ive been freelancing for 12 years, doing web shit, working on TV commercial sets, photography sets, shooting stuff etc. Ive kept very busy. Lately concentrating on a commercial directing career but doing websites as main source of income until i get more work doing commercials.
Its been a struggle every day, not knowing when your next check is coming, but I feel blessed that the days of having $5 in my bank account are far fewer in between.
I can set my own schedule, wake up when i want to, work as long as I want to, leave when i feel like it etc. As long as I meet my client deadlines and expectations, its all good. This has allowed me to work on some amazing film and photography shoots and nurture my other creative skills.
I wouldnt trade it in for a steady job anytime soon.
- Exactly - so true. I used to shit myself when i finished a contract. But something would always come in within a week and keep me safelessfloor
