So much of what I do is for money that it’s a mental leap to say to myself, ‘do this for you.’ But you’re correct-this is how we push our craft and get better. Thanks for the encouragement, good sir.

@MaurideHaro 6 месяцев назад

Agree with you! As long as you do something you are passionate about you are good to go!

@evgeniyyavtushenko7653 2 года назад

Excellent points. I worked with people who spend tons of money on gear and then trying to save on hiring the right people for the job. The result of that is pretty mediocre in most cases.

Great video as always Matteo! Where do you find inspo for spec ads / personal projects? I've been going through a creative drought where I really want to make something but I just haven't had any ideas or come across anything inspiring for months. Really struggling to get out of this rut, so I'm curious to what you do.

@matteobertoli 2 года назад

It’s very hard, but I think you need a friend that shares your same passion and you can get together over dinner and get creative. It’s very hard when we are all by ourselves, that’s for sure. Traveling also helps me a lot. The past couple of years were brutal in terms of inspiration. Just cause we re overwhelmed by news from the media that it’s very hard to be positive and inspired. But definitely find someone with the same passion in your city and start talking!

3 days with 4people at 100 dollars each day per person, making it 400 per day. 1200 for the project. Then the edit cost if needing special effects or other specialized editing? Is there not another more cost effective and efficient way?

Edit yourself and cut special effects ;)

@eladbari 2 года назад

I thought spec work was a 2006 kinda thing. I mean, people do personal projects for sure, but do they also create a 'Jeep' or 'Nike' kinda ad and display it to the same companies? Does it work today, and gets people hired by these companies?

@matteobertoli 2 года назад

2006? 😂 I think there are more spec work out there than actual commercials. Getting hired by those company was never really a think because they have multi million dollars contract with AD agencies. It happens occasionally that they might be interested in purchasing your project, but it’s rare and you don’t shoot a spec for that reason. With that said there are a good amount of spec ads platform coming up and they put together brands and creators.

@eladbari 2 года назад

@@matteobertoli Wait, so the objective is not to show your 'Jeep' work to 'Jeep', then who do you show it to? (With a disclaimer that its a spec work). I mean, if 'Jeep' won't hire you, I don't think 'Subaru' will hire you as well as all of these huge companies have an Ad agency. So, what's the workflow here regarding spec?, Who's the final viewer besides our friends/peers?

@matteobertoli 2 года назад

Did you actually watch the video? I explain it very clearly.

@eladbari 2 года назад

@@matteobertoli I did. You mean, just put it on your website/instagram? That's fine, but personally it feels like this spec work needs to be pushed actively to decision-making eyeballs. Not sure how, but if it stays on our personal social media, I'm not sure how much exposure it will get. I mean, none of us is like kylie jenner :)

Ciao Matteo, ottimi consigli, nel caso si prendesse un brand tipo orologi famosi per girare una sorta di spot, vi possono essere problemi nel pubblicarlo? Cioè il brand potrebbe farci storie per aver fatto un video utilizzando il loro marchio a loro insaputa? Grazire mille!!!

@matteobertoli 2 года назад

Non dovrebbero esserci problemi, ma metti in evidenza il fatto che sia uno spec nel titolo o in descrizione :)

@luca.85249 2 года назад

È la mia stessa preoccupazione. Forse sarebbe meglio pubblicizzare un brand falso?ho saputo di centinaia di cause legali su delle foto, figurati su brand famosi, penso sia a tuo rischio. Comunque gran bel video come sempre e consiglio. I know hundred of lawsuit on pictures, figure it out on famous brand. It's my same worry. Maybe will be better use a fake brand??? I know hundreds of lawsuits on puctures, figure it out on famous brands. I think its at your own risk . However very nice video as always, and nice advice Matteo Bertoli

@darkknightwithanidea1845 2 года назад

Don’t encourage spec work !!! EVER !!! It makes clients think they can exploit film makers & artists. YES invest in personal work …. But NEVER SPEC WORK…. Clients see this kind of ridiculous hard sell & jump on it & next thing is … you’ve got film makers being asked - ‘Can you work for free?…’ They’ll promise you your NEXT DREAM job & give you a NIGHTMARE of absolute LIES. Everyone needs to GET PAID, especially now that the pandemic is over & everyone is looking for PAID WORK. Full stop. You don’t go into a bar & ask for free drinks telling the barman … I’ll come back with friends & spend money tomorrow. Just don’t do it .. it lowers the bar for film makers all over the world. It’s hard enough already to break into this game. Doing it for free won’t get you anywhere.

@matteobertoli 2 года назад

No idea what you are talking about. If a client wanna use any of my work they’ll pay the price. You are the only owner of that project/footage. If You are that dumb to give it away for free, that’s another story. If Apple wanna buy one of my spec ad I’ll gladly send them a big, fat invoice :) Everything else you just said is complete nonsense.
