Even with this system, finding and reserving talent can be a “challenge.” The hold system is a constantly moving puzzle that must be delicately managed by both studios and talent. Today Austin and Erin are delving into the basic tenets of the hold system and giving you the inside scoop on how you as a freelancer are able and encouraged to work within this tenuous network.

In today's episode, I have the pleasure of inviting Dot Lung. Dot is short for Dorothy, and Lung is a dragon in Mandarin. She was born and raised in Southern California by Taiwanese immigrants. Dot wants to help designers and creative people leverage social media to grow their careers. After being sick and tired of life in corporate America, she immigrated from Los Angeles to Barcelona when she was 25 to follow her dream of living abroad and became the "Mother of Social Media Dragons." Then she created the six elements of the DRAGON Formula to make compelling content that has helped her end up working with clients (Facebook, Wix, Motionographer, OFFF, Digital Design Days, and Sonar+D)! She has helped develop digital marketing strategies for clients such as OFFF Festival, Teachable, Wix, Sonar, and Facebook. She has even led and collaborated on digital strategy for Hard Rock Cafe. On top of working with these brands, she is passionate about empowering creatives and personal brands to create successful social media strategies for their businesses. She has got 78,000 students enrolled in her online courses. There's a reason why her proven method generates such high brand awareness, builds such meaningful relationships with audiences, and is used to create a social strategy for some of the world's most recognizable companies.

There are moments in life when we find ourselves going through situations that we never imagined. It is there, where comes the moment to reflect, decide, and act. If you find yourself going through a difficult time, start by asking yourself what happiness is for you. From that, you can get down to work and start doing things that make you feel fulfilled, and that in turn lead to success. Keep in mind that happiness and success mean different things for each person, it is up to you to have those concepts very clear and strongly established. As we take action, we must fill ourselves with confidence. Everyone has a gift and it is their duty to share it with the world. The more confident you are of what you do, the more valuable you will be able to create opportunities for both yourself and those around you. Acting without fear is complex. We are human, and fear is felt naturally within us when we do not know or are not sure what is going to happen, how, or where we are going to be tomorrow. Reprogram yourself and do things that scare you, that's how the character is forged. Don't be afraid to be and show yourself as you really are. The time to take action is now, keep in mind that stars are born from moments of chaos. These are the tips Dot Lung gave us in this episode of the Resilient Minds Podcast. Dot Lung, ¨The Mother of Social Dragons¨ empowers young creatives, artists, and designers to take over the world and create a living with social media. She has worked on Instagram launches and strategies for clients like Facebook, Wix, Motionographer, Digital Design Days, FITC, OFFF, Ladies Wine and Design Barcelona, Sonar+D, and OCB. If you want to know more about how to get ahead in times of crisis and be truly happy, stay until the end of this podcast and remember: Everybody has a gift and is their duty to share it with the world - Dot Lung In this episode we explore: •How to make consciously decisions •How to reprogram ourselves •How to share your gift to the world •How to show yourself as you you truly are Connect with Dot Lung: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dotlung/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dotlung/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/DotLung Website: http://www.dotlung.com/ Hit me up on social media and say hi!

Do you ever feel that you have too much client work to focus on personal projects? It can be tough making the time for something that doesn’t bring you any direct income. However, these personal projects are an important part of your craft. They’ll help you sharpen your skills while imparting a sense of satisfaction that other work doesn’t. About Qais Sarhan Qais Sarhan is a 2D motion designer based in Reading. He creates simple, succinct animations in order to promote and explain complex marketing messages. When not creating for studios and agencies, Qais creates silly gifs about cats and food. The Rewards and Challenges of Remote Work As someone who works on all aspects of a project, Qais is able to work remotely. In this capacity, he seldom needs to come in-house and has the freedom to live outside of the major hubs. Even though you might not be physically in the room with clients, Qais urges you to stay in frequent communication.  Regular emails, calls, and messages will put them at ease and let them know that their project is in good hands. Leveling Up with Personal Projects When not working for clients, Qais is constantly refining his own skills. Personal projects are a great avenue for this. By investing in yourself, not only will your craft improve, but you will also gain a sense of satisfaction that only comes creating for your own development. It will also help you avoid being too harsh on yourself so you can focus on the joy in what you do. Quotes “Every few months I’ll sit back and think, what’s one area in my skillset that I really want to develop and work on and how can I make that happen in my spare time.” [8:21]   “Don’t stress about the idea of the personal project so much. You need to enjoy the process. You need to develop your skills.” [12:31] “You are a business and you’re promoting yourself as a business. If you are following any other kind of business, you don’t need to see personal posts from the employees. You just need to give people what they want.” [30:03] “Don’t obsess with being the best because that’s exhausting.” [33:12] In This Episode How remote work creates geographic freedom as a motion designer [2:09] Tips for communicating with clients remotely [4:45] Harnessing personal projects to improve your skills [6:48] Avoiding the pressure of perfectionism [15:30] Using Linkedin and other social media to share your work [20:20] How treating yourself as a business can still highlight your personal identity [30:28] Key Takeaways Being able to work remotely opens many doors. It allows you to live and work wherever you want and take on clients outside your geographical area. However, you still need to be in regular communication with clients. Keep them updated as much as possible on whatever platform they prefer.   Personal projects are a necessary part of being in a creative line of work. They’ll help take your skills and abilities to the next level and keep you passionate about your craft. It’s often difficult balancing these projects with client work. Since they’re your own creations, you can break them down into manageable pieces that still leave room for your other work.

Starting a motion design career is hard and leaves you with a lot of questions. There are so many hurdles that new artists stumble into; it can feel like there is no clear path forward. Joe Donaldson joins us on the podcast and breaks down how he balances work and life, all while riding a wave of continual success.

In this episode we chat with motion designer and creative director Kennon Fleisher. We chat about the pros/cons of full-time vs freelance, and what makes people stay long-term at certain companies. We also talk about how a prestigious role and title might not be as appealing as we would think. We might find ourselves climbing the wrong mountain, and need to change our path in order to align with our career goals.    LINKS Kennon's Website: https://www.kennonfleisher.com/ Kennon's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kennonfleisher/ Kennon's Behance: https://www.behance.net/kennonfleisher Joey Korenman's "Too Old for MoGraph" Article on Motionographer: http://motionographer.com/2017/02/15/too-old-for-mograph/ Greyscalegorilla Podcast "Too Old for Mograph" Discussion: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-46-are-you-too-old-to-do-3d/id433976980?i=1000380127957 * Want to share your story?

Do you ever find yourself so busy with work for clients that you never create or do something just for your own enjoyment or personal fulfillment? It’s a tricky balance to have a career that pays the bills but that still leaves you time and energy to do what fulfills you as a person and a creator. Joe Donaldson knows this struggle as well as anyone. In addition to being the founder of Holdframe, editor of Motionographer, and an instructor at the Ringling College of Art and Design, he’s a father of two and avid runner. Joe’s ten years working in motion design have taught him countless lessons on finding that right balance between work and healthy living that so many of us struggle with. In today’s interview, we discuss building a healthy work-life balance that starts with your education. From there it’s all about navigating the outside pressures and demands that take up our time and energy. Through his own successes and setbacks, Joe has learned a lot about this and shares his wisdom in this episode. What has been your biggest struggle with maintaining a healthy work-life balance? Share it with us in the comments! In this episode: The outside influences that pressure us to be workaholics The experience of motion design students today and how it prepares them to enter the workforce How motion designers can learn from each other’s work and benefit from that exchange Finding the sweet spot between working for money and working for art’s sake How your priorities will change throughout your life and career Setting boundaries and regularly checking in with yourself so that you only take the right jobs Why it might be a good idea to go for a run!   Quotes:   “I think there is a pressure that is imposed on us from the industry at large to keep going and stay in fifth gear and that becomes difficult.” [4:09] “It’s always about that balance. You don’t want to be too artsy without marketable skills and you don’t want to be too industry and have everything just look like an advertisement or a logo. It’s about finding that balance.” [13:29] “You have to look at is the effort as working in the direction that you want to go, or is it working in the direction that inversely favors somebody else over yourself.” [43:24] “I have a constant dialogue of assessing why am I doing this and is it right for me. As long as you have that dialogue with yourself there might be times when you’re working too much, but if it’s for the right reason or it’s a stepping-stone to a goal you have, then, by all means, keep doing it.” [46:36]     Links The Freelance Contract Bundle Is LIVE!

Carlos El Asmar of Motionographer.com tells all about the exciting Pop Up F5 live experience happening at this year's PromaxBDA Conference in New York City on Tuesday, June 12.

“I think it’s time to bring the community together in a space; so they can meet each other, and interact, and party, and get inspired.” - Carlos El Asmar In this 44th episode of the RevThinking podcast, Joel Pilger talks with Carlos El Asmar the Executive Creative Director of NBCUniversal and the unseen mastermind behind Motionographer and the F5 conference. Carlos is someone you probably haven’t heard of – although once you find out who he is you will probably find that strange. Carlos is one of the founders of Motionographer and the F5 conference. The fact that you haven’t heard of him has been very much by intention. He has stayed behind the scenes - in the shadows – but is now coming out into the spotlight. He was kind enough to sit down with Joel to have a conversation not only about Motionographer and F5, but also about Popup F5. A miniature F5 conference happening inside the Promax BDA Conference.
