Lost in the textures of Patagonia. 🇨🇱✨ I recently wrapped this spec project capturing the atmospheric essence of Chile. My primary challenge was "Style Locking"—ensuring that the color grade and lighting remained consistent from the wide-scale landscapes to the intimate macro details of the horse gear. Which shot is your favorite? 1, 5, or 10? 👇

Curious how other video editors and creatives here actually land consistent clients.

Was it LinkedIn outreach? Finding agencies that hire freelancers and getting on their roster? Showing up where clients already hang out?

I've been doing direct outreach via LinkedIn Sales Navigator, applying to agency rosters, and submitting proposals here on Contra. Getting traction but interested in what's actually worked for others - especially for repeat or ongoing relationships rather than one-off projects.

For context: I focus on branded content and corporate video, working with clients in the UK, Ireland, and Europe remotely from the Netherlands.

What moved the needle for you?
