Not all cinematography jobs are created equal. 

Some jobs require creative input and some jobs do not.  At least not in the same quantity.  Knowing the difference between the types of jobs and what is being asked or required from you can have a big impact on the quality of the work.

I think the goal for most working in the industry is to be sought after for their creative qualities but what we want and what reality actually looks like are often quite different.

In this episode I try and lay out how I differentiate between the demands of certain jobs and how I navigate between the two.

I hope it helps.

Enjoy!

The breakdowns that used to happen on the podcast are now happening over on Patreon in video format.

If you want all the technical problem solving and the step by step analysis of the jobs that I am working on throughout the year then Patreon is the only place to get that.

This week we are looking at a large interior scene of a woman listening to some music.  There were schedule challenges, location challenges, and resource challenges.  The trifecta of fun for any cinematographer.
