I could cry.
DFX Composium. I lived on that beauty for seven years with Northwest VideoWorks in Portland, OR. They billed my ass at $350/hr. all through the 1990s.
In November of 1997 the owners saw the writing on the brick-and-mortar post house wall and threw in the towel. But, I was still booked solid with clients (I’m not joking) while the auctioneer house was putting lot labels on tape decks, monitors, speakers and the freakin’ back of my CHAIR as I sat working with a client.
That was what told me, “If ever there were a time to give it a shot on your own, here’s your sign.”
So I did. Thank you, DFX Composium.
