A Post-Oscars Special: Artists, Awards & Acceptance [RFS Bonus]

March 3, 2016 By Ron Dawson Leave a Comment

Leave it to Radio Film School to turn a funny anecdote about swing dancing into a valuable lesson for filmmakers and artists of all kinds.

Why are we artists and creatives so obsessed with awards and competitions? There’s a perverse irony in the fact that something as personal and subjective as “art” can be judged in the first place. With the 2016 Academy Awards Oscar celebration behind us, I felt compelled to produce a bonus episode of the show to address what I feel is an important lesson we filmmakers, and artists in general, should heed. Enjoy!
