Thursday was the Academy Excellence Showcase, (fancy title for the day where local and not-so-local industry pros come to our school and review our work/ scout for talent), and contrary to my predictions it went really well! Setbacks aside, I got to meet some people who saw developing aptitude, some who came specifically to see me, and some with other such varied advice and opinion. I handed out a number of my cards and even got a couple of shots at making perfectly clear my views on art as it stands with the public eye. Fun times all around. Now I've got to get a job, lol.
