Retouching in Los Angeles, CA.

[PTS]

Hi.

I'm moving to Los Angeles from the UK next month, and will be looking for photoshop retouching work. I wanted to seek advice from anyone who lives in LA and working within design / retouching, or knows someone who does. I've worked within mostly cosmetic retouching for years now, and would like to think I'm highly skilled with image manipulation and colour.

I'll probably be living within Hollywood, so one would guess there's plenty of opportunity for my field of work? As well as photographic, magazine, and print work, I've heard movie studios / production companies will hire a retoucher to work on images for graphics (such as movie posters)? Any advice / contact names would by greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Paul S.
