Communication should always be Transparent

Make Sure to have contracts!!

Anyone who reaches out to you to collaborate whether its a unpaid or paid collaboration. The one seeking your services should have no problem writing down what they want to shoot with you from A- Z. Someone who has a problem with writing anything down is a huge red flag. Real producers, photogs, and ect want to have things in writing so they know that the talent knows what’s expected of them so there is no surprises. Keep an eye out for creatives who want to always “ chat over the phone” and not text/ send a call sheet that’s a way they can keep themselves from being connected to asking talent to do levels they don't publicly talk about. Don’t change levels day of or last minute. Rarely will they not have an idea of what they want but they wait till the last minute to pressure the model/ talent on set where no one is present. You ask for references and the claim they are private or cant provide references due to a NDA avoid those creatives they’re hiding something no matter the amount of money they offer dont take it/ fall for their silver tongues.
