Mentoring on ACME a Competitive Advantage for Sony Artists
When Chad Hellmuth, Associate Department Manager, Artist Management at Sony Pictures Imageworks, sits down to explain why he schedules time for Sony artist mentoring on ACME, we're all ears. Chad's resume sparkles with digital production management and visual effects credits that include The Chronicles of Riddick, Dr. Seuss' the Cat in the Hat, Daredevil, Scooby-Doo, The 6th Day, Battlefield Earth, End of Days, and Alien: Resurrection, and a seven year track record of engaging artists at Sony while getting the job done for management. Why does it make sense to schedule time for mentoring? The answer is: ACME helps Sony with artist development and recruiting- a competitive advantage.
Chad says, "The connection with ACME gives our artists a fresh take on mentoring and critique and helps to further develop their talents. It not only encourages ACME's students, but it helps our professionals gain experience in giving positive and effective feedback. This kind of mentoring helps our artists practice the type of skills that come into play when they're leading a unit or team or working as a supervisor. It helps them see both sides of management."
