As the Cow approaches 1,000,000 visitors every month, it's also expanding beyond the web's best source for peer-to-peer support for storage, cameras, hardware, software, and information, to now also offer the web's most trafficked source for services, gigs and events.
FAME: ADVERTISE YOUR SERVICES
Now with over 900 listings, we're adding more of them every day, from all over the world, in fields including subtitling, photography, web development, voiceovers, and every aspect of film & video production from previz to post.
FORTUNE: GIGS (aka, The "J" WORD)
Yes, there are hundreds of listings for high-level positions in animation and film & video production -- HD shooters, particle animators... honestly, all of it -- with dozens more being added every week. Recent listings also include Flash and .NET developers, sales reps, multimedia technicians, and an Assistant Professor in Interactive Digital Media.
There's a section devoted to low-paying gigs and internships for folks who are just getting started and want to fill their resumes with real-world experience. And of course an area for you to tell the world that you're available for work.
(While we're at it, we should probably mention our Classifieds too.)
FUN: FESTIVALS, USER GROUPS AND MORE
No matter what you're interested in, and no matter where you are, you're going to find something truly fun: a cinematography workshop in Fireze (Florence) Italy, the Paso Robles Digital Film Festival ("In the heart of California's Wine Country"), where this year's theme is Music and Film, a 3D modeling workshop, an Avid User Group in Boston on the subject of digital asset management, and "Disaster Recovery Strategies for Broadcasters and Facilities" in Detroit.
Click the appropriate link to add your service listing, post your high-pay opportunities and low-pay/intership gigs and jobs wanted, and announce your events.
