Meet the Pros

Join CJ Jones for this six-session series of one-hour conversations with successful deaf artists in the world of entertainment and media. You’ll meet directors, writers, actors, and designers and learn how they trained, began their careers, and how they continue to prosper in these highly competitive fields. You’ll gain valuable tips about how to market yourself, find an agent, join a union, and negotiate a contract. Find out what life is like on-set and behind-the-scenes and what creative collaboration is all about. Participants will have the opportunity to submit questions upon registration and enter questions live in the chat during Q&A. All sessions will be recorded and available for password-protected viewing by participants throughout and one week beyond the duration of the course. Guest speakers will be posted as soon as they are confirmed.
