After speaking with a few headhunters and ad-specific career coaches, I realized that my best TV work gives away my age at a glance; it was shot before every device had 4K, and looks like hell in HD. I found a way to upscale the resolution to 4K with noticeably improved quality. I think the solution I found has applications beyond advertising, and I've begun up scaling older, low-res content for directors and production companies, just a few, but I think this could be my ticket out (continued)

If anyone in this Bowl has some older footage that would really serve your career better if it was sharper, clearer, and more detailed in 4K, I'd like to help, and if you'd like to help me launch this new business in the teeth of the worst Recession in history, I'll thank you with two free upscales for each one you buy. It's $500 for 30 seconds, and takes about 48 hours to render. This process can also be used to zoom in on footage in post, so instead of only being able to enlarge a scene by 10-15%, you can push in by 100%, and with IMPROVED quality in some cases. OK, let me know if this is a terrible idea or not.

Can you advise ad career coaches to reach out to?

Sure, but be prepared to shell out $200/hr. DM me as I don't want to share private emails publicly.

Which offer should I accept? Currently staff 2 at big 4 in Tax with CPA license. I want to leave tax ASAP. Both are public companies +1B in revenue and same salary. Offer 1 - staff revenue accountant so reading contracts, speaking with the sales team and legal team, a lot of work at the end of the months to close books and reconcile transactions to make sure we are ASC 606 compliant. This track usually leads to director of revenue. Offer 2 - internal audit staff so SOX and compliance projects.
