Dearest Frameworkers,
I moved to Los Angeles a little over two months ago. 20 rejected resumes
later I find myself anxious and without income. I spent my last twelve
dollars yesterday night at a screening where I got to see a 35 of Peter
Tscherkassky's Outer Space, and the new video by Takeshi Murata - Monster
Movie. Though worth every penny... it was every penny.
This might be a bit unorthodox for the list-serve, but maybe it will
generate some interesting discussion on the topic of experimental film/video
sustainability for the recent grad.
Does anyone have any suggestion/leads/contacts for a film and video artist
searching for a job related to those passions? Though my unemployment has
allowed me the time to work on my own material and even curate a show for
the traveling festival Cartune Xprez, it hasn't paid my bills.
The call of "The Academy" is a tempting one, and the life of a waiter an
impending one... but I can't help but think I may have left a few rocks
unturned/overlooked.
Hopeful,
Santi Vernetti
