A freelancer has just set up a new Reddit page, for other freelancers to gather and chat/have a moan/put the TV world to rights:

The idea of the community is to provide a safe space for freelancers to anonymously share stories during this unprecedented time, discuss rates more openly, working conditions, and most importantly not be worried about an employer identifying them (as sometimes is the case on FB).

It is very easy to create an account and comment anonymously.

The idea of the community page is to create a respectful environment that ultimately allows for greater transparency across the industry for freelancers, and allow them to find support in what is a very challenging climate right now.

Please join in with the discussion here:

The community has only just been created, so I have been asked to spread the word. They need your help to get the ball rolling.

The more comments posted, questions asked and general interaction to the community page, the more other freelancers will join.

The goal is for the hush hush nature of the industry to become far more transparent and an easier place for freelancers, both old and new, to navigate. Please be part of the movement!

Anyone can read it but you’ll need to sign up on Reddit (pseudonyms are allowed) to pots. Seems like a good resource - over to you!
