To keep a float you do small projects to pay the bills, these wont be seen as they are not as glamorous as the big low paid jobs which are more exciting.

Make contacts with visiting professionals, build bridges and get to know them. Everyones Human. Think outside the box when contacting studios and designers. Play on creatives egos. Be different, be surprising and make yourself stand out. Tell a story through different means and different medias. Take a placement, build experience working in a true creative environment, even if its just making cups of tea, stick to it and keep passionate. Keep emailing for jobs and to professionals even after rejection, keep striving towards the goal and leave a good lasting impression with them.
