Creative Collision: Direct to Video … Or Not

Question: How important is it to shoot video?

With more and more clients looking for video products, more and more photographers are dabbling with motion work … and some are doing more than just dabbling. But what are creatives really looking for – great photographers who might make a nice transition to video, or up-and-coming videographers who already know motion? In this special Creative Collision video, insiders answer:

• What do clients prize more – established connections with known photographers or a videographer’s specialized expertise?
• How can established still-image artists convince clients they can master video productions?
• What’s best for individual artists – sticking with what they know or expanding their professional horizons?
