　　TPO 10　Conversation 1
　　Narrator
　　Listen to a conversation between a student and her Photography Professor.

　　Student
　　Professor Jason, there is something that’s been on my mind.

　　Professor
　　Ok.

　　Student
　　Remember last week, you told us that it's really important to get our
　　photography into a show, basically as soon as we can?

　　Professor
　　Yes up, it's a big step, no question.

　　Student
　　Thing is, I am sitting here and I am just not sure how I get there. I mean I’ve got
　　some work I like, but is it the really what the gallery is looking for? How would I
　　know, how do I make the right context to get it into show, I just really don't...

　　Professor
　　Ok, slow on, slow on. Um…these are questions, well, just about every young
　　artist has to struggle with. Ok, the first thing you should do is you absolutely
　　have to stay true to your artistic vision; take the pictures you want to take.

　　Don't start trying to catch the flavor the monsoon, be trendy because you think
　　you are getting into a show--- that never works, because you wanna them
　　creating something you don't really believe in. That sounds uninspired, and
　　won’t make any shows. I've seen that have happened so many times. This
　　doesn’t mean that you should go into the caves. Keep up with the trends, even
　　think about how your work might fit in with them, but don't mindlessly follow
　　them.

　　Student
　　Well, yeah, I can see that. I think though I have always been able to stay pretty
　　true to what I want to create, not what others want me to create. I think that
　　comes through my work.

　　Professor
　　Ok, just remember that is one thing to create works that you really want to
　　create one that in the classroom. The only thing is stake is your grade. But
　　what create outside the classroom? That could be in different story. Eh, I'm not
　　talking about techniques or things like that. It's just there is so much more
　　stake when you are out there ** art for living. There are a lot of pressures
　　to become something you are not, and people often surrendered to that
　　pressure.

　　Student
　　But to get stuff it exhibited…

　　Professor
　　Well, you need to be a bit of opportunists. Now, a common sense things like
　　always having a sample if you worked on hand to give the people. You won’t
　　believe the kind of contacts and opportunists you get it in this way. And try to
　　get your work seen in the places like restaurants, bookstores, you will be
　　surprised how world get surround it about photography in places like then.

　　Student
　　Ok it's just so hard to think about all of these practical things and make good
　　work, you know
