Just A Thought On Photoshoots by Tippy Descatamento (http://tippyfield.multiply.com)
It's not just I who experienced this but this has been going on for a long time. Here's a protocol in getting make-up artists for a gig.1. Save our numbers. Please take our numbers when we give it to you. We give it to you so that in cases where we are not available online or vice versa, you can still reach us. Wag mo ding gawing textmate ang make-up artist. Wag mong bolahin.2. Confirm two days or a day ahead prior to the shoot. Don't leave us hanging and letting us guess if it's pushing through or not. A short text message saying "Hey, tommorow's the shoot. See you!" won't hurt right? Wag matakot magtext. Piso lang naman, diba? May unlitext pa at alltext naman. Issue?3. Give us the Peg prior to the shoot. Don't surprise us what the look is that same day. Haggard ka ate!4. Pro-bono Naku eto na. If it's probono, please carefully list our names, and get it right for credits purposes. Probono na nga mali pa ang contact details namin. Double Haggard!5. TFP and Xdeals Mas haggard! Xdeal is used when you are giving a material thing, not money, to someone for his/her services. Whereas, TFP or Trade for print, exhange of services will be in the form of the finish product of the shoot like pictures for that matter.6. Offer food or drinks Since this is your shoot, offer kahit na tubig man lang kung probono. Kahit plastikin mo lang, of course may pera naman kami noh. Chikahin mo na lang na kunwari "you like water?". The mere concern is priceless.. Dahil if you offer, makakaulit ka pa ng probono sa amin. Guaranteed yan mare!
