As (most often introverted) creatives, we tend to run, sweat, and/or cry at the sight of a networking event. People are scary and can be unpredictable. But we need them to market our abilities, find investors for our projects, and to seek out job opportunities as professionals. This workshop is tailored to help you, the filmmaker or actor, build strong and healthy professional relationships and “break the ice” of intimidating conversation. We will discuss tools and approaches to help you engage and remove “the self” from conversation, obtain contact information, and lead to a successful “follow-up.” Plus some tools to navigate social media, develop exposure for your work, and network through the virtual sphere. A strong network leads to a successful career — no one likes to celebrate alone, so let's grow together!
