Fresh Italian blood?

Basically, this morning I was in Venice to have a talk with a docent from the local Art Lyceum, who is very interested in cinematography (and involved in the Venice Film Festival) and he agreed to work on a document to present to the head of the school to formerly request permission to proceed with the promotion of WAM amongst the students.

So hopefully there will be a new wave of fresh Italian blood coming up in a few weeks/months. If I manage to catch the students' attention and motivate them enough to bother to try and practice their knowledge of the English language, that is.

I really hope everybody will be nice to these young artists-in-the making when/if they finally join up. I will of course try to support them as I can, but I am assuming they will need to feel welcome by others as well in order to feel motivated enough to keep hanging around. ^^'
