| 2009-08-07 | Kara | 10 | 8 | 10 | 10 | No | Sean, I decided to get some brochures from American Portfolio schools like Creative Circus and Brainco. But I haven't ruled out going overseas. I really really want to and I think the experience of working with other countries (especially in our "global" economy) will help me in the long run. Besides I think the reason I didn't do so well for so long is because I was sick of where I am at (geographically). Lots to think about, but you made a very good point. I never thought of it that way. Thank you, Kara Nuckles |

| 2008-03-20 | lagirlinatl | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thank you Sean for your advice. Enhancing my portfolio is exactly the direction I was thinking but was not clear. I would, however, like to eventually advance into a more director/management role down the line, as I advance in my career. |

| 2007-12-22 | Zoe | 10 | 8 | 9 | 10 | Yes | This is really valuable advice and I will take it to heart. I guess the problem is, I can't draw and don't have the time or money to hire an art director (you said to seem eager, but not desperate, but I AM desperate. I'm running out of money/time). I wrote the TV scripts in a dual-column format and hopefully that'll suffice to get the ideas across. I'll work on getting some kind of stock photos to work with to design Out of Home and DM and hope for the best. I am stuck in chicken & egg land. Thanks again, I sincerely appreciate your help. Zoe |
