I didn't mention any company by name. You didn't hire me after I asked what the compensation was for 20 hours of weekly work for 18 weeks of work. Your add said paid. You then said maybe "beer money"! You didn't hire me because that would have implied some type of payment. If I would have worked for free then you'd have been glad to have me work for you. When I explained how much work you were really asking for you jumped all over me! <BR> It wasn't me that was paranoid Shawn, it was you- because you knew you were trying to get people to do as much as possible for nothing. Can't even deliver on an IMDB credit?....again wow. <BR> Actually my posts on Youtube are for work I've done in the past and the original score I did for you that you never used was just one of <I>three</I> I posted. I don't think of you or your company unless I read something on NEOPAL where someone is looking for something for nothing. <BR><BR> Mark Schulz<BR><BR>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>NEOHIOPAL members, someone chose to take a public shot at me and my company, so I'd appreciate the chance to defend myself/ourselves.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>This is the post:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>Sadly, this isn't the first pitch I've seen on this site for unpaid work. There is a Cleveland based company soliciting unpaid EVERYTHING on this site constantly, and I KNOW that they have corporate backing/money, tv placement and paid advertising in their time slot on tv. In lieu of actual payment, they call their "training" session a free "camp" in which they show you how to do the work they want you to do for free!! <BR><BR> I think all adverts for "unpaid" work should be quarantined onto another page. <BR><BR> Mark Alan Schulz<BR><BR><BR><FONT size=2 face=Arial>This is a blatant cheap shot for several reasons.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>First of all, our planned Boot Camp is a first, we've never done it before. All attendees were to work on the exact same footage and segment, so what exactly were we going to gain from it, other than to see who had potential and could be offered paid internships?</FONT></DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>
<DIV><BR>We have already hired several people through NOEHIOPAL to decent, full-time positions. They enjoy the work, are helping the community and even winning EMMYs. No one works for free.</DIV>
<DIV></DIV></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Secondly, when we started our television show, we were hanging by a thread, and were very clear about actors being volunteers. It was a community service and the show has never been profitable. Several local acting veterans and mentors even contacted us about our posts, asking for further explanation for the unpaid roles, which we provided. We even changed the way we wrote our posts based on their feedback. Our actors are now paid and have been since last year.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Thirdly, what corporate backing/money have we had? You (Mark) walked into our office and saw us doing a commercial job for my former employer (located downstairs in our office building) and developed some sort of strange conspiracy theory, which is why...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>(Fourthly) we didn't hire you Mark Schultz. If you are going to take a pop shot, explain to the readers that you tried to work for us but we were afraid of your paranoia. That sort of history might explain why you would make these illogical leaps and assumptions now, two years later.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Why take out your bitterness and regrets on a public forum? We took great risks and are finally starting to reap rewards. Is that a bad thing? The only thing we promised anybody but haven't delivered on is IMDB credit - which we're still trying to figure out - and we will figure it out. Other than that, our promises have been kept.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I can't sit by and let you post this stuff based on wild thoughts, bitterness and jealousy and not step up to defend myself. I wondered why you posted a YouTube video of your music blaring over our work - the day after the EMMYs. <A href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yJXrC0_D1g" target=_blank>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yJXrC0_D1g</A> Were we on your mind? Apparently so.</FONT></DIV></DIV></DIV><BR>______________________________________<BR><BR>NEohioPAL is SELF-SERVE.
