Today a person told me that he needed to hire a photographer and asked me if I knew of any good people around town. I did give him some names of people but in my mind they charge a lot as this is professional quality work. I asked him what this was for and essentially he needed some headshots for himself and others to use as headshots when it comes to Film and TV projects. This is pretty common for someone to spend say $500 to walk away with three pictures in the end.<\/p>\n
But nowadays a lot of the screening process for this industry has gone digital where people are expecting to do self-tapes where having good quality video may be more important. So if he was going to spend over $1000 I actually suggested that he think about investing it in a camera while learning how to use it considering he will need to record video frequently. <\/p>\n
There are many times where you just need a service done right and so hiring a professional make sense. But if it\u2019s a situation where time isn\u2019t of the essence and you are going to need something repeatedly it can just make more sense to invest in yourself to learn how to do it in a professional way. It\u2019s almost like learning to repair something yourself if you can.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
