A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.
This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

I expect a second shooter to know their camera inside and out. Be able to shoot in constantly changing conditions with no hesitation. I expect them to understand composition, depth of field for storytelling, and etiquette as far as how to shoot without being in the way of anything. A second shooter should not be an amateur shooting in automatic mode trying to build a portfolio. A portfolio should already be built so I know who and what to expect when I am hiring.
Wait till you shoot a concert and the audio guy is 68 years old and thank god for bringing a mic set for the kit lol
Not sure what you mean here. I shoot a ton of concerts in large venues for big acts and I don’t care how the sound man does his job. Sound is his job, images are mine. End of story.
This was a dive bar. So obviously your mileage will vary 😂
I mean we shot a lot but they wanted a whole video made and I had the gear but they couldn’t figure it out so I just used a boom mic lol
