  • 63. How to be a successful film maker with John Wayne S. III

    In this episode, you learn all the practical steps to be successful in the film industry. 

    John's bio  

    John Wayne began his career in the entertainment industry over two decades ago. He got his start working on an independent film in the Art department as a PA. The film was director/producer George Tillman's (Soul Food, Barber Shop & Men of Honor) first film "Scenes for the Soul". After the production wrapped, he continued to work with George and his partner Robert Teitel on music videos and other projects. Shortly after that, Wayne partnered with a local director to produce music videos. They started out shooting low-budget music videos for small labels. This venture proved quite successful, they moved from producing music videos in 35mm film for $5,000 to budgets quickly escalating.  During this time he went to work as a publicist for Grammy-nominated music producer Steve "Silk" Hurley. He started once again off with little to no experience as a publicist and during his 3-year stint, became Director of International A&R. He set up and oversaw offices/agents in the United Kingdom and Japan. He facilitated distribution, production, publishing, artist, and record deals around the world. While at Silk, Wayne gained many contacts and built strong relationships. During this time he started JWS Productions Inc to produce music videos and TV commercials. Over the past decade, John Wayne has produced/directed over 200 music videos and 70 television commercials  

    John's latest film project  Ebony Hustle is about an ex-stripper turned private investigator. You can view information on the film at www.EbonyHustle.com. The film is currently available on Tubi, Amazon, Vudu, Sling, Peacock, and Hoopla. The soundtrack and score to the film are available on all music and social media platforms.

  • 59.How to speak your mind online (with no regrets) with Greg Lacy

    In this episode, we are speaking with Greg Lacy from the 'Speak my p.eace podcast'.  Greg Lacy, host of the Speak My Peace Podcast, was raised in Compton, California. Up until his graduating high school he dedicated the majority of his life to playing basketball in hopes of one day realizing his dream of playing in college. However, while in high-school he soon learned those plans weren't going to pan out due to lack of preparation. So, he shifted his focus to enlisting in the military serving a term in the US Air Force.     After serving in the Air Force, Greg then revisited the idea of returning to school where he eventually earned a Bachelor's degree in Communications from St. John’s University - New York.  It was at St. John’s where the idea to start a podcast was formulated, realizing he had various topics he wanted to share his thoughts on but had no outlet to do so. Upon graduating from St. John's Greg returned home to Los Angeles where he began working as an Integrated Media Planner. During this time he has continued to grow his podcast speaking on a broad range of topics mostly centered around the idea of the experiences of Black people.

  • 58.How to get amazing PR as a creative! With Sherise Ford 'Six-Feet Publicist'

    In this episode, we look at how to promote yourself as a creative, also, how to network intentionally.   

    Sherise's  Ford bio:  It all started as a pitch to Courvoisier. By the end of the conversation, Los Angeles native, SheRise Ford was in the door. The then actress, singer, and model landed the deal that opened the doors of her Beverly Hills boutique public relations firm, The SheRise Enterprise.  Since opening her doors, Ford has worked with a number of celebrities and brand partners on media consulting, event management/production, music video casting, public relations consulting, and social media management.  

     Her projects included providing media relations to rapper, businessman, Master P. and his son Romeo. Under her helm, the “It’s Time Kids,” an exercise campaign featuring Master P. and Romeo, was spotlighted on the Wendy’s Williams Show.  As a publicist for Will Claye, Olympic medalist, Ford coordinated his album release party for,  Look What You Created, in partnership with Red Bull and Hip Hop DX.  

    Ford, affectionately known as, “The Six-Foot Publicist,” has worked with Teck Holmes of Cartoon Network, cast film, and music videos for renowned artists — Charlie Wilson, Johnny Gil, and 21 Savage.  Recently, she worked as a producer with director Phillip Jackson on the Beats by Dre Olympic campaign, starring track and field sprinter Sha’Carri Richardson.   When she’s not consulting, Ford devotes a lot of her time to content development and is known to collaborate with a slew of podcast hosts. She is also a Los Angeles government official where she serves as a community activist and President of the North Hollywood North East Neighborhood Council.
