[NEohioPAL] RE: Question about listing in NEohioPAL Digest "Film Boot Camp"

[Crystal Kelley]

I was interested in this NEHST Film Boot Camp that is coming up. Has anyone ever attended this particular boot camp before? 
What does one get out of these workshops? Were you satisfied with what was presented? Do you think it is a scam or even worth four hundred dollars?
Thanks
