Re: response

I know TONS of people in this industry, and even at the biggest film studios in the world. Does that mean that I can get you a job? Not always. Not often. In fact, my niece wanted a job and I couldn't get her one. The best I could do was get a door opened to her. After that, it was up to her. She got through the door. She never got to go through it twice.

If any school could get their students guaranteed jobs, they'd put it in writing and every seat in the school would be full year round. I do not personally know of any schools willing to do that, though some will always dangle the carrot of a job because they "know people."

Socrates said it: Know thyself.

That's what produces the results in the end.

I am not trying to be mean, I am simply trying to make you understand that nobody is going to make this happen for you but you.

And with out-sourcing, endless numbers of people all trying to do the same thing, etc., etc., you have to be committed -- or as most of us here joke, we should have been committed long ago.

Best regards,

Ron Lindeboom

Creativity is a type of learning process where the teacher and pupil are located in the same individual.

Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.
- Antoine de Saint Exupéry
