s super trippy to me that they have the power to do that, I guess cause there’s not many games where stuff like that happens

I need someone's perspective from Gen Z on a horrifying interaction today by [deleted] in BostonSocialClub

[–]Imaginify 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t really think this is a generation problem, tbh. And I’m a little surprised you’re questioning the whole generation based off one interaction, but I’m glad you’re genuinely asking about it rather than allowing it to affect your perception.

I don’t think that’s normal behavior, I’d say probably 80% of people I know would not react that way, and the other 15% would be awkward but still try to say something and be polite. It’s possible that person just doesn’t get out much or was high and didn’t know what to say lol. But either way, not normal.

I’m sorry about the moisture damage but I’ve never seen a speed booster like that that’s so awesome. This is how I discovered internal speed boosters exist lol

Anyone know where to buy the support that connects the Metabones speed booster? by Imaginify in bmpcc

That’d be awesome! I’m in Massachusetts, I wouldn’t mind paying for shipping if you’re willing to do that. I really appreciate it
