We will listen. We want to hear it here.

Most often, rejection slips are business decisions, not artistic decisions.

Studio Eight is not a business.

We want to read, hear, view and admire your work and listen to your submission stories.

100% correct, I've seen some fantastic work rejected, and some absolute dross accepted, so I would implore anyone who is rejected to try and not take it to heart.

I know that is harder than it sounds but please be aware the desicion will almost certainly have been made for financial/bussiness reasons, and should no way be seen as a reflection of your ability.

If you have the passion, the drive, the determination, and the inner calling to perform, or create, in any media, then stick to it, && don't let the men in suits grind you down.

This subject is touched upon in my thread "Orphic Records" in the music forum, where you can read a little more about some of the reasons behind rejections in the music industry (and you will find that the reasons are often very similar in other arts too).
