Joe Perri Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 This question goes out to the more seasoned professionals. So when you reach a point in you career where not a lot of work is coming your way... You have to reach out to your contacts, right? The reason why I ask is that I have been pretty busy the past 2 years with work just coming to me. I've never really had to reach out, now I do. So I ask if there is any proper etiquette to abide by when contacting former line producers, UPM's, coordinators and fellow camera guys. Should I just keep it simple and say "Hey hope all is well. I am available"? How have you guys handled slow times in the past? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 I get five emails or phone calls a week from past crew asking me if I have anything upcoming they can work on. It's totally fine, I don't mind at all. A quick email is all you need. R, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also might be nice to invite them out for a drink or a coffee if they get free time to catch up. Make it more friendly than work, if that's the type of relationship you have or think you could have.
