“We’re in a golden age of creativity. With fields cross-pollinating and blurring—it’s hard to be just one type of creative in a single medium. Many creatives, like Joy and I, are ‘slashes’ (i.e., illustrator/designer, photographer/director/stylist)—so we wanted to create a book that encompasses different kinds of creative freelancing. There is a lot of overlap across fields as well as differences you can learn from and apply to your own practice. In fact, the most interesting freelance practices I learned were from photographers.”
