A Change…

I have decided to take freelancing seriously at last.  Up to this point, I have relied almost soley on referrals from gamers, and personal networking, which to be honest only gets one so far in a small town like Santa Fe, TX.  To that end I am extending my presence on the web, sharing my work, my thoughts, my insights with whomever chooses to look. 

I have also finally put up an all inclusive portfolio of my work at deviant art portfolios. This is a new service the company is providing for free, of course it also has upgrade options for a few.  That said, the free service is perfectly acceptable and highly professional.

I have also signed up on Elance, we shall see how that turns out.  It seems like a very professional freelance site, that creates work oppurtunities not only for those who have been there forever, but for the new user as well.   I am particularly impressed with the skills test feature, allowing providers to certify thier skills.   I will keep you up to date on my thoughts on thier service as I go. 

 

The first order of business, before I can begin to bid on anything of worth, is to pump up my sadly lacking portfolio.  While I may know I have the skills, my current portfolio does not reflect that as well as I’d like it to.  I have some projects coming up, that will help with that already, and I might just have to create some imaginary clients as well:).  Ideas anyone?
