To Work For Free…or Not?

By

You know the drill. You have a creative skill other people don’t–say, graphic design, video editing, or copywriting. You do great work. You’re always looking for more exposure and pieces to add to your body of work. And on top of that, let’s not lie: you’re a very cool person.

People know you and like you–and don’t mind asking if they could hit you up for the occasional gig that doesn’t actually pay, but could offer a “great portfolio piece!” or the possibility of future work. Should you help out? Find out with this clever flowchart from typographer and illustrator (and future Playlister–stay tuned!) Jessica Hishe.
