that's so funny to me... the guys I know that started when I did and before, we all do everything. we all started as photographers shooting film, they didn't even really have video on the internet.

we would all send our film to Denver digital, or to the client and they would send it in to Denver digital.

we went digital in 2001, so we all learned about Photoshop, storing and jerking a round with digital files etc. in about 2002-2003 we were starting to get asked about video, so we learned to shoot and edit video.

these new content guys don't really seem to know shit about anything. they hire people to do everything it seems. what a fucking hoot.

so anyway have fun... you have no idea the ride you're in for as a content shooter, and no fucking idea how much aggravation you're in for. the models are crazy as hell, the pimps are mean and dishonest. but really gets me, what really drains my energy is solving tech problems all day long. it's always something.
