Negotiating makes up one of the most essential skills in consulting. If you hone your negotiation skills, you may actually wind up with a more successful practice than someone who’s brilliant in their work. Consulting fee negotiation may be the most obvious (and financially rewarding) skill to pick up, but it’s far from the only thing you can negotiate.
As a consultant, you may be negotiating every time you talk to a client. Typical candidates include:
- project deadline changes
- scope creep
- credit terms
- revisions
- project details
- requests for information (from either side)
- responses to phone calls and email messages
- your availability (especially when you get calls from clients at night or on weekends and don’t want to talk)
Some of these points can be handled up front, through consulting contracts. The more you put in writing at the start, the less you’ll need to negotiate later. Of course, putting together a contract involves as lot of negotiation too. But there may be less pressure at that point.Just yesterday I installed PPro CC2020 on a secondary computer (my primary computer has other issues so I had to improvise). I proceeded to edit a video today, and I needed to replace a piece of the frame where a Powerpoint slide shown on a TV had been slow to advance. So I took a frame capture of a frame that showed the correct slide, placed it on an upper track, and added a 4-point mask to its Opacity effect. It defaulted to 10px feather and a small rectangle in the center of the frame, which I guess is normal. Then I then dragged each corner of the mask (blue line) to the edges of the TV and reduced the feather, but the resulting mask did not change! The screenshot below tells the story. The portion of the image that is actually opaque is not where the blue lines are, but the original feathered rectangle in the center of the frame - just the top right portion of the desired slide (more pinkish tan art) and less of the speaker's shoulder because he had shifted his weight.
I tried removing the rectangle mask and making a freeform bezier mask instead, but once I completed the shape, the opacity once again became that first rectangle from the 4-point mask! If I turn the Opacity off or remove any/all masks, the full frame reappears as it should. But I can't get the shape of any mask to be anything other than that original small feathered rectangle.
As a workaround, instead of using a mask in PPro I edited the image in Photoshop to make everything but the TV transparent, but that shouldn't be necessary. Has anyone else seen this behavior?

Sparta specializes in offering a Municipal Lease Purchase Financing (LPF) Program, which allows municipalities to efficiently purchase vital equipment, such as police cruisers, motorcycles, other emergency vehicles, and essential-use equipment, including maintenance or service contracts, without large, up-front cash payments, effectively giving them more purchasing power. Lease purchase financing allows installment lease payments, which can be paid monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually. As payments are made, the municipality — which maintains ownership of the equipment — builds equity in its investment.&gt;pictographically.

Sweet potatoes are a great alternative to regular potatoes when you are dieting and they are definitely a part of foods that help you lose weight. They will still fill you up and leave you feeling satisfied, but they contain fewer calories. Swapping the two is an easy way to reduce your caloric intake in a way that you will hardly notice. They are also very nutritious; they contain plenty of fiber as well as potassium, and vitamins A, C, and B6.
