This whole "not working right now" thing is for the birds. With that said, it turns out me and a solid number of my fellow birds aren't working and haven't been these last few months. Thankfully I've got a couple scheduled shoots the next few weeks, but dang...glad I've got residual money coming in with stock footage licensing.
Even being able to say "haven't been working these last few months" is kinda wild. Uncertainty is no doubt part of freelancing and it's still science fiction for me to imagine working a 9-5 five days a week.
With all this downtime I'm still digging through this rubber stamp documentary project I've been working on. It's still just a collection of notes, books, and websites at this point. Surely I'll post more about it along the way. No question I'm more a collector than consumer or creator, but I did jump in and started carving my own rubber stamps.
My kiddos are the illustrators of the family so I've been hijacking their drawings and turning them into stamps. Again, SUPER stoked about ending up behind the business end of a camera again soon enough. There's plenty of real art kids and I'm collecting links to my favorites along the way. Here's some recent favorites if you're up to check them out:
