Today, we're thrilled to have Slater Moore (@slatermoorephotography), a marine and land wildlife photographer and videographer, who recently reached over 1 million subscribers on YouTube, as our special guest. In this episode, we explore the potential impact of AI on commercial photographers and videographers, emphasizing the enduring value of human-created content with regards to artistic expression. Slater shares insights on securing retainer contracts with local businesses and discusses. We discuss how big lenses and gear are becoming engaging props and acting as "the hook" in short form video content. Additionally, we revisit the debate surrounding vertical versus horizontal content, contemplating their respective merits within modern content consumption trends and engagement dynamics.
