I know where you are coming from but these guys are just out doing a job and are of the artistic bent. The main team back in the production house are the ones that know for sure whereas these guys are more handed jobs to go and do and just go and do it. I guess you could ask how busy it is but it fluctuates and if they are freelancing on the side then it's hard to gauge. They also aren't across all states and divisions of the business so i doubt they would have a clue to be honest and would only regurgitate what is getting told to them from a higher level.
