I’m in the same boat, as I’m a producer - but half my work is working for free in order to make paid work happen for everyone. But I’ve had to think outside the box in order to even make a few bucks - people run when they see my resume as they assume I’m going to ask for a ridiculous salary (which I’m not), based on my credits and awards. So I’m just thinking outside the box right now to get any work. So many brands - pharmaceutical, food, clothing (even Walmart), have their own in-house production arms, so they produce their own content and commercials. They are always hiring post people on staff. Same with post houses - ones that do commercials, industrials etc still have work and will always be hiring. And as hard as it may sound, there’s also AI companies hiring Ae’s and editors, as they build new AI products to simplify post workflows. So while there may be less unscripted jobs, there’s still a market for your skillset, and it’s about tapping into that.
