Common mistakes clients make

Vague Requirements

Asking for a 'cool video' without specific references leads to disappointment. Always provide visual references (mood boards).

Unrealistic Timelines

Editing takes time. Expecting a polished commercial video the day after the shoot is unrealistic and compromises quality.

Key Takeaways

  • Always provide visual references.
  • Understand that post-production takes time.
  • Discuss revision limits upfront.
  • Don't micromanage the experts you hired.
