Starting up on your own as a freelance Motion Graphics
Designer or setting up a small studio from home or an office can be a
unnerving, frightening, fun, exciting, daunting, but very satisfying step
forward in your career. You'll need to be able to deal with everything by
yourself, there will be no backup staff, and you will need to find the right
balance between the producer and administrator role and the creative side. You
may well find that your feelings change from the initial pleasure of working
from home, to the difficulty that clients bring when you have to deal with them
by yourself. http://www.jasonthomasjames.com/
However, there are a few more important aspects you should
consider before starting your freelance business which you will find below.
Many people think that they need to borrow a large sum of
money from the bank or another sponsor to start-up their fledgling business,
but this is not necessary. Any viable business should start with as little debt
as possible and grow when the time is right. Don't go out and buy everything
you think you need straight away, buy hardware, software and office supplies as
and when you need them, and budget for them in a job to make the costs easier
on yourself. Start with the basics, a PC or MAC, a good quality monitor, a
comfortable desk and chair, and the software you need to create your work. You
probably already have these if you are considering going freelance, so maybe
just get a couple of other essentials like a decent photo printer/scanner and
perhaps a DSLR camera or video camera. Consider starting a new business or
current account at your bank to keep your business finances separate to your
own money, and to make the paperwork easier when it comes to the accounting. http://www.jasonthomasjames.com/
Getting your freelance business set up can be a fairly
painless process if you know what you're doing - so read on and see what else
you should consider.

Why Video in first place?
The answer seems obvious: we live in a video world.
Everybody watches tv, and YouTube along with all its clones bought video to the
web with an earth shattering success. As always, however, there are some less
obvious reasons why web video is so important.
1. Video allows showing rather than explaining Sounds too obvious? It isn't. A video tutorial
or a video eLearning session can quickly convey the point and show exactly the
steps that have to be accomplished in order to get the expected result. Compare
this with the last time you tried to build an Ikea furniture. Despite the
excellent instructions, chances are the 'M' screw did not fit exactly in the
'K' socket. You had to find out by yourself that it had to be inserted from the
rear side, or something like that. This would not happen with a video, as you
see what happens in real time.
2. Video can persuade a wider audience (Freelance Motion Designer )
Let's face it: when you communicate you are also trying to
persuade. Of course traffic informations or stock fluctuations are just that:
informations. But as you begin writing a blog post, or simple new year's
greetings card your goal is to send a message and an efficient one. Now, video
is easier as it works on so many levels with respect to the spoken, or written,
word. You can leverage music, after effects motion graphics, or even the always
popular handsome guy or gal that presents the video. The connection in video
just happens quicker and there's less room for misunderstanding the message.
3. Video has an high perceived value -Freelance Motion Designer
For centuries anybody could be a poet. All that was needed
were basic language skills and some free time. That's why so many people write
poems, and bore their friends to death by reading and re-reading their works of
art. There are way less novels because writing a novel requires so much more
time. On the web, where five hundred words are a long essay, everybody can
publish tons of content. Does this mean this content is worth reading? Probably
not, just as the many poems written by casual poets are, to put this bluntly,
pure junk.
