This last week has been a funny old week, really. Few jobs on the go, doing some ads for a radio station down south. And I have a new client (or about to, rather) who gave me a rather nice surprise on Friday!

I’m due to record a voiceover for a video they’re producing. It’s fairly low budget, but I agreed anyway as the project sounded interesting. I suppose that’s the nice thing about what I do, I could easily have said no, but what’s the point? It’s money (which is naturally very useful!), plus it won’t take me long to do as it’s a short project, so nothing to lose. He’d emailed me a week ago with the budget they have to play with, around £70 – job’s a good’un.

We’d exchanged another couple of emails since then talking about the project, and he sends me another email on Friday to say that he should be able to squeeze some more budget out of the kitty, making it £100+! Now THAT’S the kind of client I love!! Having random emails come in saying that someone’s going to be paying you more than you originally thought! Fantastic end to the week!
