THE NOVEMBER MENTORING EVENT A SUCCESS!
from Joanne Parsont, SF Film Society:
I'd say it was definitely a success. It really didn't matter how many students you had there -- it felt full and lively and was clearly a REALLY valuable experience for all of them. I'd say it is one of the most rewarding and beneficial events you put on for your members (and new members to be). And I agree with the other mentors that it was a worthy use of our time -- I would also gladly do it again. It's really very inspiring to see so many young women who are motivated and determined to make their way in the industry -- we want and need them to succeed! read more about this event on our past events page
