One of the biggest differences I notice, in adult, would be the price... or more so, who pitches it.

Every Mainstream design, art job I have worked, I was sent an E-mail with an outline of the work requested, a price for the job and a deadline to respond with "I can do what you need" or "I'm sorry but I cannot take on a new job at this time."

However, in adult, only a handful pitch a project with a budget. Most just seem to be "shopping" around and looking for a lowball offer.

Any reason for this?
