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
