STEPHEN HULLFISH -- Editing Today

(From The Yahoo Avid User's Group -- By Stephen Hullfish)

I'm pulling many of my clients from the big L.A. trailer houses. They charge quadruple what I charge and I'm making a very hefty day rate because my expenses are so low.

Everything is QUICKTIME approvals over the Internet, then FEDEX.

I don't have a single client within 600 miles of me.
My clients are in New York, Los Angeles, Nashville, Dallas, Austin and somewhere (I don't even know) in Mississipi or Arkansas.

I only deal with them via the Internet and FTP, so I don't care where they are (though their address is definitely in my QUICKBOOKS).
