@Tom Poole Hey do you mind if I send you an email? Just trying to figure something out and weigh my options. -Monica

@Tom Evans Thanks Tom! Everyone can learn a lot just from compiling all those job postings. Can’t say I haven’t done that already but it’s good to get people’s personal opinions too. @Tom Poole Keep doing you! The assistant/mentor relationship is actually one of my favorite things about post. I feel like you don’t really get that in other areas of filmmaking, but maybe thats just me. Also, this is probably a good quote to think about for people who hire- “Don’t hire anyone you wouldn’t want to run into the hallway at three in the morning.” - Lorne Michaels @Orash Rahnema It’s a great practice. It kindof reminds me of really traditional Italian shoemakers and their apprentices. If anything it seems the main deal is just to work hard and learn as much as you can so you’re ready when it’s time to move up. @cameronrad If you have the eye for it you're already doing well! Also Resolve is free so you can learn the interface.

Hi everyone! I'm wondering what you'd like to see in the Assistant Colorist of your dreams. What makes a good candidate for those often highly coveted color assist positions? Not asking for a friend, ha. -Monica

Hey everyone, Just found Lowepost and it looks like a decent place to lurk. Glad theres a corner of the internet dedicated to talking about all things color. Let me know what you think about my new reel... I'm excited to see what you guys think of it. -Monica
