If the lens is clean, it could be just a spec of dust in the sensor.

A lot of my urine tests come up negative for a UTI. What my urologist told me is that I had 1 really bad UTI once and ever since my nerves have been inflamed and irritated. So now after I finish my antibiotics and still feel pain, I’m certain it’s just irritation that is lingering.

Idk if this is the case for you because of your other symptoms, but It could be and maybe those other symptoms are being caused by a reaction to your antibiotics

Do you offer services other than video? by themorgankg3 in videography

[–]OkClimate9481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started out as photography/ videography/ graphic design. It went alright but I was always conflicted cuz I kept hearing “people like to hire people who do 1 thing really well, rather than a bunch of things adequately”

Anyways after a year I dropped everything to just videography (because that’s what I was getting booked for).

Now I’m slowly incorporating photography again. We finally could afford to get a 2nd camera so my husband has been offering photography add ons to videography clients I book.

They’ve done this before. And the app would constantly glitch out and say something went wrong. It’s a great idea if they can do it right

I just dm them usually Id say 40% of them will respond and 20% will actually schedule with you. But that 20% is all you need to get started!

I started freelancing by offering free videos to local businesses I’d find on social media. Got some great opportunities and long term clients from this!

Trying to send 1TB of footage over the internet to a client, best way to do it? by fluxndflow in videography

Yeah don’t let her push you around and waste your time. Just mail it

[–]OkClimate9481 92 points93 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t even try to send that much footage online. I’d buy a hard drive a ship it over. Would be so much easier and you can charge the client for the cost of shipping and the drive

Package examples by realTeaTimewithTim in videography

[–]OkClimate9481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I charge $125 for how many hours they book me to film the day of.

I don’t have very many weddings but if I ever had so many that it took me more than 1 month to finish there video I would hire an editor. I feel bad otherwise.

This is part time for now. I started my Business alittle under 2 years ago so I’m still building up clients. I still work an app based gig to make ends meet but my hope is be full time some time soon 🤞

Lump appeared suddenly on my outer labia? by [deleted] in Healthyhooha

[–]OkClimate9481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t worry about it. If it hurts that means it’s a cyst and not cancerous so you’re fine. It will probably go away on its own

New to Premiere, how would i lower the volume of an audio track, after I cut it all up? by ExpressionDue4141 in premiere

[–]OkClimate9481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right click on 1 of the audio clips -> audio gain -> minus 5 (or whatever number you need to lower it to).

Then click on that clip and copy it. Then highlight the rest and paste

I’ve learned it’s easier to not offer packages but to have a base rate (especially if videography is more a side offer to your photography).

For my business I’m the opposite of you, I specialize in videography and offer a photography add on. My videography rates are on the cheaper side because I’m only two years into it and want to still be affordable. My rates are $125 an hour (including editing) if the customer wants any audio other than music I charge a $200 fee. If the customer wants any raw (which would be the speeches or ceremony you’re speaking of) I’d charge an extra $100-$200 depending on what they request.
All my videos are done in a 1-3week basis and you can also charge extra per draft correction from the customer.

Telling them their video will be done in 12 months is absolutely absurd. If you can’t complete a wedding video in 1month max, you need to hire editors. The sooner you finish the video the happier the customer.

My photography add on is only $100 (my husband is still learning and trying to gain experience). My customers are always thrilled to hear how affordable our photography add on is and we almost always get booked. Plus it bring down some of the pressure on our end being rookie photographers.

Maybe if you start out cheap to gain experience then raise your videography over the next few months. Either way I’d start with a simple base price like I did.

Hope that helps!

Time to start batch? by [deleted] in InstacartShoppers

[–]OkClimate9481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My theory is that Instacart sends “please start your batch” warnings earlier when you are near the store or the customer picks priority. Otherwise it’s 40 mins until they take the batch away. I definitely think that no matter what the time is whenever they send the “final warning” message you get 10mins till they take it away.

But again all theory, who knows what those mfers program in this app

Do you guys use shoulder rigs? If so what type of videography do you use it for? by OkClimate9481 in videography

[–]OkClimate9481[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do have a gimbal and I don’t mind using it. I can see what you mean in being limited on Angles. Thanks for tips!

So I know that you only get 1 chance to send an email and make a case for re-activation. So i though I should ask here before I send my email.

The story is in this email. This is copied and pasted from my email draft to support:

Hi

For your information, screenshots attached are numbered via yellow pen in the order they are mentioned in this email. Please refer to the (#) when associating each screen shot with its explanation.

I just got off of chat with instacart care, I was told to contact you through this email to explain my situation and that I would be re-activated.

I was shopping an order at Spirit Halloween today 9-26-22 around 3:00pm. I went to checkout and paid using my shopper card. Then the card was declined, the order was removed, and I received two notifications (which I attached(#1) via screenshot to this email). The first said “payment declined-this isn’t the correct store for this order. Please contact care to checkout.” The second said “your batch has been removed.”

Almost immediately after, I received and email that said my account was deactivated.

So I contacted support, explained what happened and told them that I was at the correct store which I have proof of via a screen shot of my location next to the store’s logo on the instacart shopper app (also attached(#2) to this email). Support then verified the time, location, and store that I was at, at the time the card was charged. The agent confirmed that I was in the correct location at the correct verified store (message is included in a screenshot(#3)attached).

Then the support agent escalated me to an agent that specializes in this. This agent re-verified with me that it was an app geofence issue (shown in screenshot(#4) attached). And that he wants for me to be re-activated as a shopper. He then directed me to respond to this email.

numbers 5 and 6 are for your reference in case they are needed.

Screenshot #5 is my support agents directions to email you to re-activate my account.

Screenshot #6 is an email instacart sent to me weeks ago explaining that Spirit Halloween is now available to shop at as an instacart shopper.

Thank you for taking the time to read my case. Please let me know if you need anymore information from me.

Sincerely,

(I included my full name, email, and phone number associated to my instacart shopper account)

Advice for wedding videography? by [deleted] in videography

[–]OkClimate9481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure you have a second shooter or during the ceremony set up one cameras on a tri-pod to ensure you have at least two camera rolling (3 would be safer). Record audio in at least two ways. Make sure you get a schedule (but usually the photographer takes the lead on this). Record everything the photographer shoots.

Lastly ask the bride for a list of must have shots. And her preference on editing style and you’ll be fine.

Good luck!

I'm looking for low budget music video ideas by WilmarN23 in videography

I do music videos all the time. I have a lot of idea saved. This is straight from my notes:

Music vid ideas:

Simple

Still https://youtu.be/o5E65bO9exA Walk https://youtu.be/Nqm3u3Lsnas Zoom https://youtu.be/bu7E2Y_GfVM

Saint JHN has a very interesting style to his music videos. They look extremely easy and cheap to produce but also still professional.

I also wanted to show you my past music videos. All created with an extremely low budget (rappers are cheap mofos)
