photographer's assistant, yes.Is it possible for a 15 year old, who has no exprience be a assitant photographer? Like for malay weddings and such?
But I think more likely you are looking to be a photographer's assistant (PA). someone assist a photographer in anything and everything but shooting.
Is it possible for a 15 year old, who has no exprience be a assitant photographer? Like for malay weddings and such?
O_O Slave driver!!!! remind me not to be your assistant!Not always the case Catchlights, my PA can double as an AP when needed, which is really only needed for some sports events or like at present when I'm too sick to work as she can do the more laborious shoots under supervision
lol, that remind me about the drive of Einstein.....Not always the case Catchlights, my PA can double as an AP when needed, which is really only needed for some sports events or like at present when I'm too sick to work as she can do the more laborious shoots under supervision
The story is that Albert Einstein's driver used to sit at the back of the hall during each of his lectures, and after a period of time, remarked to Einstein that he could probably give the lecture himself, having heard it several times.
So, at the next stop on the tour, Einstein and the driver switched places, with Einstein sitting at the back, in driver's uniform.
The driver gave the lecture, flawlessly. At the end, a member of the audience asked a detailed question about some of the subject matter, upon which the lecturer replied, 'well, the answer to that question is quite simple, I bet that my driver, sitting up at the back, there, could answer it...'
don't think i should be creating a new thread for my question similar to this so:
am an 18 year old awaiting NS enlistment in abt a month's time, and the time is too short to do like 6 month kind of attachments to government jobs that the girls can use this time before uni to do. so actually was thinking of taking this time to just try out different jobs/fields to get a feel of how is it like, or if i'm good enough, continue that job for the month or so
so the first thing that came to my mind is, yes assistant photographer! because i love photography, and its possible i want to engage in a career in the future that involves photography.
i've only owned my own camera for abt 7 months, but i've shot for about a year. feel that i've improved quite a bit in that 7 months i had my own camera at my disposal, although since i only shoot for leisure so far, the subjects are rather restricted la - landscapes, fun shots of ppl, street shots. rather than say studio portraits, or even environmental portraits.
1) with this in mind, is is possible to be an assistant photographer? PA should be no problem, but with such above experience alr is it possible to do smth closer to improving my actual shooting skills?
2) apart from assistant photographer, any other "attachments"/"internships" kind of jobs that a person like me can undertake?
3) with that said, know anywhere/anyone i can find such an attachment job to? or anyone willing to 'take me under their wing'? preferably a kind teacher because i promise to make up whatever lack in experience and skills i have with double the amount of eagerness to learn
thanks people!
