								ATTENTION ALL AFTRA MEMBERS!!!!
										JOIN NOW!

Starting October 18, 2004, the AFTRA Conservatory will offer a full 
season of classes and workshops.  We begin in October with the first of 
our HOT PIZZA/COLD READING nights.  These nights will be from 
6:30-9:00.  This means you RSVP and we provide free pizza and drink for 
all who attend.  We then have the opportunity to practice our cold 
reading skills and be critiqued by an "expert".  This is all 
non-judgmental and simply a way for all of us to get better at what we 
do! These sessions are great fun and are for all members, from the 
newest to the most experienced.  The first session will focus on the 
various voice markets.  This will be held at the AFTRA office.  Please 
RSVP as soon as possible!  Karen Fields will be our expert!

On November 15, we'll host MEET THE AGENTS Night and have a chance to 
ask questions and to learn more about what agents can do for us and how 
we help them to help us nail those auditions and get the jobs! The 
location is TBA.

We'll take December off but start up again in January with another 
night of HOT PIZZA/COLD READINGS, this time with the focus on on-camera 
work.  We'll have another pro to help us out. We will meet at the AFTRA 
office.

In February, we plan to have a BUSINESS OF THE BUSINESS session, with 
helpful tax tips, marketing skills and much more!  This meeting is 
tentatively planned for the AFTRA office, depending on the number 
attending.

March is the annual meeting month so we'll skip that one and in April 
have a HOT PIZZA/COLD READINGS session that focuses on cold readings 
for the theatrical audition.  This will be at the AFTRA office.

And we close out the year in May with a night of MEET THE CASTING 
DIRECTORS. The location is TBA.

All in all, a very full year!  And we have added a new twist this year. 
  You can become a conservatory member by paying a $20. fee.  That 
relatively small fee entitles you to attend ALL EVENTS all year!  For 
Aftrans who don't join the Conservatory, the HP/CR nights will have a 
$3.00 charge and the other events will have a $10. fee.  For those who 
don't belong to AFTRA, the only events to which we will open up 
reservations will be for Meet the Agents, Business of the Business, and 
Meet the Casting Directors.  Each of those events then have a $20. fee.

For those who want to join and become a Conservatory member, make the 
check out to AFTRA and send it to Cathy Nowlin at the AFTRA office, 
with the notation that it is for the Conservatory.  Those who wish to 
pay at the first event, the HOT PIZZA/COLD READING on Oct. 18, can do 
so with cash or check.

The FLOC board is very excited about this new season of workshops and 
hopes to see you all there!  If you have any questions or comments, 
please direct them to Cathy Albers or Nancy Telzerow, Conservatory 
Co-Directors.  We can be reached at cla2 at case.edu or NTorq at aol.com.  
See you on October 18!
