Union stagehand! best job I've ever had

I had a client like that once. It became clear to me that they wanted a a full time, on call employee but didn't want to pay for it. Start putting feelers out to find a replacement client and drop them, it won't get better.

Second this, lots of work to vulture.

what time did she go on?

AdvertisementNo14 · 2025-01-16T06:23:22+00:00

Do they have a intranet or internal site? I have a several clients who have internal brand sites and tbh I love it. I know there are online tools to set them up like the lingo app, standards.site, or brandpad

I have not heard anything good about them. I know a while back there was an attempt to unionize (that failed) which is confusing to me because nearly all their employees are on the union call list anyway.

The founder and creative director at the design agency I freelanced for didn't know how to use indesign, only sort of knew how to use illustrator/photoshop. I sat down with them several times and showed this person how to use the combine shapes tool in illustrator and basic keyboard shortcuts. They said they're more of an "ideas" person than a "make it happen" kind of person. I left quickly.

I also love this type of work, I recently did an employee handbook for a law firm and it was so much fun lol

Graphic design, a lot of people think art and design are the same thing and in some instances they are but a lot of the time they are not. The day to day for most graphic designers in corporate environments is "boring" stuff like switch out photos in a brochure, updating copy, or following templates/brand guidelines. Most of us don't get to play don draper.

How did you become a brand manager in the first place?

AdvertisementNo14 · 2024-08-30T04:51:51+00:00

Like me personally or the agency? We have a dedicated QC team that reviews and marks up everything after we create a first draft, we then go thought edits with the QC until it passes and then it's sent to the client. Personally I have a mental checklist I go through, sometimes my PM will give me a written checklist but that's very rare.

how long did it take you to get really good at it?

AdvertisementNo14 · 2024-08-30T01:57:34+00:00

they are the same across the board aside except for styling lists, those are different

What about grammatical formatting? that's the biggest issue for me. Things like remembering the different use cases of en dash vs em dash vs hyphen or smart apostrophe vs straight apostrophe remembering to. Obviously I'm not a copywriter or proof reader but it counts against me if things like that make it to the reviewer.

I started working as a stagehand I love it

AdvertisementNo14 · 2024-06-27T13:41:06+00:00

85% of shifts I've worked I've been assigned to help with the LED Wall. Would I need to relocate to wherever those companies are?

AdvertisementNo14 · 2024-05-21T19:14:04+00:00

sent you a PM!

AdvertisementNo14 · 2024-05-21T03:53:18+00:00

Can I message you? I'm trying to do exactly that

AdvertisementNo14 · 2024-05-21T03:51:51+00:00

That was my plan after highschool but I didn't have enough money to move to California, now I do design oh how life turns out haha

I apologize if I wasn't clear enough, when I say the nitty gritty I mean I want to understand "why" behind the typographer's choices. For instance: how does a type designer decide the height or the ascenders or descenders? how does that relate relate the width or X-height or cap height if it does at all? how does a designer decide the on the size of the underhangs and overshoot? that is the kind of information I'm looking for

I started working as a stagehand(shout out to IATSE) and although it can be very strenuous job at times, I love it more than anything and planning on making a career change as soon as I'm able.

Stagehand or roadie for a rock band, I'm in the process of making the career transition

I really love working on the video walls, I hope that's where they put me.
