Self Made Jobs
SO ... today I am working on something I can email / hand out to people describing the course - as well as defining exactly what I will do with the class, in the hopes that I can get the numbers up. I feel like I need at least 5 or more students to say yes or it's not enough people.
At any rate ... in this field it's true that often you have to create your own ideas/projects to work on, especially when paying gigs are far and few between, in order that your creative juices keep flowing. Plus, I love passing on the info I've learned thus far, and LOVE learning from others. And no matter the age, everyone can teach you something!
I've already done this once - create a project and do it on my own - and had it be successful, and I hope it will continue and become more so! And that is my 24 Hour Theatre Series. I've done 3 different rounds to date, and have a fourth in the planning stages. Yay!
This acting class could - and hopefully will - be my next personally created success!
So, back to work.
