You've heard of "speed dating"? Well, this is SPEED MENTORING, except it is 10 minutes of one-on-one time with successful professionals and no "duds"!
We start out with a group session to introduce the mentors and hear about their skills, talents and experience; then the participants get to pick their brains on the subjects of THEIR choice. We urge them to think of questions and come prepared to make the most of their time with each mentor. "Think outside the set or studio". How can a talent agent help a documentary producer? Well, maybe with a unique or known voice to narrate a project. How can a film reviewer mentor an aspiring actor? Maybe by pointing out impressive and winning performances from recent and long-ago films? That's just a few ideas to get the thinking started.
In addition to the mentoring, this is a wonderful opportunity to meet people who are out there actually "doing it" -- that is, working in "the biz". These contacts can prove invaluable in the future, but we're giving immediate access to people who can give advice and answers.
