>>2267360Yes perspective is really important.
I only do freelance jobs. It's harder especially in the beginning because you don't have regular clients and the taxes are way higher at least where i'm from. I have a hard time being social or an team-player so the trade off fits my personality more. But it's more stressful because i never know if i'll have work next month or not.
I really can't talk for everyone. But getting work at first seems really arbitrary at first. I had a electrician come by my apartment to fix something. I talked to him and he asked what i do. So i showed him my work. a few month later i get an email from some company that wants to do a small brochure and an employee at that company had recommend me when they asked if someone knew someone who can draw. they then recommended me later on to some other company because they liked what i've done.
Of course these aren't the jobs I dream of and quite frankly. I don't like doing them. But in the mean time you can get buy and slowly build up a portfolio that gets you the jobs you want.
All i really want to say is that most people are happy with way less then you would think.
As for fdz. I know someone who went and honestly he didn't like it at all. At the mid term he was really considering if he should quit or continue. I didn't speak with him since. But from what i understand. He only saw feng zhu rarely.
The teacher basically come in. Do a quick demo. then tell you to do x times the same exercice for tomorrow, then leave. You get quickly grouped into classes that are skilled or unskilled. The one with skills gets the most attention and the other class is slowly pushed to quit so that only the good guys graduate.
Of course he was angry and you can't take it at face value.But that's what he told me.
Then again, from my understanding. There is not much you can do to get better except grind. So one year of fzd can only get you so far iven if you grind a lot. Getting good takes time.
