Yes, the freelance aspect is a fact of life that you need to keep in perspective when you work in this business. I belong to two unions, and that is a costly thing in itself but then a lot of folks in freelance work situations need to get their own coverage plans etc... So I keep my head above water by working on commercials and outside of film as well. The workweeks are longer on big pictures when you are on pre-production so if you work 4 or 5 months, it is worth the wait between jobs.
