Boss Doesn't Tell Me What They Want Upfront and Takes Over Shoot. What can I do?
I am a videographer for a small company and we got a new marketing director. I can tell this person has a vision for what they want, but they have this habit of not telling me what that vision is up front, AND taking over the shoot by the reins.
I don't know how to tell them "hey, can you do your job, and I can do mine?"
Basically, she pitches an idea for a video of what she wants, then I make it happen, I show her the video and it's always off. And then she cleans it up herself, instead of letting me clean it up.
Recently I had to add captions to a video and I was going to ask if she had certain captions in mind, but I don't. Sure enough, I submit the video and she tells me the captions are off, and she will do them herself.
I don't know how to talk to her about this issue.
