hello!
i have just joined up on this very informative website and happy that i can ask a few questions
i have be a very succesful fashion photographer for the last 12 years and have developed a great eye for lighting and composition and now would like to become a DP
i have had the opportunity to shadow some really good Dps on tv commercials and have a good undestanding of how things work on sets etc
www.factoryfoto.com photographer is robert collins [see style of work]
i know i need to build a reel to show my vision but, my question is- what do i shoot?
what do DP reps look for and where do i go from here?
and becoming a working DP in 4 to 5 years ?
do is shoot digital or film etc- lots of questions going around in my head
if any advice can be given on the next steps it would be greatly appreciated
thanks
robert
