Today’s guest on the Hometown Hollywood Podcast is Wilson Lemieux, Executive Producer and Director at his properly named, Lemieux Company in Amarillo Texas.

Wilson is someone I knew I had to get on the show because if you know him at all, you know he is the embodiment of what this show is all about. He’s making the film dream happen in his own home town by doing incredible work that can compete with the best. I loved getting to hear his story and I was inspired by his confidence in himself and his team. You can tell in the interview that his relationships with others mean everything to him and he invests a lot in other people. As a little note, before we started recording the interview we hadn't been talking for more than 5 minutes and he was already giving me encouragement and advice that I really needed to hear, and I believe that speaks a lot about his character.

In this interview you’ll learn about how to start a company with $600 to your name, going from 1 man band DSLR shoots to full-crew, big-budget productions in one year, the best freaking bodyshop ad you will ever see, how working in a small town can actually present you with an accelerated opportunity for growth, the importance of Gushers on set, how to be intentional in your work and family, and the importance of building a team and letting your hitters hit. Whew.

If you get to the end of this podcast and don’t understand how important it is to invest in the relationships you have with other people, then you have completely missed the point. I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.
