When life gives you lemons... go mash them in someone's eyes.mono_blancoApril 27 2007, 02:24:34 UTC
I for one, Josh, am tired of seeing people with genuine talent be cast aside by the success they deserve. Rather than try to make you feel better about anything, I'll finally send you that link I mentioned months ago; A link to something that may potentially result in monetary reward. It may just lead you to a lot of work and no benifit whatsoever, but if that's the case, par for the course, no?
Anyway, this link leads to a website called Spotrunner. They make custom advertising for companies to show on local cable networks.
They need large amounts of creative material to generate the quantity of advertising that they produce. They need graphics. They need commercials. And, even more importantly, they need music.
Royalties are paid out on a per usage schema, so if designers use recordings that you have made in their studio, you get a piece of the pie. If they don't then you recorded for nothing. The more music you have in their database, the more it will get used. Or not. It's a roll of the dice. Take it or leave it. Point being, their a national company, creating ad and selling time for those ads to companies large and small across the country. It's a potential medium to get your performances heard commercially in tons of ways that may rape your art form.

My dad works there. Call me if you want his name to drop. He's been bugging me to go do freelance stuff there for ages, but I'm too lazy.
Anyway, it's worth another try. You were going to get up tomorrow anyway, right?
