…or at least a dream job for now? I mean, if I had to work for someone else and all things being equal (money, support, success, how much I liked working there) what kind of work would I like to do? I think it would be working as a multimedia developer and Flash designer for an educational media company. Think Scholastic or Encyclopedia Britannica’s online stuff for kids or brainpop.com. Problem is, the market it obviously very tight and I have very little in my portfolio that would help me get the job.

I need to add some animation and illustration work to the portfolio. Also, I think it would be a good idea to start a database of all the companies “out there.” I am limited as to where I can apply because Mark needs to be in either Houston, NYC or Chicago for his job.

Since I don’t have a degree, it probably wouldn’t hurt to get an ACE certification in either Flash or Photoshop. That’s a big one, because I’ve always sucked at standardized tests.
