transparently with your FilmLA
coordinator and possibly a
solution can be found or a
revision made. Stopping short
of delivering the common
adage, "It always works out,"
but again buttressing the idea
to think of FilmLA as a part of
the team.
"The LMGI promotes
excellence and
professionalism in our field. I
was proud to see the turnout
of our members, which ranged
from newer ALMs to seasoned
veterans, confirming they are
always interested in expanding
their knowledge base," said
Michael Wesley.

chicken breasts with ease.
The forbidden rice and
mushrooms served as great
accompaniments but in the
end, it was the broccoli grilled
al dente and roasted multi-
colored peppers that packed
the sneakiest of punches.
Vietnamese coffee or salted
chocolate ice cream bars
proved to be the toughest

The final offering of the
educational Solstice event
was a sound bath, led by
Candice Puthawala, replete
with stress relief techniques
and relaxation methods.
Simple hacks such as taking
a deep breath and balancing
oneself before a call can make
a significant difference during
that call. A small-yet-poignant
reminder that, "It's not about
getting rid of stress but
building capacity to handle
stress as it comes." Wesley
added in closing, "I appreciate
FilmLA taking the time to
speak to our Guild and I thank
Danny Finn and Sheila Ryan
for their work making this
event a success."
