Fall 09

Needless to say I was not teaching or mentoring over the summer, though I have been working on a class for USC.

I will be speaking to a class of grad students at the Comm School on October 6th. The topic will be Development Ideals, wherein a discuss the kind of content that builds audience.

I've been working on a series of lectures on this topic so it will be fun to take it all out for a spin.

I'll blog again after the class.

How to get a job

1. Join Twitter and follow me. I tweet about a lot of social media/job hunting related items. Follow your desired workplaces. Follow Mashable.

2. Join production newsletters like cynopsis.com. Contact the people hiring in the classified section, even if the job is not for you. Usually they are HR people. They hire every level.

3. Show up at your friend's gig and look like you fit in.

4. Listen to every conversation on every production you manage to get on.

5. Create a long list of contacts in your address book.

6. Join Linkedin and other networking sites that feature production.

7. Upload on YouTube so you can link to it in an email so that professionals can see your work EASILY.

Look at my links section. I will add more relevant links as I come across them.

8.Use Craigslist.
