What’s an appropriate salary for an S3 in tax in MCOL? I don’t want to go into a discussions with a number in mind and it be too high/into a manager salary.

LinkedIn is a garbage app where I can’t even post my opinion or experience because it will go against the mainstream ideologies. If I even “like” a post then I worry that my peers and managers see what I like and suddenly I need inclusivity training. What a load of shit! You can’t be who you truly are on that app. Which is why I like fishbowl so much, the anonymity is a game changer. If LinkedIn was a anonymous, we’d see a lot more support for Kanye and a lot less LGBQT material. Bet!

Planning on getting married in a temple in the US. Does anyone know what all paperwork (eg marriage license, certificate, registration) I should be thinking about and how to get it done?

This winter just doesn’t freaking end. This is absolutely ridiculous. 🙄

Have a growth equity interview coming up and as part of that they said they’ll want me to analyse customer data.

Curious what the compensation / commission model is for US director reps? I work in Canada. Thanks I’m advance!

Reps: do you feel it’s wrong to submit Freece directors for jobs over your paying rostered clients? If the lead isn’t a fit for your rostered clients is leaving the opportunity (and potential money) on the table the “right” thing to do or are you stuck feeling a sense of loyalty to the producer seeking talent?

My s/o has been approached for representation as a motion director. Commercial animation. Can anyone point me in the direction of any resources on what he should look out for in a representation agreement?

I’m a digital producer and have no clue what’s fair / what fees these types of production companies typically take. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Reps, you have a client who you’ve had for less than a year. You’ve helped them secure a couple small jobs in that time span. They book a big job with an agency that isn’t a house account but certain producers and clients at that agency are noted as house accounts. The job came through a reco from one of those house account producers. Do you charge the full 25k commission, even though you didn’t really have a hand in the sale, and the client already had a strong relationship with the agency?

Hey AIR team,
How do you confirm a company that approaches you from Europe is legitimate? I have a media company from Turkey asking me to quote some animation for them. They have a website, have given their address (which is an actual address on google maps), and have given phone numbers which I haven't tried yet. I have let them know that if we work together, I'd require 50% up front, 35% midway and 15% before delivery of final elements and they say they're fine with that. Anything else?

If you’re going to AICP LA tomorrow night DM me. Let’s make this dream reality.

Reps how do you handle when a producer requests reels from you then doesn’t watch a single one and completely ghosts you after submission?

West Coast and Midwest reps who actually get consistent food and tabletop boards, where you at? I’ve got a director with a great reel of mostly over delivered low budget work, but a strong client list. I’m looking for someone who is a go to resource for agencies with these tops of jobs. I’ve already submitted a form on the AIR website. Thanks :)

Hi friends, does anyone have a female director based in Florida that can do real people and even better yet, celebrity?

Producers & Creatives: when reviewing reels for a project, what’s your strategy? First few spots only, watch spots based on brand or thumbnail, well known company or director name first and foremost?
