Hello folks.
Certain forum members warned me to walk away from this project , I didn't and here we go , the problems aren't late.
So they told me that I will be shooting a dancing video . The whole dance would be 3 minute long , they could do it 4-5 times to get different angles and everything would be great!
I go there and from 3 minute dance , they tell me it's actually a 19 minute dance and they could do it twice and they have all sorts of weird breaks in between and I lose all sense of whats happening and what's going on .
They changed their plan 20 times before we started shooting , they were changing things at the moment of the production .
I didn't cared as much since I knew I would have creative control when I get into post production and I can just edit it in a way I want since I have enough coverage .
Now , the main dancer tells me there are a couple of things that she really wants to be in the video and I say okey no problem .
I wake up , look at my skype , freaking Harry Potter book . I got like 50 things she wants and they are all different some of them are freaking absurd . She wants me to change the whole background like I can magically key out every single background that it is on the planet .
She tells me all these different dancing moves that she really wants but I don't know what they are, I have absolute no clue what the fuck she is talking about and she can't point me specific dance moves because when we first started out I asked if they want a trailer , a promo . They said YES THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT WE WANT so I shot it in a way that it will be dynamic . it's not the whole video that it is there , I wasn't shooting a freaking documentary!
I said .. I will make you a 1 minute trailer / promo which is dynamic and really fast - paced . Again . They said that this is exactly what they want .
Now they want me to include 3 minute dance , and a 5 minute dance and then a 2 minute dance into the video which means this is no longer a 1 minute promo but some bullshit I would never do .
They keep on changing things and keep on wanting more and more .
What the hell am I suppose to do this is no longer a promo video it's just nonsense .
