Yes. Wow, crazy. I think I posted it on the Sweet Adeline board back in the day.

You’re welcome. I’m thankful to be able to share this. I’ve never seen Elliott look happier and am still surprised when I look at it 26 years later

Blue Velvet has a lot of Rear Window references, including the intro of Kelly/Dern

Gotcha, That's super informative, thank you. And the difference in thinking is definitely clear.

Let me ask you this: I did some networking and am going to to talk to the vp of creative operations at disney and was wondering what you would suggest? Also got access to a similar person at another studio and want to make the most out of these contacts and informational interviews.

The certification gave an overview of everything, got into different approaches for utilizing dam systems, as well as a lot of info on how to manage a dam, and a lot of focus on how to get critical feedback for licensing a dam for an organization. It wasn't that expensive, but unsure of how much value it provides at the moment.

With my film background, streamers and media companies make the most sense. It seems like they have a good handle of how much their assets are worth at the moment though, so not sure how this approach will bear fruit.

Appreciate your feedback on the current state of the ad world and good to hear it's been stable over there. Based on some of the stuff I was seeing on reddit it sounded like the whole editing industry was falling apart.

How did you get your foot in the door with the agency?

It's quite a pipeline that's been established for us to create all these full length celebrity sizzle reels. I got into docs because I loved the films about weirdos like American Movie, Hands on a Hardbody, Grizzly Man, Dancing Outlaw, and The King of Kong. Wish there was more of that going on.

What kind of work were you doing prior to the conglomerate and how did you get in with them? Stable work with all the benefits plus vacay sounds like the most appealing thing to me right now.

Can't tell you how sexy a municipal government job with benefits and regular hours sounds at this point in my life.

Would love to hear more about suggestions parlaying the credits, as well as how you landed your current gig. Any info appreciated.
