The Trebas Institute is a, er, not-exactly-respected place of schooling in Toronto. This poster is designed to attract young 'uns who wish they could make a living doing something they actually enjoy (good luck, kids!). I had to snicker at the phrase "DJ Arts". Yes, it's an art. No, don't give your money to a school for it. But what really made me laugh is, okay, a camera represents movies... a soundboard represents audio engineering, and... crouching down represents entertainment management??

I 'know' the guy who teaches/taught the DJ Art course when they first intro'd it... he never learned that shit from no text book...

It's just a way for Trebas to get some impressionable kids' money.

call me a music snob i dont give a fuck but any dj who learned how to do it by paying someone at a school too gets the boot. its not the same as paying for piano lessons.

like legal art folk who learn how to 'graf' at ACAD. soft.

I believe crouching makes you adept at selling real estate, too.







I realize he's not crouching but I have a unique appreciation for the picture.
You might, too.

The heretofore untapped power of crouching. I smell a book deal.

And yes, second photo appreciated. I'd like to buy some of HIS real estate IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!!!

*ahem*

Sorry.

DJ Arts?

Having worked in television in Rochester and considering how many media outlets in North America are laying off workers and automating some jobs, I'd get a marker and write over the ad:
"Don't do it!"
"Save your money!"
"Use your cellphone to film!"
"YouTube is free!"

Tell me about it.

I took a four-year film program. The main thing I learned was that universities are greedy.
