What are people saying?
"The event was a very cool way to meet up with creative people from a variety of backgrounds. A refreshing way to meet people." — Eric, writer/director • "Dude, that salon was awesome!! I'm so stoked how impressive it was. Thanks again for hosting!" — Charles, motion graphics designer • "These salons are blowing up!! Great job, can't wait for the next one." — Chris, filmmaker • "The cocktail salon went super well. I ended up leaving at 10:30, but the conversations were just really involved. I think some connections have been made between people." — David, animator • "It's difficult to describe these types of gatherings to the uninitiated because there free form nature allows them to morph. I had a great time on Saturday in spite of (or because of) I didn't know most of the guys there. The topics I personally discussed ranged from the techniques of photographing fight scenes to critiques of Hayao Miyazaki's work to the very nature of objective reality; good stuff!" — Mike, location soundRead More
