Bodybuilding Videographers

We are looking for videographers interested in shooting female bodybuilders. Videos are about bodybuilding posing and bodybuilding workout. We are not interested in fitness athletes, but only in muscular women. We do not request a professional videographer, but if you are a pro it is better. We are based in Italy and we have exhausted the Italian athletes, for this reason we are looking for videographers in all the world. That means if you are from Brazil, USA, Russia, Australia, Bulgaria, ... you are welcome, because you will have the chance to shoot female bodybuilders in your country. The only things we request is: honesty, a good videocamera and the passion for this kind of work. We will pay you, the model and your travel costs (if you have to move). If you are interested fill in the form below.

Guidelines

1. The athlete has to sign the model release before shooting and not after the shoot.
2. Music is not allowed. We cannot sell videos that contain music because there are more taxes to pay in Italy and hard procedures to be able to sell clip with music. If there are radio on or tv on you cannot shoot. If you are in a gym with the radio you cannot shoot.
3. No other persons have to appear in the video. The only person in the video will be the female bodybuilder. If you want another person in the video we have to get a model release for him/her too.
4. Wherever you are make the white balance on your camera.
5. If possible try to shoot outdoor.
6. Do not shoot in a hotel room. Shoot in hotel room only if you do not have another place available
7. No other persons have to appear in the video. The only person in the video will be the female bodybuilder. If you want another person in the video we have to get a model release for him/her too.
8. Take at least 10 pictures for any video. We consider a video a movie of 30 minutes. All the pictures have to be taken in different poses: do not make 10 pictures all in the same pose.
9. Take the pictures first rather than after the video shoot as the girls were tired
10. Take one pic only of her face.
11. Stay very close to the model, about one step (but no more) from her.
12. Do not zoom. Zoom is not allowed. If you are far from the model and you want to zoom follow this procedure: turn your camera off, go near the model framing the part you wanted to zoom and now turn the camera on.
13. Always keep the camera low. At most one meter (one feet long) from the ground. The shooting has to go from low to high.
14. Do not leave air over the head of the model and do not leave air at the left and right side: the model has to fill in all the frame. For example we consider this a good frame/shot because the athlete fill in the frame. This one is not considered good because you can find air over her head and there is air on left and right side. The rule is that the model has to fill in ALL the space available in camera.
15. The athlete can talk during the video: the more she talks the better is. She can explain what kind of exercise it is, if she likes it, if she usually do it, ....
16. do not make the video with an outfit and photos with another one. Photos will introduce/represent the video so they have to be taken with the same features (outfit, environment, poses, ...) of the video. We will use the photos as a free preview of the movie, so if they are not tuned with the video we could have problems with our customers.
17. Make sure the girl has a good make up, red lipstick and good hair. If she has not make up, ask her to use it

Please do not consider such guidelines as suggestions because they are rules. If you do not follow the first 3 points we could not sell the video.
