I just joined and wanted to say hello to everyone out there. I am extremely excited to begin building my portfolio(as it is complete crap at the moment) and to meet and work with as many of you as humanely possible. Anyone who lives in my area (LA-OC) or even other places, don't be afraid to say hello!

Welcome to the Mayhem hienvy

Three good ways to network are:

Post an availability notice letting people know that you are available (under the casting/travel tab). This is for when you want to charge money. You can offer trade as well.

Search for Casting Calls in your area based on criteria you select. Post a Casting Call letting people know about an idea you have and want to put into a work of art. This is for when you are willing to pay other people. You can offer trade as well.

Browse for photographers in your area and leave comments on images you like, send a friend request or message. Start a list of photographer's photos that you think are top notch for photographers in your area. This can become something of a Rolodex. Make sure that you select the Advanced Options and select an appropriate Logged in within:. I typically use 30 days, but you may want people who respond faster. Otherwise you will get photographers who haven't logged in in over a year. There are a lot of inactive accounts.

Good luck in your search!
