In 2002, I setup a nonprofit organization for regional filmmakers. Over the years it has implemented and taken part in a number of different projects, programs, and productions. Ultimately, its mission has focused on enabling hobbyist filmmakers to transition from being weekend amateurs into becoming working professionals in the film industry.

A colleague was inquiring with a producer about a crew position on an upcoming film production and was taken aback by the response they received. The exchange went something like this: Colleague: I’m writing to inquire about crew positions on [Production Name]?  My resume is attached.  [Colleague’s Name] The Producer’s response: What ever happened to common courtesy when

Facebook makes it very easy to organize events and invite friends, colleagues and associates to them. However, it's all for nought if you don't make effective use of the features offered to you as well as bear in mind a few courtesies regardless of how you invite people to your activity.

A lot of people who are new to being self-employed often neglect a very important element to conducting business professionally: The contract. I won't deny that contracts can be intimidating but anyone who conducts themselves honestly and knows how to read, has nothing to fear from a contract. That document exists to protect the interests of both parties involved and the only people who "get
