Re: Need help...
by John Davidson on Feb 3, 2008 at 7:57:24 pm

For the record Bruce, there are no spec spots on my reel. When I was in college though, I made lots of "fake" spots for companies that didn't exist (e.g. "Uncle Chucky's Bar, Grill, and Petting Zoo" for example).

I agree, making spots for companies that you didn't actually get hired by is not the best way to sell yourself, but if you're 19 and just starting out at the very least it will teach you a little bit about how to get the job done. Perhaps we should make an addendum - go out and make commercials for FAKE companies from scratch - and have FUN doing it.

None of this is worth it if ya don't have a good time.

ps. Bruce, I live by those same three rules :-).
