Get to know ME

[Latin Lens]

Quick question to all the chiefs....is it benefitial at all to send tapes to a market you want to go to early?

case in point....lets say i want to move to a bigger market next spring...could i write an email to the chiefs in that market say i am thinking of one day working up there and here's a tape. maybe you can critique, help me out with skills i may need in that particular market

that way i get to know them and they get to know me

i just don't know if chiefs have the time or patience for this sort of thing

any advice?

I know of two photographers that did just that. One actually sent the tape to Nashville and the Chief said get some larger (larger than where he was) market experience for about six months then I want to bring you on board. He has been in Nashville for about seven years now.

The other did more of what you are looking at doing. He sent a tape to Dallas to have it critiqued. Two weeks later he was starting his new job there. The Chief liked what he saw and wanted to work with him and teach him the ways. I believe he is still there after six years.

So I don't see anything wrong with it.

JoeSun- expect a tape sometime early next week.

i just want be familiar with chiefs so if and when it's time to move on it is easier.

i hope none of this stuff violates job posting laws or regulations.
