A great resource for aspiring assistants!
I am looking to assist artists on set in my city (Toronto, Canada). Is contacting established artists through MM a good idea?

Hi!  Yes contact artists here--that is howI got my start many --many years ago. I strongly suggest you pick up my book Assisting Rules! because inside there are many tips and tricks on how to go about making that first initial contact and the follow up that is needed to keep the conversation going.

Thanks so much for checking out my YT channel I really do appreciate you
