Creative Collision: How to Master Shoot Production

Question: How do you run a successful production?

Clients believe a producer can make or break a photography shoot, not to mention their relationship with you! And they're right. In this video, creatives discuss what makes a producer great and what gets a producer - and their unfortunate artist – mentally blackballed. Before you head into your next shoot, learn what matters in today's shoot productions and how to leverage this afterthought into a professional strength:

• What does one creative call the "most stressful" production mistake you can make?
• What personal qualities do clients consider crucial in a production team?
• Could your producer be sabotaging your success?
