Tom, This is not hart to follow. I was taught by my parents that when you see injustice in the

world. Try to make it right. Try to make a different. Try to speak for the people who can't or

in this case won't out of fear. And have no fear at all. If that makes some people angry thats

just to bad. I don't like bullies at all, I never have. I was taught to speak my mind and its

always gotten me into trouble. It make know I'm alive. Later, Tim

Wayne, First of all I will apologize to you for disrespecting you. You were gushing about

Hallmark and to me it sounded a little fishy. I know you had a great time their and I have

to say that you were one of the best students that I have ever had and I mean that. The

talks I

gave to you and the students about being leaders in the world was not a load of crap.

Leadership is learned behavior. And I said it before and I will say it again I loved the

students that I had at Hallmark. I will never forget them. If you could understand for a

minute what it was like to get kicked in the face by one of the most deeply twisted humans

that I have ever met. And you said something about if I have a problem George I should

bring it up with him. I would never speak to that zero again. I wish it had not ended like

that but it did. I know thats not your problem. I will say

that I saw your work online and it just gets better and better so keep up the good work.

Later,

Tim

I read all the postings and I have to say that Wayne you have to be getting paid by

Hallmark for the ass kissing your doing. That's one man's opinion. I taught at The Small

Mark Institute that's what we called it. I was there for 2 years and it was a very very silly

place. Wayne I had you as a student you know exactly what I'm talking about. The owner

of the school is a pimp this guy puts the term sleaze ball at whole new level. Ask him

about his $100,000 plus Porsche and $200,000 Benz and the Rolex then ask him why

is school so expensive. Then ask this guy why does he treat his staff like they are his

slaves

and they are so he thinks. There are so many things I saw in the 2 years I was there it

would take me a month to write it down and I would have to do therapy. I had a great time

with the students

it was all about the students for me. If I "got caught" their words not mind having lunch or

dinner with students or being with a student after school I would be fired. But I had

breakfast, lunch and

dinner with students I would go to their homes and they would come to mind. I would go

mountainbiking or rollerblading or running with students for the 2

years I was there. Because I was not going to let this psychopath tell me what to do on my

time. You will be taught the basics of photography there but, you can get that at a few

different schools in New England. I left that place to take a much better teaching job in

Boston. Anyway if ANYONE out there what to talk to me about anything I said here you call

me anytime. Thanks for your time, 617-568-9000

P.S. If my english is not perfect sorry about that. I'm very dyslexic.

Yes, to your question CDIA is an only digital school. Film is never ever going to be used again

in commercial photography its just cost to much. Good luck with your search.

Hi Heath, My take on your question is. The best way to predict the future is to create it.

Check out CDIA at BU in Boston. If give us 9 months we will make you a photographer and

then there is no looking back.

Hi Luisa, I went to NESOP 25 years ago and it has not changed much. You should go there

if you never have to make any money with your camera. Lots of people over the years have

gone there to do the Artsy-Fartsy B+W thing. Let me just say that CDIA is a great school. I

love the people who offer their opinion on both schools and first of all don't have a clue

about photography or about the schools. The reason I say that is look at their work. If

their work is lame don't even consider their opinion. "You are only as cool as your images

in the world of photography". You can quote me on that.

Yes, I know I have a very strong opinion but only about the photography world. I have

been making my living as a shooter for 20 years now and I have worked very hard to get

here.

The reason I say CDIA is a great school is because I mean it. I taught at Hallmark for 2

years and that place is a laugh in the photography world. I thought I could make a

difference there but the owner of the school is such a "clown pimp". I know wrap your

head around those two words together. Its true! But that's just one man's opinion. I have

been teaching at CDIA for 2 years now and I know that you would have a great experience

there. Real-world training is what we are all about. By the way I do not get anything from

writing this about CDIA. I 'm very passionate about what I do. I offer you to come and sit in

my class for a couple of hours and will prove that to you. Thank you for your time.

If you want a very good professional photography program look into CDIA in Boston its part

of Boston University. It takes 9 months and they will give you a very sound digital technical

background. So you can come out of that program and be able to hit the streets running with

anyone in the professional world. I'm talking about studying hard core Photoshop, digital

capture, of people and product, models, wedding and events. I have been teaching there for

2 years. I taught for 2 years at Skid-mark or Small-mark thats what we called it. And that

place was a joke. That's one man's opinion. I loved the students. I had a great time with

students. I'ts all about the students for me and nothing else. That place is all about the

money and the pimp who owes it.
