So many dimwits-so little time.
Good choice for wheels, SK. |
Thanks.
The problem with dimwits (
as you call'em) - is they have no clue or concept about our business end and why a minivan is advantageous for a production company.
Aside from shuttling large props from the workshop to the studio - its ideal for hauling gear and people to on-location photoshoots (which we tend to do a lot of). Lighting, umbrella reflectors, cameras/tripods, wardrobe, makeup kits, smaller props, etc.
And bonus - the tinted windows give models privacy for on-location wardrobe changes.
But "dimwits" who only require a trunk to stick "5 servers" into don't think for a moment about things like that. To them, everyone else's needs and situation is perceived and judged by their own little world. So they spew shit without thought - just to be hateful.
Amusingly, here locally we have two photographers who are recognized by the Canadian government as accredited master photographers, Preston Haskell and Paul Mitchell. Oddly, both use company minivans (and both advertise their companies with van graphics).
We're not out there making a bling/status/fashion statement with a van. Its simply practical.
The haters can hate. That's fine - I think its amusingly ridiculous. But I have to wonder one thing ... what would a potential customer of theirs on GFY think about their business sense after reading this thread?
