Hi guys,

Since I wrote on my MM profile that Im keen to help out aspiring models, Ive had a ton of questions and even skyped with both guys and girls wanting to get into the industry.

I wanted some feedback on an idea I'm working on for us aspiring creatives to find, and talk directly to experienced seniors in our industry.
I've built a 'coming soon' page at www.dunnit.me with more info.

Would love to know your honest (please dont hold back) opinions on topics like

a) whether people even want to talk to experienced creatives?
b) how much would you pay to speak to someone at the top if anything?
c) what creative industries need mentors?
d) specifically who would you pay to talk to and how much?
e) anything else!!

Thanks in advance

Looking for feedback...

After a careful and thoughtful review of "Dunnit" my sincere thoughts are this post is little more than SPAM....

Attempting to solicit on an open "free" internet forum for a for profit entity is wrong...

From your commercial endeavor "Dunnit" in regard to "Mentors" Receive fair payment for your time
This ploy is old as the hills...  even the ASMP uses it in their "Professional Portfolio Review"
Little more than a revenue generating scam to fleece wannabee hopefuls with unrealistic aspirations...
A.K.A. "Make my a Model" "Make me a (insert "Fashion", "Glamour", "Fine Art") Photographer... 

Seriously...  this thread needs to be removed as SPAM in my humble estimation...
