My phone consultation with Mary Virginia Swanson had an immediate, eye opening impact on the direction of my work. Her insights into my project fostered enhanced communication with my subjects and their families, resulting in more effectively delivering my message to viewers. She helped me define goals and list the steps necessary to achieve logical and attainable progression for my project. A phone consult is a very effective, timely way to communicate with Ms. Swanson and I look forward to our next conversation.
