This week on Project Freelance I am chatting with Digital Nomad, Rob Palmer, a freelance journalist who has been traveling abroad for the vast majority of his life. I wanted to chat with Rob about how he makes his money while moving around the world, what journalism is like in other countries, like China and Thailand, and how journalism has changed since the inception of social media. Rob runs a site called GoFreelance.com and if you need any tips about how to become a better journalist or how you too can travel while making a living, I highly recommend that you take some time to reach out to and speak with Rob.  Get Socialistic with Rob:  http://gofreelance.com http://twitter.com/gofreelancenow Tweet my video to @NASA: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrhBrNhw4oQ Get Socialistic with me: Photo prints: http://justtheletterk.com/prints Support the Patreon: http://patreon.com/justtheletterk PUBLIC FACEBOOK GROUP:  http://festyy.com/wCEjcJ http://Youtube.com/JustTheLetterK http://Twitter.com/pro

People often ask me about my college experience and if they, themselves, should go to college/university or if they should just start working straight out of high school. Here is a bit about my college experience and what I think you could get out of furthering your studies vs. investing that college money into starting a business.

DO NOT FALL FOR THIS SCAM! There are a ton of scammers out there that are after your hard earned money. They pose as companies, media companies, etc., convince you to cash a check they send, which is fraudulent, and pay a fake third party via cash deposit, and when the check bounces, you lose your money and it is very hard to recover.  Photo prints: http://justtheletterk.com/prints Get Socialistic with me: Support the Patreon: http://patreon.com/justtheletterk PUBLIC FACEBOOK GROUP:  http://festyy.com/wCEjcJ http://Youtube.com/JustTheLetterK http://Twitter.com/kenagonio  http://Instagram.com/kenagonio | http://instagram.com/no.tracers My Music: http://Chasingsatellitesmusic.bandcamp.com These are a few of my favorite things:  For Photo/Film: Deals on Adobe Products: http://festyy.com/wCEhV1 Sign up for Solidgigs: http://solidgigs.com/projectfreelance Purchase My Stock Photography: https://stock.adobe.com/contributor/207466518/NoTracers Listen on itunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/po

This past week was extremely slow for me and I am sick of making excuses for it. I wanted to hop onto the podcast and be real with you guys about my anxieties of freelancing, talk about silly freelancing mistakes I've made, and remind you that the moments we want to capture, the opportunities we come across, are all fleeting. If you have the opportunity to give someone a business card or if you're trapped in an elevator for a thirty floor ride with someone, take the opportunity to say something. If you see something you think is beautiful or magical, or shocking, capture it. There may not be a "next time" to take it.  If you have a topic for the podcast, or want to sponsor an episode, hit me with it at contact@justtheletterk.com Follow @KraigAdams on Twitter to get to know or next guest!  Follow @Wheresbryce on Twitter and IG for more of Bryce's work Photo prints: http://justtheletterk.com/prints Get Socialistic with me: PUBLIC FACEBOOK GROUP:  http://festyy.com/wCEjcJ http://Youtube.com/Jus

Last week we spoke with the creators of Barn Burner, a documentary about the life and rise of the Lancaster metal scene, and this week we have Lancastrian, Jeremy Weiss on the podcast to talk about his music convention, Launch Music Conference.

Capture Life As it Happens Preorder Barn Burner: barnburnermovie.com I met Eli Passage at Launch Music Conference last spring and watched the premiere of his film Barn Burner, which tells the story of the life, community, and music scene of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. He teamed up with long time friend and filmmaker, Tyler Horst, on a three year journey to create a feature length documentary. Eli has had a passion for music since he started going to shows. The local Lancaster scene helped pull him out of his depression and sparked this idea to share the story of how music has impacted Lancaster and the people there. Tyler had been playing with cameras since childhood, but through high school and college it became more of a part of his life and he fell into documentary film work in college, thanks to a student journalism class. Barn Burner is their first film. Get socialistic: http://instagram.com/ebp2615 http://instagram.com/tylerhorstmedia Get Socialistic with me: Youtube.com/JustTheLetterK http://Twitt

Sobriety is the theme of this week's podcast. It can be difficult to avoid the "drugs" part of "sex, drugs, and rock and roll," and I wanted to chat with someone who has watched someone in this scene escape the drugs and fight for their sobriety and their life. Eric Flores manages merchandise for the band Slaves, who is fronted by Jonny Craig, one of the most talented vocalists of our time, in my opinion, and Jonny has a past riddled with demons and stories. Over the past few years, Jonny has made an incredible change in his life, and his crew has been there along the ride with him, through the good, the bad, and the in between. Here's a little insight into getting sober on tour. Hope this helps someone out there.

This week on Project Freelance I got to sit down with my best bud, Justin Conant (@JCPICS3) to talk about selling merch for bands on tour, photography on tour, and why Justin decided to step away from touring to focus on building a home life. We also talk about the importance of NOT STEALING FROM YOUR EMPLOYER! There are a lot of incredible people out there, but there are also plenty of snakes in the grass, that will do anything to get a leg up, an extra buck, or some notoriety. Don't be a dick, just do your job. We also go into the idea of "fan entitlement," which is the phenomenon of fans assuming that because they bought a ticket to see a band perform, that they should get one on one time with the band, dinner, a show, their left kidney, and a lock of hair. It's crazy, and ridiculous. Do you know how much time your favorite band that's coming to town gets to see the city? MAYBE an hour. MAYBE. Press, management, last minute errands, and searching for a quiet bathroom to poop in take up every other second o
