EPISODE 36: ARE YOU ALWAYS WORKING?

A hot topic for a lot of owner/operators out in the world is "Are you always working?". That question I believe varies depending on what you're normally hired for but as far as a working cinematographer goes I don't think you are and that's okay. The reason being is your day rate as a cinematographer is usually pretty good as you are responsible for the visuals and that alone pays fairly well. Now on the flip side if you're still in year 2 or year 3 trying to figure things out you might be working a lot more compared to your peers or those you look up to.

I'm reminded of a very good quote that applies to all of us, "Comparison is the thief of happiness". When you find yourself comparing where you are to where others are, just remember they've had their own journey of ups and downs. That being said I do offer some tips on navigating the space you're in when you aren't working and hopefully it helps!
