First off, congratulations to David for such an honor. And secondly, would like to recognize just how amazing of an acheivement this is. While I haven't have the chance to work with David Beller, I have talked with people who have and have seen his work on many occasions, and I has most definitly impressed me. I also want to mention just how important it is that large companies like Clear-Com are recognizing the acheivements of those specifically just getting their start. Far too often I feel that awards are given to people who have been in the industry for a decade or two (and while I don't deny that they deserve them) it is great to see that companies are looking at the up and coming artists as well. Bygiving out these awards, it give talented individuals, like David, the leg up when they graduate and head out into the real world. Congrats again David.
It's wonderful to see professional companies involved in the arts giving back to students and rising leaders for the future of the theatre arts. Congratulations to David, I'm sure he more than deserves the award and recognition. To be a recipient of an award given out by a leading company in the performance industry is highly honorable and only goes to show just how talented theatre students are as long as they're dedicated to their craft. Again, congrats to David!
Congratulations to David Beller. It's wonderful that his work was recognized, for him but also for the school of drama and carnegie mellon as a whole. I'm sure David would have done great work wherever he went to school, but it's great that Carnegie Mellon was represented in these awards. Maintaining our status as a top drama school is an ongoing thing, and students being recognized by professionals outside of our little world is an important part of that.
Any student who wants to go to carnegie mellon has surely heard of the long list of famous and accomplished alumni but to see a fellow student receiving such an award is a great reminder of what a great school and program we are all involved in. Congrats to David Beller, definitely deserved the award.
Congratulations David! It is always encouraging to see some sort of fruition for the labor that we invest into our careers across the board. Seeing the success of this caliber so close to home is awesome! It reflects Davids promise and potential as a manager in the field. It also reflects on the curriculum here at Carnegie Mellon and how we are being trained. Its great to know that our program is still, and will remain, top tier in the country. I am also glad companies like ClearCom, and now HME, are actively participating in recognizing young professionals in our field rather than awarding the same old people that have been around forever. This is a great achievement that will launch his career into the real world with a great reputation and a great education.
Congrats to David Beeler...wait Davie Beller...Oh right it's David Beller. One of the articles I read congratulating David had some strange spellings of his name, something you would think would be checked. I also heard from those that attended USITT it was announced as Davie Beller. Maybe they will do better next time.
