I’m just starting up as a freelancer after years of being a full time agency employee. Any big watch outs before finalizing my contract? What about frequency of invoicing and defining billable time? Any guidance on freelancing dos and don’ts is much appreciated.

As of last Friday, 2 CDs left Droga NYC.

How does a seasoned indie music producer and mixer transition into commercial composition and mixing for tv, advertising and film? Im self-taught, constantly learning, and feel it’s a tragedy that I can’t do the one thing I only want to do, and that is to work full time mixing or producing. My portfolio is vast. I’m just working on soundtracking a short film to be exposed to more of that kind of @work, but nobody is responding to my job applications

Hi car 🐟

Been looking into 2019 Infiniti QX50, Lincoln MKC, Mazda CX-5, Chevy Equinox, and other similar compact to mid size SUVs but having hard time making the decision.

What are some affordable SUVs that i can buy with ~$25k budget? Hopefully it's post 2019 model and has good fuel economy and reliability (low maintenance cost). I'm less concerned on the mileage but wanting good horsepower (~250hp). Any suggestions? Thanks for your insights.

What’s the best way of selling work to your boss if he’s just not current on new stuff? I keep getting handed references from some directors from 10 years ago and I want to say “hey, what about something from this year, not last century”

People who made high-profile ads people hated: do you keep them in your portfolio?

Has anyone experienced being partnered with someone at a different level or point in their career? Did it harm/ help you? How do you navigate getting partnered with someone at a different level, or asking to have a partner with your level of experience without causing an issue?

ok so you actually really like your current shop, good brands, work life balance, clear progression (believe it or not?!)

Then you get approached by a place a lot of people on this app see as one of the best in the biz

What do you do? Stick or twist…

How hard is it to get a job in another country? There’s a bunch of international agencies I admire, but I don’t know anyone who’s searched for an international job.

Best website service / hosting for portfolio sites? I’m leaning Adobe, but interested to hear what else is good

Did anyone else watch the One Show special awards ceremony earlier? Did you also find it irritating?

The lack of honesty in this industry saddens me. Dear CDs and ECDs, if you're gonna put work in your book that you barely touched/had nothing to do with, at least credit those who came up with it.

I am beyond stuck in my first 1.5 years of my career.

I was over promised opportunities at my first gig and then Covid hit. Leading me to have no portfolio worthy pieces from this 💩 agency with nothing great in sight. (place hasn’t won a pitch in my entire time here + lost clients)

I’m juggling re-vamping my site and a side project to hopefully make my book more robust.

With no kind of leadership or mentor, I’m just figuring out how to dig myself out of this hole. Any advice for this chump?

Thoughts on Bo Burnham's Inside? It's honestly depressing not only in content but also to see one person create something so amazing just on their own. Here I am struggling just to make an alright ad, meanwhile I should probably just forget ads and actually make something decent instead. Sigh.

Anyone know who did the 30 seconds to Mars campaign?

I’m currently interviewing and there’s something about the CCO that I’m getting a bad feeling about. But everyone says he’s great. Maybe I’m crazy?

I have a photographer/ videographer on my team who is amazingly talented at executing the work, but he has no larger creative ideas or vision, and totally shuts down when we try to push him. Has anyone ever successfully grown someone like this or is it a lost cause?

What are benefits of working with a content strategist on a project?

Can someone describe the difference between Apple in Culver vs Apple in Cupertino?
(Types of work, culture, pay, teams, etc.)

Junior here. How common is it to be nudged off a brief when you can't get ideas through internally? My partner and I are often put on the same briefs as more experienced (sometimes senior) teams. As a result, their work tends to make it through to the client presentation while most of ours dies somewhere along the way from CD to CCO. Is this worth worrying over?

Has anyone transferred or moved from a US agency to a Toronto-based one? Asking for a self 😬

Dear CDs and ecds who give all the good projects to your favs, know that we all see you and your favs will be the first to leave because you stacked their books too fast. Love, everyone else.

My friend just recently got promoted to a sr. ad and he knows he’s going to eat a pay bump but wants to know what the norm is. I’ve never moved so my viewpoint isn’t normal. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
