Also trying to get into freelancing (or otherwise) as an XSI artist is
hard because everyone wants to get their hands on someone with 5-10 year
experience.=20
But there aren't enough big steady XSI shops where to grow that kind of
talent.=20
But that's just the feeling I get which could be totally misconstrued.=20

We really need to get some more experienced and talented XSI artists,
especially here in NYC. I normally might not bring attention to it
since being an XSI artist in NYC means guaranteed work and I like being
in demand but it seems there's been a huge demand for XSI talent here in
the city and elsewhere. I'm not trying to toot my horn but I've turned
down at least 6 or 8 offers for work in the past week...no lie. I'm
handling more than one job often and way too booked to consider anything
else for at least another month or two. What little XSI freelancers I
do know, are all booked or have moved on to full-time positions here or
in other parts of the country. Now I don't want the opposite to happen
either where there are too many artists but I'm starting to wonder if
this shortage can be more damaging. If nobody can ever find an xsi
artist, nobody will use xsi anymore. So...if you're looking for a life
change, know XSI and can hit the ground running.....come to NYC and
HELP!=20
