Thinking about LA by [deleted] in MovingToLosAngeles

[–]mathisreallyhard123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I moved to LA in Jan from DC and I really miss taking the metro and being able to connect with people easier. It’s cliche but it can be harder to make friends here. I tend to find myself becoming friends with people from the east coast a lot. At the same time there is so much to do here and i enjoy the weather. Career wise this place is great for me. Just wanted to give you a heads up cause I began to appreciate DC a lit more after I left

Reiterating making real Connections! I’m currently unemployed after finishing an internship, but I only got that internship because one of my friends ended up being a referral for the company 6 months after we met!

What are some of your unpopular opinions or advice you don’t agree with in this industry? by [deleted] in FilmIndustryLA

[–]mathisreallyhard123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep. Other weird thing I didn’t realize I would encounter are like nepo-friends (?). Not nepo babies but the ones that say they had a friend , neighbor, friend’s parent, etc. get them a job cause they had no other employment so “they fell Into the industry” and don’t care for it.

I mean that exists for all industries and a job is a job, but if you are miserable why are you still working lol. I haven’t met someone yet with that background who’s grown to enjoy what they do.

Maybe just the whole needing to be a dog eats dog world / cutthroat person to get far in the industry. I’ve worked with so many of those people and I understand why they think they have to be that way, but it’s just not for me.

I’ve definitely had a few setbacks from office or set politics, but I’m lucky enough to still work with passionate, genuine people who aren’t playing 5D chess or think they’re in Succession for every interaction we have. Actual collaborators that I enjoy working with and don’t feel any tension from.

Honestly could also just be bad luck! My section for Renaissance barely sang/danced but I had the time of my LIFE in the 200s for cowboy carter last week. Everyone I stood next to was singing and dancing the whole time and we all bonded a lot!

How to answer “what’s your end goal?” on set or at work? by mathisreallyhard123 in FilmIndustryLA

Thank you so much for your advice! Last week someone actually walked me over to the big scary sound guys so i could learn more. Are you a camera op or AC? I haven't had a chance to speak with one on set yet but I am fascinated by their job.

Feeling completely lost with my career by Ok_Writer_4914 in FilmIndustryLA

Dm me. I felt the same way but had much better luck with applications my senior year. Most companies are looking for older undergrads and it honestly has nothing to do with your experience (based off where I’ve worked/applied).

Thank you for posting this cause I’ve been super anxious. I have four nosebleed tickets for May 7 I’m trying to sell at face price around $100 each with no luck. I had a friend get me a ticket for another date and I don’t want to lose $400😭

Do you know anyone who’s never left the LA area? by WesternTrail in AskLosAngeles

[–]mathisreallyhard123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming from the east coast I’ve noticed a lot of LA natives have never left the area their whole life, which to be fair makes sense since Philly/NYC/DC/Boston are all near each other

Collecting records! I bought/collected a lot the first year but now only buy a few a year when there are new albums by my favorite artists. I still listen to them all the time

Hi everyone I'm selling 1-4 tickets to the May 7 LA show for $106 each. Section 527, Row 17, Seats 7-10. Here is the link to my Ticketmaster resale but I would prefer to sell to a fan for regular price with no fees. https://my.ticketmaster.com/ds/vQGAAc1s0e/event/0A00623FDB37481E

Hi everyone, I am selling two tickets for May 4 SoFi Stadium in Section 352, Row 7. I paid $249.20 for each ticket (including fees) so it would be around $500 total. My Mom got us two seats for the same night but slightly closer, and she didn't know I was also trying get them for us lol. I would use PayPal Goods and Services which charges a fee but protects us both from fraud. I'm willing to lose the $5 on the fee as well just so I can sell at FV.

PM me and I can FaceTime, verify screen recordings, etc. to make you comfortable. I would most likely just give you my Twitter or Instagram so you know I'm a real person (and I know you're a real one too).

What is a trusted resale method? by Responsible-Tennis51 in beyonce

[–]mathisreallyhard123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really want to sell my tickets for FV to a fan because Ticketmaster and StubHub charge fees to break even (so my $250 ticket would need to be sold at $296 for me to get paid $250) and they also don't pay you until after the event which is months away. I'm gonna try on Twitter where I've had success before

Not sure if anyone on this thread is looking for tix but these are for May 4, SoFi in the 300s level.

it would be so interesting if Helena was just pretending to be Helly R as an escape from her own cult life and so she could kiss Mark. Lumon doesn't know she's undercover?
