Pitching 3-D:
I am not that knowledgeable about the Visual Effects Society. I have heard about them but never attended one of their evens. Shame on me. Sadly, I had to check the email address to find out what VES stood for; I had never seen it abbreviated.
But I do know Pam Thompson and she is good people and I know what she stands for. This should be a good event. Looks like a great lineup of industry heavyweights. Thanks for including ASIFA Pam. Anything dealing with the pitch process is an important event for professional development.

Could you help get the word out about this to the ASIFA membership? Thanks so much! Hope you are having a cool summer!¶ 9:12 AM
