  Dear College Student,

  Having tried myself to put together a beautiful (sue me!) ensemble for =
an independent movie once in Chicago--prior to establishing a "legit" =
film company--I at least know how complicated it can be what with all =
the countless steps needing to be taken prior to a shoot.  Althouth =
Lucas (who I do not know) failed to request a resume, he did explain in =
detail the gist of the movie he's making, along with the dates and a few =
other notes.   Measures that can be taken on your part include writing =
the requestor (email first) and probing for more information, asking for =
references to the project, setting up a cell phone or other phone line =
dedicated for calls incoming from film biz prospectors, and asking if =
it's okay to bring along someone you feel safe with to the shoot.  Your =
worries are not unfounded--I saw too much of this "victimization" you =
wrote of while trying to establish a film career out in Hollywood for =
the past 6 years or so.  Still, there is some savvy work that can be =
done on your end to make sure you end up in the right place--

  Peace,

  A college graduate

women through email is not an appropriate action.

    Sincerely,
    A college student.
