What struck me the most is how much driving this job requires and how much freedom comes with it as well. The first day it we began meeting at a coffee shop in San Marcos, then ended up driving to La Jolla for a meeting with a loan company, then meeting someone on craigslist to purchase equipment for a video shoot coming up. We also discussed the videos I was going to be editing the first week of the internship.
Being a freelancer job we didn't have any colleagues, although the people we met for meetings were very in-engaged at the beginning of these meetings, although my mentor taught me his strategies to engage the client into the conversation to get out of them what they want their final product to be. It was fascinating how some of the jobs can be manipulating the client into showing them their options and having them become more engaged in the process. What struck me most about the job I was doing was how impacting a few meetings can be In one day. We only did around three meetings for different planning events and that took around 6 to 8 hours just those few events, it makes me realize planning is extremely important being a freelancer. I am looking forward to shooting video for clients and learning different shortcuts to problems in the environment. I am also excited to get plenty of work to put on my portfolio and resume at the end of the month, considering the amount of editing I'm doing. I am wondering what the average workload is over the weeks and what the average payment at the end of the month is according to the jobs you’re responsible for every month. The yearly average is around 70000 to 100,000 depends on experience and publicity. So I wonder how accurate that is a discussion ill have with my mentor.
