WPPI March 2-4, 2015

The WPPI Wedding & Portrait Photography Conference+Expo is the premier industry event for photographers and filmmakers specializing in the creative and business aspects of wedding and portrait photography and filmmaking.

CES January 6-9, 2016
The International CES (Consumer Electronics Show) is the world’s gathering place for all who thrive on the business of consumer technologies. It's where business gets done: on the show floor, in and around our conference program, in impromptu connections and in planned meetings and special events.

 What I like to do is to follow certain Film Groups on FB to know what's going on in the city. My friends always post all the important events. Either it's a studio opening or release party I always try to be present. Since I am a student I get free entrance to conventions, so I enjoy myself meeting new people and seeing innovations.

EOC: Career Goals

I've always seen myself as a busy, productive person. For today my goal is to put my Video Production company together within the next year. Since I don't have a big budget, I will start as a freelancer doing commercials, live events, music videos, short films. By the third year I am planning to have 5 employees such as: editor, visual effects, script writer, audio and camera specialist.
My first big achievement was a music video for the local band. My husband and me developed the concept, wrote a script, did storyboards, filmed and edited on our own. It took a lot of time to find the talent, make costumes, scout the location and got permission to shoot. In the beginning it seemed hard, but step by step we managed to accomplish our plan.

After the presentation of the music video a few artists contacted us to do theirs. Small business owners got interested in our job too. Today we've signed the contract for $3000 to make a commercial for the lawyer. I did a business plan to know how much to charge, what profit my company will make from each project. By the end of the year I am planning to start making money from my education. I am developing my website, buying license, equipment and putting my name in the market.

I think my strong factors are ability to control and organize. I hope I will be able to have clients, produce good quality of work and be able to provide people with work

Devil Wears Prada Deeper Meaning

This film is about working environment standards. It tells us that you can't come to the job interview unprepared. You have to get ready by investigating the company, its business and members. Be dressed appropriate, answer without hesitation, be acknowledged. Try to be unique in the presentation of yourself in order to compete with the rest. If you are lucky to be selected, behave due to the norms they have. Do not neglect, make fun or disrespect the business and co-workers; show the interest during the working process, never be late, be attentive and responsible.
If you don't know something, it's better to keep your mouth shut instead of talking non-sense. Learn how to become diplomatic. Know how to communicate, address and represent.
When you get a job, it takes time to get comfortable. At first, you feel overwhelmed with the assignments only because the routine and information is new. Be ready to take notes instead of memorizing. It will help you to look professional and functional. Be polite and watch your language. Know your place and responsibilities.
Don't even go to the interview, if you don't have passion about what this position offers. You will waste your time and become sick. You will be sloppy, negative and u will look/feel stupid. Don't think that others can't notice your real attitude and desire.
Unfortunately, when we get older, we want to go with our heart, not just money to pay the bills. This movie makes me re-think what exactly I want to do with my life and which direction to go.
 If you know it, you will find the right tools to get there.

PROFILE STATEMENT

Born and raised in a different culture, I believe that a good story can be understood without language. By using visual imaginary while shooting, I always think about composition, framing and focal point. If I can raise the emotion and get my point across without dialogue - I succeeded with the vision of the story.
