Yeah

Working on a project for 2 weeks, getting the last piece filmed today and AFTER the filming is over.

“You know...We need to do this from a mobile perspective”

Okay, we can add a nod to the mobile app, no problem

“I was thinking we should do this and do the whole thing as a mobile version.”

you mean dump the entire project and start over?

“yeah, the app wasn’t ready 2 weeks ago and we have time since we don’t need it until april...”

Okay [dumbass] we can do that, we can come up with a different approach that suits that goal more since a tutorial isn’t really going to work as well anymore

“no same approach, just on mobile”

So instead of an tutorial video that makes sense in a landscape frame, you want to redo it in a portrait frame that will less clear...but on mobile?

“Most people use mobile, we should tailor it to mobile”

But what we have 99% done now works the exact same, it just looks better and is more clear.

“okay let me think about it”

So your bosses agree with me, lets do it my way, and make it educational AND fun.

Ouch.

It now seems relevant that I’m currently looking for education in a different field. Haha.

Oof that sucks, this is why I’m a systems admin. I hate dealing with sales/marketing people.

Could you counter with anything about how reshooting would affect the budget?

Ain’t no budget, just my time which is worth very little it seems
