Photographer Expresses Dismay to ‘Barat’ Customer Who Offer P1,000 Service for Photo & Video Services
A frustrated photographer has expressed his disappointment to a ‘barat’ customer: “1k for photo & video plus same-day edit”
A Facebook user named Jeth Wayne Esplana recently shared his grievances about a conversation he had with someone who was requesting to hire additional photographers and videographers for an upcoming event.
In a post by Esplana, a screenshot of the conversation revealed that the talent fee being offered for the additional photographers and videographers was a mere P1,000, which Jeth found to be inadequate.
Not only did Jeth object to the low talent fee but also to the idea that the person requesting the additional hires had little regard for fellow photographers and videographers.
Jeth expressed frustration over the fact that the gears and equipment used by photographers and videographers are expensive, and the talent fee being offered did not seem to reflect the value of their work and expertise.
Jeth also pointed out that the way the person was requesting the additional hires seemed to show a lack of respect for fellow documenting personnel.
This story sheds light on the challenges faced by photographers and videographers in the creative industry, where talent fees and compensation may not always reflect the value and expertise of their work.
It also highlights the importance of mutual respect and fair compensation in professional relationships and the need for clear communication and understanding of the value of creative services.
Here is the full post:
“Ilang taon mong pinaghirapang aralin yung craft mo tapos magiinvest ka sa mahal na gears tapos ganito lang mababasa mo, 1k tf for photo video and sde package? Bakit parang ambaba po ng tingin ng iba sa mga photographer and videographer? Dahil po ba pindot pindot lang? Para po sa kaalaman ng iba hindi po madaling pagaralan lahat ng yan. Talent, oras, kuryente, gears and utak po ang binabayaran sa photography, hindi yung pagpindot pindot lang.. Sobrang sakit makabasa ng ganito”
