Boston Movie Extra

Look I am a parent and I see certain things in my son that says that kid's has talent. Not in this industry but possibly in construction and oddly enough cooking. Even though I might see it and I can make him recognize it, it doesn't mean I am going to force it on him if he doesn't want to do it. When it comes to this industry...man it's annoying issue. I was on a set not too long ago where it was just a typical long day. There were kids ranging from 10 to 15yrs old, and they really didn't get to work until the 9th hour per say. Now in the morning it was all exciting that they were on a movie set, and all that stuff. But eventually they got bored and wanted to leave, the parents were not having any of that. Sad. The parent indicated they they were to stay and wait no matter how long it takes because you are "talented". This kid was so upset that it caused a huge scene.

The reason why I say that is you should really compare and contrast each of your favorite photographers and see their feedback, their quality and their price. Most importantly make sure you own the photo(s) when it's over. Do not sign anything that gives the photographer the right to own your photos..or it will bite you right in the butt, I swear.

Well to some of you yes but for many others they always get bit by this especially newcomers, so keep your eyes out. Like I always say if it doesn't smell good...don...
