Where you are in your process will determine what that piece is. If you're in the very early stages, share your influences and what's inspiring you. If you're in the middle of executing a project, [show] your methods or share works in progress. If you've just completed a project, show the final product, share scraps from the cutting-room floor, or [show] what you learned."
This is the focus of our November 12 Social Sundays event.
Have something to show? Perhaps it's a new monologue you've been working on working on for your audition reel? A few pages of script that you've written? A rough cut of your latest short film?
