- More info on Personal Animation Coaching Sent Saturday, February 5, 2011 I've been getting a lot of questions about the Personal Animation Coaching that we are now offering, so I thought I'd write an email to clarify things. For a 15 minute coaching call, you would pay $30 (USD) For a 30 minute coaching call, $50 And a 1 hour coaching call would be $70 If you book a certain amount of time, you can break it down into smaller segments. For instance, if you book 1hr, you can break that down into 4 x 15min session. These sessions can occur all in one day […]

- Animation Coaching is buzzing along! Sent Tuesday, January 18, 2011 Hey , It's been a while since I've sent out an email. To be honest, the Personal Animation Coaching Program was more involved than I had anticipated. Most of the students are still being coached. But the feedback has been stellar! Many of the students claim that they learned more in one coaching session than an entire YEAR of schooling. That made me think: why not offer individual coaching sessions? I'd like to hear your feedback. Would you be interested in individual coaching […]

- It's ok to be yourself... Sent Tuesday, November 16, 2010 You know, when a struggling young George Gershwin asked the world famous composer Maurice Ravel for a low-paid apprenticeship, Ravel gave Gershwin an invaluable piece of advice: Gershwin, if you study with me, you'll only write second-rate Ravel instead of first-rate Gershwin. To think we might not have such masterpieces as Rhapsody in Blue or any of the numerous unforgettable musicals that George Gershwin composed (including one of my favorites: Shall We Dance?)! We might […]
