I was a Director of Photography shooting tv series and small features. When we would go to a location to shoot a scene we'd have to finish that day. If we didn't finish it was really expensive to come back and they didn't want to pay overtime so quite often, the last few shots had to be done quickly (they quite often scheduled more than should be realistically done). The production manager would push me to go fast, fast, fast. I'd tell him it would look like crap and they wouldn't like it. I was always told to just shoot it no mater how it looked because we couldn't come back and they didn't want to pay overtime. I'd do what they asked.

When we'd look at the daily's (the film that was shot the previous day) they'd look at it and say it looks like shit and we have to go back. We'd always go back.

I realized very early in my career that 'their was never enough time to do it right but there was always time to do it over'.
