I’m creating a new book from scratch - mostly spec. What’s the best way to show tv without being able to film it? Are key frames ok? I’m thinking it’s either find a way or don’t do it. Thoughts?

TV is so production dependent, better to focus on things you can produce well for your book.

I agree.

Many of our artists are open to collaborating on spec portfolio work, awards or pro bono campaigns. Send us a note with what you’re thinking.

You can always partner with film folks. Students at the BYU AdLab are killing it right now in student commercials because ADs and CWs are partnering up with content creators, directors and DPs who are also trying to make quality spec work.

tough one. traditional storyboards are pretty linear and non-sexy. look at how comic books sell you the story and find an illustrator that can get you a sense of motion, emotion, and everything that goes along with moving pictures

I'd disagree here on finding an illustrator. It will look cheap. Just don't do video unless you're shooting it yourself. And don't shoot it yourself unless you can make it professional. Which often means text or VO over well curated stock video. There's better ways to show big thinking than attempting video at this point.

I just left my pre-seed startup that was running out of cash (we made $100,000 in revenue this year, and sunk $1m in costs). I was making $40,000 as a developer (plus 20k stock options at $1/share per year) and they refused to pay me any more money. I have 17,000 vested stock options, total number of shares at the time of my contract was 4million. I’m a bit confused about share dilution and if it’s worth it for me to buy some of my stock options… thanks in adv!
