What's going on people,
It's 7:37 A.M., i'm an early bird, but I think I set my alarm for to early! I want to talk a little bit today about services in the music business that you can/must pay for, or at least its recommended, not so much what they are but how you should treat them. My example today...
~MUSIC VIDEOS: Yesterday I had a video shoot for my track "Put in work (Mush Mouth!)." This shoot went totally wrong. I definitely put more faith in the camera man than I should have. Its no biggie though, he's a cool dude, even said he'd come back get it done the right way, so I respect him. Now in me paying for this service, I expect quality, and me having a vision, I know exactly what I want, but I know exactly what happened lol....
So you ever been doing something that someone else knows how to do better than you, and they tell you "hey, you should focus on this more," but then you end up being stuck on that one factor and forget all the others.
....Well thats what happened here. Only thing I emphasized was I wanted some un-focus to focus shots. Not sure what they're actually called, but I know the effect, and I know it makes music videos look dope! I'm more familiar with mixing down vocals than mixing down a video, but i'm damn good!
First of all, I shouldn't have been playing X-box before he left, I should have been checking the videos. By the time I did check the videos, I ended up only going thru half realizing I cant do a video with this, and called him back, time was of the essence!!!
All in all, when your purchasing a service in the music business, in any business, check your product no matter how much faith you have in them. It may not be what you want!
