Chandano Fuller: In Portland, Oregon.

Looking for an agent

Thanks for the invite, Chandano! Continued success to you in all your endeavors...

Welcome to the fold, Chandano! Thanks for the invitation.

Thank you for adding me to your network, Mr. Fuller.

I had a good conversation with some actors tonight, and I brought up the idea of how artists have to be Antifragile to develop sustainability. The term comes from the book "Antifragile: Things That Gain From Disorder" by Nassim Nicholas Taleb. In a nutshell, for something/someone to be antifragile, the object/person has to become stronger when exposed to stress. It's analogous to how your muscles rebuild themselves stronger after being worked out. So this is how it pertains to your career. Unlike the accountant who chooses a "safe, stable career", you are actively choosing a career that is unpredictable. Most days you wake up unemployed, wondering when your next job will arrive. Over time, this makes you more resilient. You will actually develop a more "stable" existence than the accountant. Why? Just think of what happens when the accountant gets let go after 15 years of working hard? Sadly, many people face that reality, especially during financial crises, and they don't know how to move on. They remain truly unemployed for months or years, without a firm grasp on how to transition to the next phase of their life. Not you! Being unemployed is your JOB! You interview every day of your life! And when you DO get the job, it may only last 1 day, and then you're back to being unemployed. So embrace your antifragility. It makes you stronger every day. It prepares you for life's ups and downs, and makes you more resilient. So now the next time your college-buddy-who-became-an-investment-banker mocks your lifestyle as an artist, you'll secretly know you're better off than they are...

I'm looking to create and start a team/brand full of writers, actors, producers, directors, etc..... ONLY SERIOUS PEOPLE INQUIRE.
