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.

Nice post, Brian... you and I go back as far as 2000/2001, and things have really changed over the years. The price of digital equipment has fallen as the cameras, etc., have gotten better. Now any halfwit with $1500 can call himself a photographer; and any moron with $2500 is a director. Sic transit gloria mundi . . . .
