Please join Nice Moves for a Freelance Open Forum on Thurs, June 14th, 2018 at MCAD.

It’s no secret that there is a limited number of full-time opportunities in MN, so that leads a lot of people down the freelance path. But where do you begin? If you have started freelancing, how do you keep going? If I have a full-time job, how can I freelance on the side? Our Freelance Open Forum will be beneficial for not only current freelancers looking to gain greater success, but also full-time artists interested in freelancing on the side.

We’ll chat with our professional panel of Designers, Animators, and VFX artists about their experience with freelancing. We’ll also have a local studio owner on the panel to speak from the hiring perspective. Although we might only scratch the surface on the deep topic of freelancing, you’re sure to leave with a list of best practices as well as some solid action steps to advance your career.

Overview of some of topics we’ll cover
First steps to freelancing, Hourly rates, Equipment and software, Continuing education, Time management, Online presence
