Lisen,

A lot of you have used photoshop. Well, I think is time you use it for your own good.

I work at a spanish newspaper in FL, and in the last 2 years I have been to so many events for free, that is ridiculous. The last thing I went to was the Latin Billboard Awards in Miami ... that was last thursday, 4/28. I was in Miami for like 2 days, meeting all these spanish artist and what not. I saw Ricky Martin, Thalia, and YES J'LO ... well those 3 are like the biggest spanish artist. I'll post some pics later.

Well, all you need to get in for free to events like concerts, movies, performing arts, conventions, trade shows, parades, any event is to say that you work for a newspaper publication.

These are the steps to do.
-Create a PRESS CREDENTIALS pass, the size of your Driver's Lic.
-also make one that is 3inwide x 7inl.
-make a logo for your 'fake newspaper' or if you have balls try to use a local publication.
-if you google press credentials you should get a general idea of what to do.
-get the proper paperwork to get credentials for an event
(ex) like the latin billboard awards, I went to their website and follow their instructions. http://www.billboardevents.com/billboar ... 004new.jsp
-bring a nice camera.

After all the paperwork is done, you don't have to show proof, just pick up your credentials, and wear them with the ones from your publication and you are set.

For movies, just call the cinema a head of time, and tell them you are doing reviews of upcoming movies.

I just though you should get the same opportunity as I do ... you get great seats, sometimes you get free food and drinks, and what not.

Oh, remember to laminate your credentials at a staples or something, is like $3.00

Why would I want to go see Ricky Martin and J'LO? And I don't even know who Thalia is.

Well, those are just things in my area ... you can see whatever you want. You could go to a Metalica concert or a Davee Mathews Concert.

I went to a Limp Bizkit concert last year and I didn't write anything about it.

I'm in a spanish newspaper, so I go to spanish events.

are you saying you fully filled out the proper paperwork and obtained a pass? or did you just make your own and acted like you did? just a bit lost... sorry

hey where in Florida do you live?

I have my own Press Pass cause I work as a photographer at a newspaper in Tampa, FL

But when you go to huge events, they also supplie you with their own passes.

Like allowing you to go to the red carpet, backstage, and so on.

As a Photographer you get a lot more freedoms to go all around.

Does this work with the porn industry?

PIC PLS MR.C
 

Its too late for my eyes to be reading so lemme just ask you, mr.clean, hows the girl situation, all of us single guys need a serious update with *cough* plenty of pics *cough*

And for once, Jin-Roh has a point, what about the porno industry..

Neat. I'm 90 mins south of you holmes.

I did this at the Detroit auto show a few years ago in high school. Me an some buddies borrowed some high end cameras from our school since one of my friends was taking all those advanced video and media production classes. We showed up at the auto show the second day it was open. If you don't know, its only open to the press for the entire first week. We said we were filiming a Detroit documentary and got in free. We also recorded the whole thing. Pretty awesome, I just had to hold a boom mic for a while and help talk our way into press passes.

These people steal photoshop, they should go to jail. Run fast.

I have not used it for the porno industry ...

I'll be the first to try it out ... well here ... I send a letter to Vivid video saying that we are starting an adult section, and wish to review upcoming movies.

I have a shit load of pics from this award thing, I'll see if I can upload some good ones.


Also, as a photographer you can actually use the line
"Do you mind if I photograph your sexy body? ... A naked body like that should be posted all over the web."
