Paying Job This Weekend!

Hi there! I work with Curtis Brown (www.cbpdance.com), and we are in
need of a second shooter for a dance competition this weekend in
Savannah at the Civic Center. We aren't able to pay very much ($200
for the weekend), but it would provide a great opportunity for a young
photographer to gain experience with stage photography and improve
their timing skills. In addition, it would provide experience on the
sales side of photography, as we shoot, display, sell, and burn
on-site with an iPad system. If you have any students who might be
interested in this opportunity, please have them contact me at this
email address (mitch@mitchdanforth.com).
