This is great life advice for any artist. I do voice over and these lessons apply to me as well. It's almost a law of achievement. There's no other way around it. The key word is "gradually". Today everyone wants to achieve greatness fast! Thanks for sharing your experience. Looking forward to more. Avi.
Maestro, todos sus videos me están sirviendo bastante, he estado pasando por momentos difíciles de depresión por no poder tocar bien la trompeta, pero gracias a Dios encontré sus videos, que Dios lo bendiga por compartir tanta sabiduría, saludos.
Julie Andrews's voice teacher, Madame Lilian Stiles-Allen, used to tell Ms. Andrews, "Remember: the amateur works until he can get it right. The professional works until he cannot go wrong." I used to show my introduction to music students the film, "Leonard Bernstein Conducts West Side Story." They would hear the producer say something like, "Take 289," and my students would, out loud, express such overt astonishment--astonishment that was all the more unusual, because usually introduction to music students say and react very little. They prefer to be wallflowers, because it is so much safer. I finally got it out of them what they were so astonished about: "That man said 'Take 289!' We thought they just went in and played it once and that was it!" They had no idea at all that playing music took so much work--and so very, very much re-work. I am watching every video you make, Mr. Cameron, and I will always admire all of them and you as much as I admired you all those tears at SU. Thank you!
