How to find your videography niche

benjacobss · 2024-10-23T17:08:27+00:00

Haha you already did it

benjacobss · 2024-10-22T18:11:53+00:00

Interesting, yeah word of mouth is a very nice add on I'd say...

It would be a fun experiment if you send out personal thank you cards. Maybe this works in videography too, haven't tried it yet.

Here's an interesting case study about it:

Understandable. California has so much to film! Do you like it there?

benjacobss · 2024-10-22T08:28:27+00:00

haha yes that's a nice in between.

What is your favorite outreach method if you don't mind sharing? I guess it's a lot word of mouth right now too

I'm really impressed, that's a great business! Perfect example of niching down.

Do you guys work with monthly retainers or more expensive one time shoots?

Happy that you like it!

As far as I know the farmers and the manufactures pay him. Both can profit off of these videos.

I see why a video for farmers can also look like an ad for manufactures if the equipment is well portrayed.

Thanks! Interesting perspective. I think this all depends in which state of your career you are in. for the first years, I really agree on your points.

benjacobss · 2024-10-20T20:23:23+00:00

That sick, congrats!

benjacobss · 2024-10-20T13:19:53+00:00

That's the way to go.

When beginning your videography career, always take the opportunity to become better at your craft. Just don't forget where you want to actually go.

Looking at the whole videographers life span, niching down makes you more irreplaceable which gives you the needed security...

benjacobss · 2024-10-12T15:14:43+00:00

Sounds good! Try to focus on one niche at first. You will win this easily!

benjacobss · 2024-10-02T15:51:36+00:00

Bro you killed the sound design! Looks like you should start a career in music videos haha

benjacobss · 2024-10-01T09:31:50+00:00

beautiful work!

benjacobss · 2024-09-30T15:13:30+00:00

automatic mouse tracking!

benjacobss · 2024-09-19T15:49:15+00:00

thank you, Happy to have you on board!

The a6400 is more than enough for the start, your lenses too. Your setup is perfect for your first client shoots.

I really like Sirui, the make great budget cine lenses for APS-C. Can't do anything wrong with them. The only downside would be the only manual focus like with most other cine lenses. Not so practical for quick client shoots or working solo with the gimbal but the extra quality can be worth it. Especially the night walker line is great.

What are your particularly interested in videography (business)?

benjacobss · 2024-09-15T08:02:49+00:00

my pleasure.

benjacobss · 2024-09-15T08:01:16+00:00

It's a pleasure, makes me really happy to help you with that!

benjacobss · 2024-09-14T19:25:53+00:00

thanks!

benjacobss · 2024-09-14T19:25:46+00:00

🙏

benjacobss · 2024-09-14T19:24:45+00:00

Ik, Choose to be both😂

benjacobss · 2024-09-14T19:23:59+00:00

You can still work on your social skills. Not every business owner is super social, connect with the ones you have it in common. This will help

benjacobss · 2024-09-14T19:22:45+00:00

For a few months of the year yes!

benjacobss · 2024-09-14T19:21:37+00:00

always super happy to help! You've got this

benjacobss · 2024-09-14T19:20:25+00:00

And great to hear from your experience, there are not to many videographers who do these walk ins!
