The changed the marketing woman…

I’m upset.

My biggest client last year, the marketing woman turns to me and says, I’m going on maternity leave, and straight away I knew, that was the end of that. Because every time they change the marketing woman you get forgotten.

And my work for them was really good. Actually stuff I was constantly happy with. And I had bigger ideas but..

Here’s the insult, I just saw them post a promo video made by someone else. And it’s so mid. There are shots in the dark which are just pitch black. Clearly don’t know how to film in the dark. No story or craft just some random clips slapped to some music for 20 seconds. Maybe she filmed it herself but I doubt it. But it’s something I could have done better. So what’s that all about?

And it might be that they come back for me to film an event or something, but nah I’m vexed. Am I wrong to think, if someone doesn’t value you or your work, and they par you off, that it’s a bit of a disrespect? They have the right to do whatever they like but why write me off for no apparent reason and without saying a word?

Because I did a one promo for new marketing woman and it went fine. No issues.

Professionally, if you were me and you did hear from them again, what would you do?
