-Documentary camera work, or small, independent projects, preferably global/traveling.
-News photography (never in-front-of-the-camera work though)
-I would also be happy producing this type of video for nonprofits.
-able to support myself doing this work
Here:
-Restarting video business after the other one didn’t do well. This time, weddings. Have equipment. It’s okay, just not what I want to do long term and better than what I have to do now (not video-related). But my heart is only partially in it.
-Trying to get a strategy to put together a workable demo for documentaries or news (want to start over with new work, not happy with my old stuff).
– Afraid of getting trapped doing the wrong work (here) and not getting to (there).
-News experience roughly 20 years ago, helpful but not that relevant to now – but enough to know that news is what I love. (Experience is studio only).
-Willing to start small but don’t have supplemental income, so anything undertaken would need to support me.
I’m nearing 50 so time is of the essence – it has made me more determined and impatient. No more waiting.
What’s the quickest path from here to there?
Thank you.
