The best bit of advice I can give is don't think anything is below  
you. Many years of years of traditional experience can go a long way  
but the fact remains digital is a different industry where being pmp  
certified means less than proven agile development examples. Getting  
into digital is a good idea as it's a growth industry but be prepared  
for something akin to entry level job where you are being led by  
someone in his or her 30's. This might sound like a bad thing but it's  
not, chances are that 30 year old has been rocking out digital since  
he was 15.
