Rodeo searches new talented artists
JuhaT:
Good question,
yes we have a certain requirements but still check every applicant even if she/he doesn't met the exact numbers because some have just started and if we see that they have potential we can make an agreement with them. However if someone has 100 good photos and says that those have been taken in two years we have to say no. The reason is explained in our strategy at the start of this thread. We also check the portfolios in content matter. Some has great photos but the content is somehow not suitable in (our personal point of view) Finnish markets. To answer directly to your question that in rare case someone has great portfolio in personal page and we found out that a large amount of hires images in submission isn't good enough in technical matter we have to terminate the agreement. We check the portfolios carefully and estimate how many rejects there will be.
In general every agency have their own (I know, every once in a while it seems to be kind of twisted) strategies who to accept to be a photographer and what kind of images are accepted and what rejected. Personally (and being stock photographer myself) I would definitely don't waste my time by thinking so carefully what is accepted and what rejected, it just takes too much time and all that energy can be used to plan a next shooting and so on. ;)
Happy shootings to everyone!
