Would love to meet people in the NYC ad world. I'm planning to visit New York in 2026 to network and find ways to collaborate in Animation/vfx. I know it isn't easy for someone from outside the US to work with NYC-based agencies, especially knowing how tough the competition must already be within those circles. But it's my dream, call it Hollywood influence, to visit NY and work with bright and creative minds, I'll be visiting from the Nordics.

Thanks, yes, definitely doing that.

You should come in the spring, even if you can’t afford the AICP ticket(s), everyone is usually out and about. Also, I personally like the DGA new directors showcase at the DGA theater on West 57th St, which is free, and I’m always surprised that more people don’t go. That says the last few times I’ve been, it’s been busy. Just a nice socializing event and all the Reps are there of course, (scouring for new talent to sign).

Wondering if anyone can share the approximate timeline after applying to Target Corp. to hearing something from them. Applied 9/1 and on the applicant portal the status still says “in progress.” I got a great internal referral, but I’ve not reached out to the hiring manager. 😬 I know there were a few hundred applicants — what’s a realistic timeline and what could I say to the hiring manager if I reach out to them. Many thanks.
