Photo assignments in today's world

This amateur 3D-movie shows an "editor" hiring a "photographer" for a one-day shoot. Of course, the editor refuses to pay travel expenses, wants to grab all copyrights to the pictures, and will only pay £50 for the whole shoot. We found this hilarious, but a bit of warning, there is quite a bit of fool language (which is to be expected in that kind of situation)...

Excellent and thank you to the authors.

Would love to see another version with the photographer, using lots and lots of her time e.g. Thank you darling, how lovely to see you, I would love to do it, can I get back to you? Then either later or at the time giving sound explanations as to why her requirements don't make good business sense and what does make good business sense.

Ending with her blowing off steam to her publisher for the unreasonable expectation s/he has of her/him when dealing with "her photographers".
