Mike Thomas, Vice President of Production for Turner Original Productions offers advice on getting into the creative world and tells about his rules for getting and keeping a job. He says that it's important to make sure that you are having fun at what you do. He also explains that 'Nice Trumps Good' when it comes to success. People who get laid off first are the ones who can't get along with other people. Mike spends an hour with a group of students at Atlanta's Grady High School for Gradytalks.info.
