    Default First Job Ever

    Say Hey, Just Started And Just Got My First "job" Making Posters For A Large Venue Here In Milwaukee. They Are Saying That It's Not A Paying Job, But It Would Get My Name Out There. I Know That This Happens To Real Artists All The Time (not Saying Poster Makers Aren't Real Artists, Just Me), Just Want To Know If This Is Standard And Looking For Any Kind Of Suggestions On The Business End Of Posters - Don't Really Want To Get Into The Business Aspect Of Something I Love But Don't Want To Get Fucked In The Ass Either.

    milwaukee is such a rebel - the first letter capitals...that happens automatically when you type in all caps for some reason.
    the bands are...
    no use for a name
    the starting line

    How many do they want for free?
    Or are you just designing?
    Ask if you can sell them at the show.

    "It Would Get My Name Out "

    Tell them to go fuxx themselves just based on that. I do a lot of stuff for free but I won't work for anyone that says that. Maybe its just a pet peeve of mine but They're asking you to do work for free and then they make it sound like that you're doing yourself a favor on top of it.
