		<title>Web Content Creation: Testing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[“Don’t ask people if they would buy – ask them to buy. The response to the second is the only one that matters… Ask ten people if they would buy your product. Then tell those who said ‘yes’ that you have ten units in your car and ask them to buy. The initial positive responses, [...]

		<title>Web Content Creation: A Model</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over the last few months, a group of friends and I have been moving towards shooting a web series pilot. I’m learning a lot from the process, and I want to explore ideas surrounding the creative strategy of independent web content creation. Most of this is likely applicable to any independent project, but my focus [...]

		<title>Without Memory</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Image the work we could do without memory. &#160; If we worked without remembering all the times we failed: &#160; the product we announced would change the world. the novel we’d finally finish. the instrument we’d learn to play. the video that would go viral. the screenplay that’d give us our break. the blog we [...]

		<title>Unprofessional</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Being a professional is not your arrival to a level. Regardless of the field, you don’t stake a claim to professionalism, or petition for permanent residency. Getting paid doesn’t make you a professional. Neither do sponsorships, or praise from your constituents &#8212; all whom may consider themselves professionals based the above standard. Professionalism happens minute-to-minute. [...]

		<title>Showing Up</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Timeliness has become such a rarity that arriving on time is the new gold standard. &#160; We’re bombarded with people who don’t value their time or the time of others. So much so that just showing up for work, being physically present at the agreed upon time is a Gold Star worthy endeavor. Being on [...]

		<title>Who&#8217;s Got Ammo?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We were playing cards, and I busted out of the cash game with something or another. I moved to re-buy and started counting chips when Joe interrupted me. “Wait, you’re buying in for double?” he asked. The rule of thumb is: have as many chips in front of you as possible. You need ammunition to [...]

		<title>Exodus</title>
		<description><![CDATA[According to a statistic I thought sounded great and didn’t bother to verify, of the annual one million freshly minted Los Angeles transplants looking for entry into the entertainment business,  only 5,000 stick it out past year one. We’re talking about point-five-percent &#8212; only half a percent stay in Los Angeles past their first year. [...]

		<title>Anyone, Anything, Any $</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Several months ago I decided the following mantra would define the next year: “Work for anyone, on anything, for any amount of money.” I still was (am) new to Los Angeles and the entertainment business. I figured regardless of what I did, I’d learn something new. More importantly, a blanket “yes” without regard to my [...]
