Exploitation!!
hear me out.....
my company event is around the corner and we were arrowed to be photographers during the 2 days event.
arrowed was sent out thru email and cc to some directors.
why i say it is exploitation?
1. strictly speaking, it is not in our job scope to take photographs
2. this will be 1st time, and i'm pretty sure there will be next time.... so this will not stop unless we resign from day job!
3. company wide event, cannot be no budget rite?
we were thinking of approaching the organiser and ask for more details such as some monetory to cover for our equipment depreciation.
we also don mind if they would buy us, say a Lexar CF in return for the arrowed service, but this will open door to future exploitation as well.
well, to those thinking "ahhh.. u might just do it for portfolio". answer is NO.
we have been taking corporate events for quite sometime and this event is nothing special compare to others.
it this point, we do not want to do it.
wanna hear from those who were in this situation before.
thanks.
