Getting Work With Us:


• Be able to prove to us, with storyboard samples, that you can not only draw, but that you understand visual storytelling, directing, proper camera terms, proper use of arrows, proper scene, shot and panel numbering, screen direction and shot motivation.
  
  
• Be willing to board a few sample scenes before you are sent to work with clients. We have to know, first hand, you are capable enough to uphold our high standards.
  
  
• Know how to work with directors. Extensive experience or tests with Mark Simon will determine whether you are capable enough.
  
  
• Be able to quickly sketch realistic people. Most of our clients are live action and do not want a cartoony look to their boards.

Working With Us:


• Be reachable at all times. Clients call our studios at all times and on weekends and they want an immediate answer.
  
  
• Answer pages and return phone calls immediately. We run like all productions run, we start by calling our first choice and move down the list. The first one to answer our call and is available gets the job. We never have the luxury of waiting around for freelancers to call us back.
  
  
• Be willing to take a job at a moments notice. 90% of our work starts a few hours after a client calls.
  
  
• Be willing to work nights, weekends and holidays when called on. Production keeps odd hours and we have to accommodate.
  
  
• Have a professional phone manner. Much of our work is done over phone and fax. Each of our artists represent us and must deal with our clients with courtesy and the professional manner our clients are accustomed.
  
  
• Provide to us storyboard samples to show our clients. If you do not have sufficient samples, you are either not ready or need to make them.
  
  
• Deliver boards on time, every time. There are no excuses.
  
  
• Be able to complete at least 30 finished black and white panels per day.
  
  
• Be willing to make good money.

Local Artists (predominantly hired):


• Be within 1.5 hours, driving time, from our Orlando studio.

Long Distance Artists:
