I don't know what I laughed harder at, the image living with a noisy Bill Lumberg (top shelf allusion btw) or Nat-dog's letter.

This is why I feel that instead of getting jobs we hate we should just find all the truly awesome, pool our resources and hold up in some pole barn in Montata waiting for the apocolypse.

oryx:
have you tried assisting? it sucks ass, but every pro photog i know around here got their start assisting. it's a fantastic way to network, even when you sometimes know more than the guy you are holding lights for.

i've found that a lot of people in the photo industy are much more approachable than you would think. i've gone for coffee with the editor of the globe and mail, email back and forth with my favourite photojournalist in london, and hung out with the associated press photogs covering the protests in nyc last month. find someone in your area who is doing what you want to do, call them up and ask to pick their brain. i've never had anyone say no. it might not lead to a job, but so much of this industry is about who you know, and that's a great way to get your foot in the door.
bobbyo:
it depends on what you want to do. there's really not a clear path to follow. everybody does it differently.

assisting is the best way if you're looking to get into the commercial end of things. find photographers whose work you like and call them (there's lots of online directories or even look in the yellow pages under commercial photographers). for the most part people are willing to meet with you. if you call + meet with enough people you'll eventually start getting hired for jobs. you'll learn a lot about different equipment, but also about the business, about what to charge, etc. you'll get to see what you like and don't like about any given specialty. i learned a lot more about photography by assisting than i ever did in photo school.

you'll need some sort of portfolio to get assisting work. people like to see what you do. and to know that you're serious. a book or a box of prints would be fine. limit it to your best stuff, maybe 10-20 images.

if you're looking to start shooting it require making lots of phone calls to people you want to work for to get your portfolio in front of them. start with small local papers and magazines then go bigger. it takes some time before people know who you are and a wiliing to hire you. its a slow process, but things happen if you keep at it long enough. its not the easiest way to make a living, but its very empowering being in control of your own fate and doing something you love.

good luck. hope this helps.

Y'all (see my first five years of life spent living in the South coming out there?) were right down the block from me.

That is all.

Bastards.

Not really.
misstyrios:
Heh - I did know you were gonna be shootin' videos and stuff (and Sid does live, literally, down the block from me) but I was holed up doing this damn "law school" thing all weekend.

BASTARD LEGAL WORLD!

And you better get out here for more events. Sid is a little social coordinator. Obey her.

scopitone6248:
What the deuce was that flash animation you showed me? Was I supposed to be laughing the crap impersonation of the head-crushing guy from KITH? The sadness of the Internet? The super-hero "Nose Hair"?

Because I was offended by that mocking of The Internet. Without it, how would I ever get to do a little something I like to call "Penis in Vagina"??


FRECKLES!!

APPLE MAN!
I'm not that much of a SA-head, but this gets really good riiiiight around Apple Man. Animation in the style of Ren and Stimpy, too. There are just so many chock-full niblets of delight, like the special crime-fighting insignia above the tv sets in each headquarters.

Enjoy the bulge.

My favorite big-nosed friend once introduced me 'round as his sister for no discernable reason. He then spent several minutes apologizing when someone said, "Oh yeah, you guys have the same nose. I can see the resemblance." The funniest part? We really do have the same nose and I don't mind at all.

Well, I don't make friends with any old naked girl. But smart naked girls are the only weakness I have greater than bacon cheeseburgers.
