Ted Forbes Answers the Question ‘Should I Work for Free?’

Ted Forbes of the popular YouTube channel The Art of Photography just posted a short 8-minute video in which he discusses the oft-debated question: “Should I work for free?”

“I can tell you that in my 20 year career I’ve run across this offer of work for ‘exposure’ more times than I’d have liked to. I’ve got some fairly strong opinions on this as well,” he says. “You will have to make up your own mind as to what you want to do with your career but hopefully this video will give you a few pointers that might help.”
