Pay $200 for 200 sets of content what do you think you are buying?

No / Yes: That's my point. (that so many have overlooked)....
Point #1: I (we) have to deal with the SHIT I (we) am (are) sent. Example: " Make me (us) a bad ass tour... here's some vid-caps @ 320x240... I expect it to kick ass!"
Point #2: Someone is being contracted to do this shit before it hits my (our) desk. Some asshole out there is saying "Yeah, I'll do it for $200 bucks... TOTAL! That includes model fees!"....
Point #3: Stop it!
You wanna bag on the designers here for producing fucked up shitty tours.... take a good hard look at the content shooters supplying the shit. How fucking hard is it to take a bunch of pics? Especially today with high-end digital these days? There's no skill left involved that can't be gleaned from a book @ Borders.
Fault of the clients? Yes. I agree. They are the ones ultimately paying for the shit they buy. But as a photog, if you shoot better grade shit, you acquire better clients. It's a given. Unless of course your business model is to appeal to the lowest bidder.
Point #4: Why the fuck can't I buy a bunch of high-end camera gear and shoot pics of naked chicks just as easily?
The days of.... "Well,... I'm a "Mysterious Photographer" that knows shit you'll never know"..... are fucking over. We're not dealing with 35mm film and dark rooms any more here. Please...
this was the initial question...
SHOW ME WHY I NEED YOU AS A CONTENT PRODUCER!
