@Gargron I want to network with people, share ideas, and grow as person/artist. Anything else feels pretty secondary, honestly. I'm finding it weird that when I'm looking for opportunities to gain experience, everyone seems to think I'm meaning money lol.

Inversely, if I don't ask for money for something like editing, it seems nobody wants to hire because they feel the work will be inferior. It's the 18 year with 10 years of work experience chicken/egg problem again 🤣
