  • Becoming an Actor Later in Life, The Holdovers and the Importance of Being Creative While Your Young - Liz Bishop

    This week I could not be more excited to introduce you to our next guest. @bizlishop is an actor of many talents, from commercial and print, to voiceover, to on screen work and most recently her appearance in the Oscar Nominated film @theholdoversfilm Liz has basically done it all.

    In this very special episode we break down our thoughts on supportive vs unsupportive parents (As seen in the clip above). How Liz personally was affected by the most recent WGA and SAG strikes from the past year. What it was like for us to work together on my short film Broken Petals and also what it was like working with Alexander Payne as a director.

    Did you know that Liz took a 40-year break before deciding to pursue the arts permanently? Well then you will want to listen in.

    Believe me when I say that as an actor and colleague of Liz this is probably the most excited I have been to release an episode of the Artists and Emotions Podcast.

  • Being a Creative in Los Angeles - Sophie Jordan Collins

    Welcome to the Artists and Emotions Podcast - A weekly discussion about being a creative, hard working person and the mental health journey that we as creatives are continuously on.

    Sophie Jordan Collins is an award winning actress, content creator and host of the Acting Like An Actor Podcast, who just so happens to live in Los Angeles.


    She is a very busy woman and was kind enough to stop by the show to talk about her experience. Together we talk about the trouble with being a type A personality and finding rest in and amongst all of the work we are trying to create. We dive into what it is like to be someone with an eating disorder pursuing the arts (Because we have both been there) and finally we discuss what each of us is currently doing to go after our goals this year.



    TRIGGER WARNING:

    This Episode contains subject matter about mental health and strong language. If this is something you are uncomfortable with I do not recommend listening to this episode of the podcast.

  • Burnout - Burnout - Burnout with Lexee Gordoun

    Welcome to the Artists and Emotions Podcast - A weekly discussion about being a creative, hard working person and the mental health journey that we as creatives are continuously on.
    This week we have a very special surprise. We have a returning guest. Say hello and welcome back to Lexee Gordoun!


    Lexee is a director, filmmaker, writer and producer from Australia. Last time we talked about the business and hustle side of the entertainment industry. This time we discuss the fact that Lexee has been on a break for about 3-4 months and the rest and peace of mind it has given her.


    We also go deep into the negative effects of burnout if you refuse to allow yourself to make being a creative person a lifestyle and allowing yourself to live the most fulfilling creative life you can while also making it enjoyable along the way.


    Sit back, relax and enjoy the conversation, you may even learn new ways that you can take care of yourself.

  • Hustle, UK Acting and A Holistic Lifestyle with Sam Ford

    WELCOME BACK!!!


    This week I have a very special guest, as this is someone who I have not met in person or over a video conference session. Sam Ford is a performing artist from London in the United Kingdom. He has had a world of experience in the performance arts space.


    Sam and I discuss his time performing in Japan, where he not only met his wife, but also when he proposed to her. We get into his initial interest in voice acting and why he has since backed away from it and much much more.


    Believe me when I say that if you are someone currently in the industry, are looking to start acting, or just like listening to good conversations with cool people you will not want to miss this.

  • Artists and Emotions - Sarah Massey - Part Two - Freelancing, Post-Production Editing and Believing in Yourself

    Welcome to the Artists and Emotions Podcast - A weekly discussion about being a creative, hard working person and the mental health journey that we as creatives are continuously on.
    This week we are back with freelancer, director of photography and filmmaker Sarah Massey. It was such a joy talking to her that we needed to extend Sarah's discussion to a second portion.


    This week we go more in depth in terms of talking about the freelance market and the work that goes into it. We talk everything from the world of post production and the disrespect that film editor's receive, the cost of being a creative and the sacrifices you have to make if you wish to pursue it professionally and most importantly we talk about Sarah's wonderful feature documentary - CREATE OR DIE - which will be released at the end of this month.


    Sarah is a dear friend and it has been a pleasure getting to talk to her.


    Just like last week there is no trigger warning.


    So sit back, relax and enjoy.

  • Artists and Emotions - Talking the Struggle of Film Freelancing with Sarah Massey - Part One

    Welcome to the Artists and Emotions Podcast - A weekly discussion about being a creative, hard working person and the mental health journey that we as creatives are continuously on.
    This week I sit across from director, writer, director of photography, editor and actor Sarah Massey. She also happens to be a very good friend of Mine.


    We discuss her love of filmmaking, what her first camera was and how she went from wanting to tell stories to working on five different film related projects over the course of a year. Our conversation goes on to discuss our irritations and the reality of freelancing for creative work.


    This is the longest conversation yet and thus has been split between two episodes. The second part will be released next week.


    There is no TRIGGER WARNING needed for this particular episode.


    Sit back relax and enjoy.
