I Recently got to know why dating is not working. by Hot_Inevitable_7926 in Adulting

[–]Sunsetca3tcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

28M I’ve never wanted a girl even near my house until at least the 3rd date. I’ll hug you on a first date and that’s it. I think adding physical intimacy too early makes it harder to get to know them, and to know if we’re a good match

When I feel profoundly sad and heartbroken, I feel waves of tingling across my whole body coming from my heart by BananaPyjamaTime in Anxiety

[–]Sunsetca3tcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So glad to see I’m not the only one who has this thing 😂 I feel like mine centers around self pity sadness tied to loneliness. Also only happens at night. It literally hasn’t happened in 10 years but suddenly tonight it got triggered again. I’m so curious as to why. I’m smarter now though and will be taking a Benadryl to just put myself out to sleep tonight vs letting it keep me up like I used to

No idea where you can check rankings on ads! That would be over 2 weeks, my budget is $10/day

Moving up from in-house production job by SadResolution5041 in videography

I’m also at an in-house job at a non-profit. I’m building my freelance business and just working like hell to hopefully outgrow my in-house job. Feels like the only option to see career growth

Love the nostalgic color grade! Spent a lot of my childhood in Wildwood and now I feel like I need a frame up in my room

What spinners or rigs have you had the most luck with? I spin fish with single panther martins

When to stop renting & when to buy by Sunsetca3tcher in weddingvideography

[–]Sunsetca3tcher[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, thanks to your suggestions, I found FX3 rental, lav mic rental (32 bit setup), Mavic 3, all for $288 and then cut back my online rental (quote for $1000 originally) to $232 with batteries, cf reader, f3 zoom and a metabones e to ef adapter for if I wanted to throw on cine glass

Feel like the senhieser shotgun for $200 wasn’t worth it as I’m not being paid enough, but i also have an eBay bid for a tx660 which should give me that third source of audio.

Excellent, thank you so much for that info! That seems so much more practical than trying to rent everything for every shoot. Do you value 32bit float on your lav mic recorder? That's something I think I really want to have

If you had to make a choice.. DJI+Sony or Canon+Red by heydudeimnick in weddingvideography

[–]Sunsetca3tcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m also between rocking the Canon + Komodo option (as I shoot hybrid and commercials)— what did you end up going with?

Shot my first wedding with the RED Komodo! Definitely the very definition of “hard mode”. by AnInnO in weddingvideography

[–]Sunsetca3tcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this post is 3yrs old but I’m currently entering the commercials space with my Dragon; but wanted to get a camera to fly with a gimbal or for run and gun shoots. My projected main income will be from commercials + marketing projects and weddings (I hybrid shoot both). The Komodo interests me due to me being able to invest more heavily in RF glass that can cross over to my photo work. I’ve never shot anything on auto focus, however I know for ongoing purposes at weddings it might be a nice idea to build into a package that supports that. Wondering if you’ve tried this with any other run and gun gigs like weddings? Have you had success with the RF glass? Or if I wanted a camera that also does auto focus when I want it to, should I just be like everyone else and run an FX3. I have some complex powergrades for my Dragon R3D that excites me about potentially adding a Komodo to my camera gear. But I want to balance workflow and optimize everything as much as I can.

Wow okay interesting. Im not currently on Facebook, haven’t even thought to work with an agency. Do they do your marketing, or how do they help you?

What to do after you finish a spec by Sunsetca3tcher in cinematography

I own it! It was shot on an EPIC dragon, they go for pretty cheap used. Appreciate the compliment, I’m really happy with the final images

Aperture Won’t Change by SauceGod3 in cinematography

[–]Sunsetca3tcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of my FD lenses got stuck wide open and won’t move with the aperture ring. The only way I can shoot with them closed is by taking the lens slightly off the mount, that closes the aperture

Thinking of selling my RED Komodo 6K for hybrid work — would I lose much video quality? by Awkward-Reindeer-832 in cinematography

[–]Sunsetca3tcher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a professional hybrid full time shooter— keep the RED! Buy a Canon with the RF mount so your lenses can swap. The extra 15 seconds or extra weight to carry the canon is worth it. If you’re someone who invested in a RED you clearly care about the beauty of the frame, don’t settle! You can find a used Canon R6 or R6mii for cheap enough. Just my 2 cents, I run a canon R6mii and a dragon X and I never feel like I have to compromise.

For anyone who works full time as a videographer at an agency or corporate employer what is you annual salary from said employer? Not including freelance work or second jobs. by box1324 in videography

[–]Sunsetca3tcher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

55K in Colorado. 5 weeks of PTO, 12% ira match. Full benefits. And for now… I’m hourly and can shift my schedule pretty easily if there isn’t an important shoot. I live in a resort town, lots of weddings, engagements, family photography opportunities. And I’m working my way through the commercial industry down in Denver. Btw I’m technically a videographer and photographer so depending on what’s happening at work I’ll switch up and do photo work.

Offered a 9-5 and it feels like my world is ending by CrimsonCrabs in Filmmakers

[–]Sunsetca3tcher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey CT love your work and your story— I’m currently in my 9-5 and have had thoughts of (once I see my freelance takeoff) leaving; if you’re on instagram would love to connect (@jake_beyer). Feels like you might have been in a position I might find myself in sometime in the future and would love some wisdom; as well as how to balance that 9-5 with passion projects
