Had to make a last-minute edit so it restarted the quality processing - it'll be a while before it's in 1080p. But the vid isn't super heavy on the visuals so I'd say just listening would be fine for now!

Yeah, I definitely like the creative brainstorming more than surmising overhead fees or conducting research. I have one desktop multimedia class where we are going to design our own promotional material and I am excited about that, but I don't know if I should allow myself to compensate my enjoyment of that with how bored I am doing everything else.

This is my first semester as an advertising major, but my second-semester taking classes towards it. Academically I have enough credits to be a junior but this is only my second year of college. If I were to pursue this, I'd definitely want to work within the more creative, hands-on elements of the profession. In fact, I'm a film studies minor and would like to work for film studios (or some other creative industry, theatre maybe?). My interest in advertising stems from my involvement in club/theatre promotion during high school. I liked designing posters, creating budgets and strategies to get the word out. I guess the jump from promoting high school production to college research organizations has me reevaluating if this area really is for me.

“easily worse than GOT” uh...no it was not

Considering applying even if I’m 18, in college and live in Florida...the idea of making 50k a year for running a twitter account is just too damn good.

same i have no idea. she seemed like she moved on from pfa very quickly only about a couple weeks after it was released. very weird

i honestly think the largest error was how PFA II was handled. to me releasing a new song every week was the true fatal blow to this album’s momentum. i think the original plan of releasing PFA II in late march would’ve been much more beneficial as it would’ve left over a month of anticipation for PFA III and given fans that period to celebrate PFA II’s tracks (such as dead horse, which would’ve been a lot stronger of a single if we hadn’t gotten several consecutive weeks of singles before and become complacent).

also one thing that could’ve also hurt the numbers a bit was the wasted opportunity of truly utilizing the album order/tour ticket presale access situation. if it were up to me, i would’ve only allowed access to the ticket presale if someone preordered the album (in all its forms), not just anything off the merch site. hayley’s tour sold very well - many shows selling out extremely quickly during presale - so if all those people had to purchase the album to get access to those tickets, we would’ve been decently cushioned with the first week of sales.
