Title: Crafting a Meaningful Career- Part OneCourse Section Number: ACN-473-01
Description:
An invaluable class for mid-career professionals eager to take their careers to the next level! Change naturally occurs as careers evolve. Sometimes change is forced upon us; sometimes we have to make it happen ourselves. Ask yourself, "Isn't it time to shake things up and reach deeper into my talent?" Based on the principles laid out in his book, "How to Grow as a Photographer: Reinventing Your Career" (Allworth Press), Tony Luna has created this engaging class for mid-career professionals who want to revitalize their career perspectives. He has been a creative consultant, artist representative and producer for 39 years. His lectures, workshops and classes have inspired a generation of creative entrepreneurs. This empowering class follows in that tradition drawing on interviews with veteran commercial artists and testimonials from past clients and students. Students have used this information to rediscover their passion, embrace risk, create a new artistic voice and take control of their creative destiny.
