In 2011, we made a decision to dedicate our lives to helping creative talent achieve their goals.
Whether that meant making money or artistic achievement, we would provide the jobs, guidance, services and support needed so those in need would thrive and succeed.
Matt Dowling and Nina Malone created Shooting Beauty (a production company) & The Freelancer Club based on their own journey.
Both freelancers of over 10 years, they met while lecturing on The State of Freelancing in 2008. Throughout the early stages of their careers, they made many mistakes due to a lack of business sense and naivety. They were also shocked at the statistics about the number of freelancers who do not make it and so they decided to do something about it.
“80% of Freelancers fail
within the first 18 months.”
Life's too short.
