I feel your pain. I deal with it everyday.

skonge, youd be surprised.
as high profile as they are though, all the sites are crap. i had sooooo many restrictions it was rediculous.
- skonge20
Doesn't sound too far fetched. You have some pretty high profile work in your portfolio, you should be able to get work.

thanks frow.
i was a latch key kid, but it was neccessary. my mom was single and couldnt stay home with me.
if i can avoid baby sitters, day cares, and random after school carpools for my future children, i will.

Nothing crazy about wanting to be a mommy. Most noble of all professions, in my opinion. It's a huge task to raise a human life. A very beautiful thing too.

@frow - yup i go back and fourth from fro to un-fro. i like wearing my hair natural because it really isnt so bad. im happy with what i was born with. (most of the time)
@skonge - yes im freelancing (or trying to) so i can buy a house soon. then.. i dont know.. it'll either be a full time job for freelancing full time. cant decide.
my life long dream (its crazy) is to be a mommy.. so im trying to set it up so in the next 3 years or so i can work at be at home and work on the side and still make a decent amount of money every year. i dont have to be the bread winner of the household though. it'll probably never happen though and i'll be stuck working full time for the rest of my life.

Theres one in Venice, I can't remember. I'll ask my work mate when he gets back.

yeah, some of the portfolios on aquent sucks but not sure how they get in.
try calling Art directors and CD and find out if you can set up time to meet with them. When I was doing freelance, I wrote everything in a book to keep track of who I called and who I've sent my promos to. It's time consuming but handy.

the creative group denied me too, but that was a year ago.. but i recently sent my stuff again with no responce. bitches.
theres another angency in west LA, but i cant remember what they were called. they denied me last year too...but i dont think they would now with everything i've added to my portfolio.
anyone know what agency im talking about?
