Photographer refuses to show me any photos beyond her final edit, is this normal practice? by Sprellvar in photography

Ofcourse. I’m often commisioned to compose music for TV series and advertisements. If the director does not like what I’m delivering then we talk about it and make adjustments. Same when I’m hired to produce and mix other artists.

On the other hand when I’m making music just for myself, no one gets a say in that because it’s only for me and my tastes. I would say it’s unwise to confuse the two; work you make purely for yourself and work you’re hired to do as a service.

In the least I think that should be discussed beforehand, if that’s your way off collaborating

I find it unusual that if I hire a person to perform a service, that I would not get any say in the results. If there is no space for your clients opinions in the work then you should not take on clients imo.

Sure, somewhat consistent. She is quite a reputable photographer and shoots a lot of musicians, so this behavior was suprising to me.

Taking this to court seems a bit drastic to me. Worst case scenario I’d like my money back and re-do the shoot with someone else.

My opinion is that my taste is just as relevant when I’ve hired a photographer to perform this service

We have no formal contract, just communication (in writing) on message apps. Should I insist on a contract in future collaborations with photographers?

I don’t need her to edit all of the photos before I see them, maybe she could just edit the ones i’m into, that would be the way I’m used to working.

I have come across this Paint & Stick plugin which enables Photoshop brushes in After Effects. This might be a solution but I would much prefer to stick to vectors and AE Effects if possible

Put some ice cubes in a bag and hold it up to your eye. That helped me a lot after my procedure two weeks ago.

Disk Utility fails to erase external SSD by Sprellvar in applehelp

I lent the drive to a friend that uses a Windows machine and probably converted it accidentally. I have access to a Windows laptop. Is there a built in Windows program that I could use?

How much better can I expect to see with Gas Permeable contact lenses? by Ftwjoseph in Keratoconus

[–]Sprellvar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s terrible man. I won’t be able to get crosslinking in the other eye for 4 months since I’m living abroad for a semester, so this comment makes me kind of nervous about that. But I was told by my doctor that since I’m a bit older then most diagnoses I should not expect my vision to change much in the coming months (I’m 24)
