| Hi Isaac
Good to see another gig photorapher using Pentax.
Are you shooting RAW or JPEG??? RAW is definately the way to go, larger file sizes but really helps with adjusting white balance afterwards especially if in changing lights.
Late Of The Pier are cool, I was supposed to photoraph them at Nottingham just before Xmas at the Chameleon bar but got called to shoot a festival instead, which was a shame as The Chameleon only holds approx 50 at a push, think it was a gig for friends & family only.
As fro signing before a show, these are ussually called rights grabs & you need to read them carefully, there are some real stingers out there.
Some demand a copy of all images for commercial & pro use, some specify you must supply all images so they can choose which ones you can use, some even demand payment!!!! So read carefully. If I get any pushed in front of me now I just walkaway, the tour manager will usually chase you to let you in. This mainly applies to metal & emo bands for some reason, indie bands I haven't come across it, hear Glasvegas once got a bit pompous but have now stopped doing it.
Have added you as a contact on flickr, you have some good stuff in their. |
