yo - intrigued by the PSP stuff on your webpage - who was that done for fate?

smellvetica, just pitch-work. Making the site, writing a good proposal and seeing if I can get it online.
This isn't for anyone that needs money, as there's a chance that the projects that get worked on my not be accepted by the client. But that's why I'm just asking for anyone in their spare time interested in doing something. If the client does accept the work, however, it's a good way to bolster your portfolio while maintaining creative freedom.

great, as long as you understand it's not stolen.

I didn't say it was stolen......
hmmmnn...you still at school?
Goddamn, I hate going to school and trying to see one of my sites for testing on the school's crap computers. It's depressing.
a)They're stuck in 800x600
b) They are locked down tight, no installation of hardware or even downloads
c) They run Flash5...and you can't upgrade
d)They are ancient machines with the monitors brightness all real low.grrr.

he's pitching to them... and what's the harm in trying? Believe it or not, most companies smile upon fate's enthusiasm... the 'suits' like initiative.

(Dec 16 04, 05:10)I just can't see sony being approached by a student, and giving him a chance, yeeeah right!
I guess you know how the pitching system works?
- abizzyman0
'student' or professional - if the work and professionalism is there, why wouldn't they look at it?
You get the right person and you're in... it's all a matter of timing w/luck.
I've gotten jobs as an 'unknown' and happen to know a few others that were either at the right place at the right time - or happened to have something that caught someone's eye and they ended up getting work (there's an NT fellow who's a perfect example)... I could care less if it's Sony or some mom & pop shop...
it's all about timing... how the hell do you think companies get started?

listen...
fate, you're in High School, i don't think your in the position to be asking people to form a 'Professional Partnership'. working designers have rent/bills to pay, they dont still live at home with mommy and daddy. you should have been very clear with this in your first post 'im a student and looking for somebody to help me with some cool projects im working on'
this isnt bagging on you, this is just a reality check. for somebody in high school, what you're doing is really great. but this is a msg board made up mostly of working proffessionals, not kids who are still learning and completing their very first projects.
- HerbertG0
but I'm saying is right - it's like a bad website from 1990 no? yes
- DutchBoy0
save i agree with the others here.. you are being way pessimistic here..
ofcourse fate knows he does not make a great chance but at least the guy is taking initiative and employing himself and his creativity as a trial for a carreer to come. Most students i know do not usually do this sort of thing.
You can learn a great deal of the mistakes you make in an early stage.
and if Fate likes the PSP a lot then it could be an extra motivation to make something awesome for it.
i have used these sort of tactics as well and it enriched me with knowledge and guts.
*tiips hat to Fate.
keep going, man!
