 "In the summer of 1990, I became a DGA Trainee on the mean streets of New York. I was twenty one years old and a year out of college with a degree in film production that would never serve me any real purpose except as the prerequisite for the training program." - Jenn

 "It's like being a part of a not so secret society, and even though we all have different stories, and experiences within the same industry, it feels like there is a common bond between us, and there's something to be said for that!" - Michelle Flevotomas

"...there is a little secret that not everybody talks about, and that is the unique sense of belonging that DGA trainees find in each particular assignment. We are AD's in training, yes, but we are also there to build a family comprised of long lasting friends, weave a web of well-connected colleagues and be part of a story full of unforgettable moments recorded only in the minds of those behind the cameras." - Marcos Gonzalez Palma (Class of '08)

 "..particularly the age thing, I was nervous about that. I mean, I'm not exactly on the grave, but I thought, 'oh, it's a young industry, there won't be any room for me.'" - Mary Rae Thewlis

 "The Film set is like the solar system. The Director being the sun, is circled by all these planets. And the First Assistant Director is closest to the director, then there is the Second Assistant Director, then the Directors Guild Trainee. They all work together." - Joesph Reidy
