The Creative’s guide to getting paid with Siki Msuseni and Richard Bolland
💸💰 It’s fair to say that many creative folks would choose to make art or perform – maybe even sit in a dentist’s chair! – rather than do admin, taxes or invoicing. But knowing what to look out for when it comes to contracts, your rights, and your finances is essential if you’re going to make this a career. To find out more from those with professional experience to offer, we’ve invited animation and game director Richard Bolland and PR entrepreneur Siki Msuseni to share their strategies and advice. They answer the burning question: How can you make sure you get paid, and paid fairly, at the end of the day? Tune in to this episode of Creative Allies to find out.
