Hey People, I need some honest feedback on my work because I'm not getting any......work, that is. What would you like to see more of. What should I not show. Please do this for me and I will repay the favor. Thanks, Filipe Jun 30 05 07:54 pm Link Grown men should not cry in public. Jun 30 05 08:02 pm Link Okay, I took a look you cry baby. You have good stuff but not to the level of getting big jobs, think small, fine tone, and work your way up the latter. No one every promised you a rose garden. This shit is hard.. no really I just found some old stuff behind the couch that is hard as a rock. White too, no smell though,, stupid lazy human. Jun 30 05 08:06 pm Link The majority of people here don't have any work for you anyways... Jun 30 05 08:07 pm Link Don't listen to Jack, he's irritated cause he's getting neutered tomorrow. Have you actually done anything to promote your work other than just putting it on sites like this? Are you sitting around waiting for somone to find you and knock on your door? Jun 30 05 08:16 pm Link yes, what Gary said. Except I already had my balls cut off. Jun 30 05 08:31 pm Link Wow, Jack is an ASS. Jun 30 05 08:43 pm Link what kind of work are you trying to get? you need to narrow down your style, which i'm not sure you have quite developed yet- it's hard to hire someone when you have no idea what they are going to produce. work on putting together a consistant book and then try and look for jobs. not being mean, just how it is. Jun 30 05 08:54 pm Link Posted by Jack D Trute: *Gary makes note to self. Jack has no balls* Jun 30 05 09:15 pm Link Posted by tanyak: Exactly I was wondering that while I was looking through his work as well. I couldn't pin point a particular style and I also use to hear that all the time from art directors. They would tell me I'm scared to hire you because I don't know what I'll get. Jun 30 05 09:33 pm Link OK,, I am not meaning to soudn like an ass, but hear it goeas anyway. Screw what other people think of your work, why does it matter? Look around you and look at what people are doing. Lighting, photoshop, bladda, bladda... I made a 1000 comments and I have one comment and do not really care, screw'em all. Do it for you.. Jun 30 05 09:36 pm Link Your work is ok.. lose the gun!! Jun 30 05 09:39 pm Link Posted by joe duerr: lol Jun 30 05 09:49 pm Link I can see now that this critique forum is a load of crap. Fred, your work is inconsistent. It all says "model shots" under them but that's all they have in common. Are you a black and white photographer or a child photographer or a portrait photographer or a fashion photographer? Gary, No shit! really? Marketing? Jack, Shut the f*ck up. I think LaMarco Photo and Xtreme Artists have it right. To the rest of you, Take a real good look at your work. If your satisfied, Your done. Thanks anyway. Jun 30 05 09:50 pm Link Wooohooo! Fuck em all..LMAO Now you are a pro..LOL You work is fine and everyone should know, if you are going to try out for a glam shot, you do not take your fashion book. So keep it, I think you work is good. I would say great, but I save that for me.. HAHA! JOKES PEOPLE! Jun 30 05 09:53 pm Link Posted by Filipe Marques: Jack is a dog. Donkeys are asses. Jun 30 05 09:55 pm Link I noticed inconsistency in style - for instance the girl in the red sweater looks like someone else shot it than shot the other images. Also, the one headshot is pretty blury... John Jun 30 05 10:03 pm Link Posted by Filipe Marques: Yes Shit, Marketing wise ass. What have you done? That was my question. You asked, if you can't take the criticism without acting llike a 2 year old baby then you should not have asked. Jun 30 05 10:22 pm Link *walks in a takes a look around* Please don't point the gun at moi! No drama....that is for the models... But otherwise I think everyone has their own style and flare it is just about finding what yours is...all of this from a lamen of course. :-) Jun 30 05 10:27 pm Link I would have to agree with those that have commented on the wide variety of photography styles you are showing here at MM. Is there a particular market you wish to work in? I would alter the images you are showing to concentrate on whatever that market is, and elimate the rest of the photos. Of course, if you aren't looking to specialize in some type of model photography, MM isn't the right place for you. Jun 30 05 10:29 pm Link Posted by Sky Above: Don't even bother with this clown, Sky. He's nothing but a whining 2 year old. Jun 30 05 10:30 pm Link Hey Gary Do you see any intelligent, helpful comments on my WORK here? I asked for a critique on my photos (being the cause) NOT my business practices. You missed the point. "No, YOU take a real hard look at my work ace." And yeah, I looked at your work. I'm waiting to be impressed. Jun 30 05 10:40 pm Link Thanks for your comment John. Jun 30 05 10:42 pm Link Posted by Filipe Marques: Hm... I don't recall asking for "your" comments especially after reviewing "your" work but they all say models because they all are models (duh) represented by agencies around the US and a few internationals. My inconsistency as you have stated gets me "consistent" work (lol) and nationally recongized by BMG, FORD, NeXT, ELITE, IMAGES, ARLENE WILSONS, BOSS and on and on not to mention Ad agencies and art directors as well. Jun 30 05 10:44 pm Link Good for you Fred. Jun 30 05 10:50 pm Link Posted by Glamour Studio /Gary: Posted by Sky Above: Don't even bother with this clown, Sky. He's nothing but a whining 2 year old. Thanks Gary, Jun 30 05 10:57 pm Link Posted by Filipe Marques: You are obviously a wannabe who can't tell good from bad. Most beginners have that trait, like yourself. It's a joke if you even think you come anywhere near my skill level. Your work basically sucks and there's nothing there. You couldn't get that shit published on a paper bag.

Skill Level? in what, Photoshop? Keep dropin out those white backgrounds and those tacky looking gradients. How about those layers? Let's see what they really look like. Your work is a farce so get your fake ass off my thread.

You are a joke that just keeps getting funnier. Take that shit you call photography and burn it. Jun 30 05 11:21 pm Link Can't we just all get along????? Look guys.... get something in common.... look at my posts.... it'll give you both a cheerful laugh.... and who knows.. we can all be friends. Everyone has their own style ... and what i've noticed... is that a person who has one particular style sometimes isn't interested or appeased by the particular style of others. Jun 30 05 11:29 pm Link Posted by photog2b: I'll stop right now but I didn't start this nonsense. He did. But I will finish it if that's what he wants. Jun 30 05 11:31 pm Link Posted by Glamour Studio /Gary: I can't stop laughing - that was too funny. i laughed out loud when I read it!!!!! Jun 30 05 11:31 pm Link OK Photoshop, You win I suck. You wore me out. Gary from "Glamour Studio" is great. Puts me to shame. Yep. Jun 30 05 11:33 pm Link Neither of you suck actually. It's all relative. Jun 30 05 11:36 pm Link Posted by Filipe Marques: Listen Filipe, I really have nothing against you or your work. Jun 30 05 11:40 pm Link This is some funny Sh*t! lol Jun 30 05 11:41 pm Link Truce. We made Art laugh though.... it's worth something. Jun 30 05 11:44 pm Link Posted by Filipe Marques: Well it does look pretty stupid when people go at it on here, like we did. Think of it as a form ("forum") of entertainment. lol Jun 30 05 11:47 pm Link True. "Reality" Forum There's a market out there, I'm sure. Jun 30 05 11:51 pm Link And to think I opened myself for critisism and not a damn word was said. Geez.... can't win for losing. Glad its a long weekend coming up. You guys have a great one.
