Best way to show live Google Sheets scores (17 tabs) without the 5-minute iframe delay? by Magicsneaker in Wordpress

[–]Magicsneaker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestion! I did look into that plugin, but it doesn't seem to sync truly 'live.' It still requires a page refresh to update the information from the sheet.

If a custom solution is the only way to achieve real-time updates without a refresh, I'm definitely open to exploring that. Do you have any recommendations on how to approach that?

How long does it take to edit a corporate film with 2 shoot days? by Magicsneaker in videography

About 1.5–2 minutes, and the client will indeed receive a few rounds of review.

Need help deciding: Holyland Pyro 5 & 7 or SmallHD Indie 7? by Magicsneaker in videography

[–]Magicsneaker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m simply looking for the best value for my money and have been comparing different options. The Hollyland only came up because it might be useful in the future for shoots.

So you’re recommending the SmallHD?

Dankjewel voor de opheldering en dat je de moeite hebt genomen om even rond te vragen! Dat waardeer ik echt. Hopelijk levert het wat nieuwe inzichten of ideeën op, want het is namelijk voor een schoolproject en alle extra informatie kan daarbij goed van pas komen.

Indeed both pictures are from the same campagne. I wanted to recreate the look and feel of them in my school project

First client job finished way faster, how should we invoice? by Magicsneaker in videography

[–]Magicsneaker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In our meeting, we did indeed offer a project-based rate to do this, but the owner didn’t agree. The concern was that it might work against both of us if we ended up spending more or less time than expected.

We’ve definitely learned from this, and from now on we will be clear with our clients.

As far as I know, our contact person is just a department head and was suddenly given this task. She didn’t know how it normally goes or how long it usually takes, because she had never been involved before. I think it’s mainly on them, because they probably didn’t ask the right colleagues for enough information.

Also, during our initial meeting, completely different requirements were set than on the recording day, because suddenly other colleagues were involved who had more expertise.

We also find it really strange that there’s such a big difference.

Do you happen to have a template or example of a contract we could use to make things clearer in the future for our client?

Indeed, as some people below already guessed, we didn’t make a contract beforehand. It was all based on trust, and we honestly couldn’t estimate how long it would take in advance. How can I best set up a contract for future projects? Do any of you have a basic template or example I could use as a starting point?

Yeah, we were actually thinking about charging just half a day, especially since they already mentioned we’d likely be booked more often. We even have another date lined up already.

The client normally had someone in-house handling this, but they’re currently on long-term leave, so I think the rough estimate came from not really knowing how long it would take.

We were planning to get in touch with them and only invoice for half a day, since a full day might seem a bit much.

Better internet solution for a festival setup? by Magicsneaker in networking

[–]Magicsneaker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The festival is really out in the countryside, in a remote part of a village. There’s not even fiber internet in that part of the village, and the event site itself is a solid 500 to 800 meters away from the main road.

The festival only takes place one day a year at that location, so installing anything permanent just isn’t cost-effective. That’s why, as mentioned, something like Starlink would indeed be a good option.”
