We extend our deepest thanks to Jason Konopisos for being our Guest Speaker on December 11! He shared his insights about numerous aspects of the buziness, and as a writer, director, actor and producer, he knows them! He answered numerous questions, and both his passion and his knowledge were evident in every word he spoke. Thanks, Jason! A great presentation!
