by Kristina Michelle 02 Nov '20

02 Nov '20

Cleveland Academy of Film Acting has gone virtual. With the COVID-19 pandemic preventing us from holding in-person classes, we began offering virtual training earlier this year. You can now train in the safety of your own home, from anywhere! We have students in Cleveland, Los Angeles, and Atlanta, and if you'd like to join our classes, now is a great time to do it. Your first class will be a one-hour private lesson, before transitioning to a semi-private two-student class, with yourself and another actor working together. Spots are very limited and fill up quickly. For more information or to inquire about signing up, visit worldeonline.com/acting-classes.html. Please do not reply to this e-mail with inquiries. Use the e-mail on the website above. Instructors: Ray Szuch - 4 time Emmy nominated & 3 time Emmy winning producer / 4 time Telly winning executive producer Kristina Michelle - 4 time Telly winning actress & producer / host of a nationally syndicated television show

Free webinars "Contracts for Creative Employees" Nov. 5 and "IP Basics" Dec. 3
by Jessica Paine 02 Nov '20

02 Nov '20

"Contracts for Creative Employees" (VLA Bootcamp 2020: Part I) - THIS THURSDAY FREE live webinar by the Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts<http://www.clemetrobar.org/VLA> (VLA) of the Cleveland Metropolitan Bar Association<http://www.clemetrobar.org/> (CMBA) Nov. 5, 1:00-2:00 p.m. As part of their mission to promote a vibrant local arts community, the CMBA's Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts periodically presents "VLA Bootcamp" where members of the public can learn more about important, basic issues for artists. Part I of the 2020 VLA Bootcamp features "Contracts for Creative Employees." Although the image of the solo artist coated in paint in their studio may come to mind most readily, many artists work for companies or corporations (e.g., a graphic designer working for an ad agency, a musician working for an orchestra, a designer working for a fashion house). What do artistic employees (and the attorneys who advise them) need to know to protect their work and further their careers? Discussion by our panel of experts, including immediate past VLA Chair Anna Kelberg-Kim and current Vice Chair Tom Horwitz, will include copyrights (e.g., the employee's output belongs to the company, not the employee), employment discrimination, and collective bargaining for artists. Registration required Members of the public click here<https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_2qOkymTfSuGZpBjw_90xMA> - attendance is FREE "Intellectual Property: Basics & Real Life Application" (VLA Bootcamp 2020: Part II) FREE live webinar by the Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts<http://www.clemetrobar.org/VLA> of the Cleveland Metropolitan Bar Association<http://www.clemetrobar.org/> Dec. 3, 4:00-5:00 p.m. In VLA Bootcamp Part II on Dec. 3, our panel of VLA attorneys will lay down the foundation of IP basics: copyrights, patents, trademarks, and trade secrets. Which form of IP is intended to protect creative works and where to start to identify what you need? What are some of the pitfalls to avoid in using copyrighted artwork and music from the internet? After covering the basics of protection (both for your own work and to avoid violating others' rights), our panel will discuss common IP issues and fact patterns that have arisen in real-life VLA applications over the years, and how they have handled them as volunteer attorneys. Registration required Members of the public click here<https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_bZAVwG4rQdiG73ypJzenLQ> - attendance is FREE .................................................

Addressing Gun Violence in a Video - need volunteers
by Noah Budin 01 Nov '20

01 Nov '20

Dear Neopal – I sit on the board of a localnonprofit called God Before Guns (Godbeforeguns.org) I’m looking for volunteers toparticipate in a short video project to be used as part of a virtual healingservice to be broadcast on the web on December 12. The video may also bearchived on our website. Specifically, I’m looking for peoplewho have lost friends or loved ones to gun violence* and/or Covid-19, especially in this last year, but it can be anytime. Thesepeople need to be comfortable appearing on screen and sharing the name, date,and cause of death of their loved one. They will not be required to speak oncamera, just appear with a mask. Video clips only need to be between 5-10 seconds long. In order to maintain safety and virusmitigation precautions, we never have to meet in person - I will be asking youto use your own phone and send the clip to me (though we can work out other arrangements if necessaryand feasible). If you fit this description, pleasecontact me at nbudin(a)sbcglobal.net. I will send detailed instructions (whichmay help you make a decision about whether you can do this). If you know ofanyone who may be interested in participating, please pass this message alongto them or just have them contact me at that email address. My deadline for receiving all videosis November 15, 2020. Please reach out to me with anyquestions. Thank you for your time consideration. *For clarity, suicide by firearm is a form of gun violence. If you've lost someone to suicide, you have my deepest condolences, and you may consider taking part in this video if it feels appropriate for you to do so.
