Established skincare company and esthetics school is looking for a talented and creative individual to re-design our company logo. Our current logo has served us well for the past 35 years, but I am looking to simplify and modernize our image with something a bit more modern and clean.

The artist who creates the winning logo wins a cash prize.

I am looking for someone who is able to begin working on this project right away. Interested parties should send an e-mail ASAP for more specific details.


Location: Midtown East
Compensation: $350 Cash Prize for the Winning Submissions

This idiot isn't looking to pay $500 for a logo, they're looking to pay $400 for the first place in a contest! What do they get? The free work of any idiot stupid enough to create some. What do you get? Nothing. Flag these morons.

Photo Assistants do not work for this guy. He is looking to take advantage of you. There are better ways to learn then to do free work. He says it "might" lead to paid work, great you also might win the lottery.
If this guy was any good the client would give him a budget for an assistant. And if he is getting that then he is just a scumbag.

I think this was meant to be a parody of all the type of ads you are complaining about.

=================
Is this guy f**king serious?! Flag it, flag it, flag it. What kind of POS posts this trash? They think a professional photographer is going to lug thousands of dollars of equipment to his party, to shoot all of his “beautiful people” in exchange for a few cocktail wieners? And he has the balls to ask for all rights to the photos?! Spare me!

Im a young urban professional looking for a extremely talented photographer with 5-6 years experience to shoot my party. You must have a relevant degree and expensive equipment, big lenses and flashes preferred. I will retain all rights to the photos in return you may have all the Hors D’Ouevres (appetizers) you can eat and may ask for tips at the end of the night. Please submit resume 10-20 samples and short essay about why you should be chosen. Please be very good looking, my guests are very beautiful and important people and shouldn’t have to deal with people who are not.

I usually don’t do this, but you are crazy. Are you seriously not offering money for this?! So we make 6 logos for each company and do up to six revisions all within two weeks for no pay?

But, on top of it, and this is the clincher, you don’t want a novice?! So, you want a professional to work under deadline for free? That doesn’t make them a professional now does it?

Are you serious? 20 bucks for lunch! wtf. Pay for your help. If you can afford to have a studio in nyc you can afford the 200 bucks a day for real help.

YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED!! All that for lunch. Is it a $200 lunch? I am a pro photographer urging other photographers to flag posts like this and one’s that want us to work for free. We should be well paid for what we do. Don’t compromise the market. GET PAID WHAT YOU DESERVE!

What you are looking for is called an Assistant not an intern. If you want an intern go to NYU SVA etc and set-up through the school an internship where the student will receive credit to make up for your lack of pay.

If you dont want to do that Im sure there are tons of Assistants out there who would be happy to send you a resume and their day rate

this cracks me up. If you are so “busy”, that means you have a cash flow coming in. For fucks sake, PAY your help. I see this all the time and it shows how cheap photographers are. Do you think people want to work for the sake of saying, Oh I worked with so and so. Unless you are one of the top 30 in the industry, get a reality check and realize, the world could give 2 fucks who you are. You need help, pay them!!!
What an insult!
By the way Yes I am a photographer.
