What do I have to offer? Hmmmm... great question....,
Well, I guess I have been helping to shape the public face of Internet porn for 10 years now. Have designed multitudes of sites of just about every flavor & niche you can think of. Not all, but many.
Over the years, I've been a raving lunatic assmonkey on this board, (and many others), but have never actually advertised much at all. I am completely 100% self-taught. There's no school for "How To Make Bad Ass Porn Site Front Graphics". But I did go to school for advertising, and have (I think) a great eye/ear for both audio & visual composition, and that helps.
Mostly my clients have always been longer term corporate contracts for ongoing work and exclusivity, and so I don't very often post up links or a portfolio or anything. I figure, if I'm not soliciting for work, I shouldn't offer a folio (or signature or avatar) which ultimately will only waste people's time on needless inquiries.
I don't participate in "design contests" or seek industry awards. I don't do radio shows or go to industry conventions. I'm here in this biz these days strictly to do business, and I don't personally see any business value (for myself) to any of those things.
I currently operate my studio, Broken Zombie Media, Inc. out of the San Francisco Bay Area. (no, there's no public website either).
So, I guess I have to offer:
Graphic Design (everything from road signs to t-shirts, logos, biz cards, posters, websites, etc.)
Flash Design
Video Editing
Audio Design
Movie Trailer Storyboarding, Editing, & Scoring
Porn Tour Design
Affiliate Site Design
Creatives Design (galleries, banners, mailers, etc.)
Private & Secure Client Extranet Project Network
Graphic Design Consulting
So, there ya go. That's what I do.
Great thread.
