Hola Fishes! Welcome to the Canada specific bowl. We can discuss about jobs, products, preferences, research, IT, digital and consulting in Canada!

Potential new job is flying me across the country….for a one hour interview. Red flag? Or just a formality since they want me to relocate so I can see what it’s about?

Do you all sometimes feel overwhelmed by all the self care tips you see online. Gua sha, sleeping mask, satin pillowcase, this body wash, that scrub, dermaplaning. I don’t know what I should do vs. what not. 😰 and I feel like if I don’t do it, I’m not taking care of myself and not going to look good a few years later. 😓

Things have been super stressful at work lately for a variety of reasons & a couple of weeks ago I decided to raise the issues with my Creative Director.
For context, he’s the reason for a lot of these problems and I (tactfully, I think) said as much. He listened to me patiently but took no responsibility and deflected blame with every issue raised.
Today he asked me to send an email to him about how overworked I am so that he can use it to talk to management. (cont. in comments)

I get really anxious and have a hard time reading emails where I know there will be really challenging feedback or comments from the client. Obliviously, something I am working on as I rise in the ranks. Anyone experience this and have tips on how to manage it?

Kind folks, I have 3 yoe in the Cyber security domain. Currently earning 7lpa. What should be a target salary and highest variation I can target?

Website question: is it bad to have a few spots that are over five years old? I keep them down at the bottom and the majority are much newer so they sort of serve as a ‘best of’ my older work.

Which agencies have the best in-house departments?

Anyone have a magic number that would make you give up freelancing and take a staff job? (New York)

Anybody had a good experience working as an editor repped by a commercial editorial/post shop?

Opinions on if it’s a bad thing to stay at one place for awhile? I’m enjoying the work and steady pay but I worry about getting totally out of the loop at other places. Before this I moved around alot

Ok dumb question alert. What does it take to “conform” the work of a colorist. I know it’s normally in Flame, but if it’s conform only - can it be done in Premiere or After Effects?

I work at a post-house and made a spec spot using a bunch of footage that was provided to us by a client (direct to brand relationship, not via an agency). Clients haven’t seen....

Roll call. How much experience? Do you staff in a boutique? An agency? Freelance? If freelance, do you usually work in agency studios, prodcos...? Do you bring on a post producer to help on big jobs?

Pitch videos. It has now become standard to be handed a vo script with no thought as to what’s on screen. When did the editor's job become thinking up the images as well?

Does anyone include a bit on invoices like "Accounts not paid within terms are subject to a .75% monthly (9% annual) finance charge" or something like that?

Tangentially, has anyone had an invoice with 30-day terms kicked back for revisions because the client's terms are longer, or do they just ignore what you've stipulated?

Curious what comp package and terms it’d take for successful 5+ YOE freelancers to consider staff? Please also leave your YOE w response.

Looking for advice on a new monitor for my at home work setup. I’ve got a new M1 Mac MacBook Pro coming soon, and I am replacing my 2015 iMac, so I am in need of a monitor, and I have never purchased a monitor in my life. Always had iMacs.
I’m definitely interested in ultrawide too.

Hi Editors!
What did your transition from AE to editor look like?

5 months ago I joined an advertising post house as a full-time AE. Through the support of a lead editor at the company I found my way into making cuts for the company’s most prestigious client. At this point, I’ve been the sole editor of one global campaign and a co-editor of another, in addition to cutting many social media videos. It’s only 5 months but I can’t help feel that my title doesn’t reflect the work I actually do.

I’m so glad this bowl finally exists.

I’m 30yo w/ 6yrs copywriting experience. I realized I find my joy in edit, and it’s what i want to do. I’m self taught, no reel. Am i crazy? What do i do to get in the biz? What should i expect?

I am soooo slow right now… nyc. How’s everyone else doing. I’m getting a little nervous about this economy and seeing a lot of layoffs in other bowls 😣

Hey everyone - any freelance editors or editors/director/makers who live in (or work in) the Atlanta market?

Is anyone here a movie trailer editor? I’m looking looking for some relative input regarding what experienced, senior editors typically make in the film advertising industry.

Hi friends, any agency editors gone from editing in house to art or creative directing? If so, how? I love editing, but I see myself in a more conceptual role down the road. Thanks for any insights y’all can provide ❤️
