Hey everyone, I’m a fresh grad doing multimedia animation freelance. I just landed my first real client: a media company working on a campaign for a BIG company. I quoted $120/second of finished animation.

Is that a reasonable rate for a brand level project, or did I leave money on the table? Would love to know what you guys typically charge for commercial work at my experience level.

I feel lots of anxiety abt this considering I did already quote them 🫣

I saw someone on here ask this once, but the answer still seemed pretty ambiguous. So, do you get notified when someone adds your playlist?

Old friend of mine has a fire playlist. Don’t wanna seem like a weirdo for stalking her (even though I totally was) LEMME KNOW! thanks x

I (22F) recently reached out to my ex boyfriend, who I dated during my senior year of high school. We ended things on good terms and stayed friends for a while afterward, but eventually just fizzled out around my sophomore year of college.

A few days ago, I texted him just to see how he’s been doing. He was an important person in my life and even though it’s been years, I’ve always genuinely cared about him and hoped he was doing well. I’m also moving soon, and I think part of me wanted to reconnect with people who were meaningful during that chapter of my life.

The problem is that he never responded…. After five days, I sent a a silly follow up message… and still nothing.

I’ll admit this has hurt more than I expected. I wasn’t reaching out with any hidden agenda or trying to get back together. It’s been years. I was honestly just hoping to catch up. Being completely ignored has left me feeling surprisingly sad and definitely a little embarrassed.
I don’t know if I’m upset because I miss having him in my life in some capacity or if this is just my ego taking a hit from being ignored.

How did you interpret the silence?
