Ok this post is about to make me sound ancient… what are we doing with that pina zangaro portfolio book that’s been stuffed in the back of the closet for a solid decade now?

I was thinking of making it into a sort of coffee table book with family photos in the sleeves. But I’m having a really hard time repurposing it. So much time printing and trimming! My professors swore it was an *investment*! There’s no universe in which I use this thing again professionally, right?

I’ve thought about that recently, too. It was so expensive to build a book. Print it out, and everything.

I still have mine somewhere and I have no clue what to do with it. Maybe we start a museum of the books that got current creative leaders their first jobs?

I’ve been meaning to sell mine on eBay ever since I produced my first tv spot

Go for it! : )

Oh the hundreds of dollars wasted on supplies that my professors told me I HAD to buy…

I like the museum idea, we can all enter through an arch of old xacto blades in acrylic or something 😅

Ha shit. I still have mine too. It was clear acrylic with a frost effect and my logo screen printed in it. Thanks for bringing me back. Last year I used it was 2012.

Just became an ACD. Im in a limbo. Half of the time im being treated as a Super Senior AD and the other half im being treated as a Almost CD. Then when im scoped over work that my CD and I oversee, some people are asking me how does my role differ from the CD’s, as they tend to look at me as an unnecessary layer for approvals. In a way, i do the job so well that i get asked to do more AD projs and guide more projs — but then: wtf does my CD do? They mostly just 👍🏻what i direct n approve

What’s your take on a job listing that states “From $xx,xxx”

The particular job I’m looking at has this on the listing and I’m curious as to what their budget actually is. Do I assume a range?

They’re seeking someone with 5-8 years experience. I have the latter (8 almost 9)

How would I approach this when asked without pricing myself out of the position? Especially if they’re not willing to be upfront (assuming here) how much they’d want to offer me in particular.
