So do you feel those 24 hours were not productive?
were you kept there against your own free will?
Did you stay all those hours for a positive experience?It would be good to know why you work long hours?
Are you afraid of getting fired?

Just last night I was called to come back to work for some last minute nonsense. Keep in mind they fired our project manager who was good at her job. I got two Facebook posts from my CD to come in on non-work related threads. Yes, I said Facebook. (This amused my friends to no end.) I turned off my phone and ignored the entire shitbomb. When I checked my email at 11pm, the list of revisions looked like it was going to take an hour.
Morale of the story is, draw a line, make up an excuse, do whatever you need to do so you aren't taken advantage of by assholes who dug themselves into their own hole.

Go work at a giant corporation as a designer. Leave the small studio thing behind. You will never go back.

I hope you're getting overtime pay. 1.5x for 8-10 hours, 2x for 10+. I know in Cali, if you're not in a supervisory position (exempt employee), you are entitled to overtime. Also 40+ hours a week = overtime. My wife was working 40+ for over 2.5 years for a company and she got fed up, sued for OT pay and got her $$$. Check laws in your state...

Not to be harsh, but it's your fault. Learn to set some professional boundaries.
