For the business cards I had to obtain, I pretty much just looked up my needs online. I would search for somebody relatively close by and call them. I asked a few questions about what they do and what they offered. Since price wasn’t an issue at the time, I didn’t ask any money questions, but know I would have to in the future. After that I agreed on who I felt to be the best choice, walked down (everything was actually within a ¼ mile walk from my residence) and grabbed the cards. A couple people I said ‘hello’ to, but for the attorney I just walked in and grabbed a card.
My networking progress has been going well. Since my job requires me to attend a ton of events, such as CES or red carpet coverage, I am able to meet many people. Although nothing has really lead me anywhere yet, I expect that upon graduation, and upon me starting my own production books for my scripts, I will be able to make phone calls to these people and see what they can do for me and the film. I am attending and filming the up and coming Film Festival in Boulder City, NV so there is another event I will be networking at. Looking forward to that, because I’d like to start focusing on my filming career now and not just paying bills.
