  • 07 - How I Got Started Pt 3 (Junior & Senior Year)
    2010-2011: In my Junior and Senior year in film school, I switched majors from Editing to Screenwriting. I learned the fundamentals of storytelling from my most influential professor, and got dragged into producing not 1, but 2, over-ambitious and disastrous Senior thesis films.

  • 06 - How I Got Started Pt. 2 (Freshman to Sophmore Year)

    In 2007, I followed dreams to become an "auteur" movie director. But in the first two years at Film School, my major shifted to Editing. I also produced a disastrous short film that gave me a crash-course in financing, contracts, and dealing with difficult people.

    SHOW NOTES:

    "Bounce Back" - A short film I made in an editing class. Still pretty charmed by it.

  • 05 - How I Got Started Pt. 1 (The Navy Years)

  • 04 - Should You Do A Podcast?

    Trying to find the RIGHT type of content to promote your personal or professional "brand"? For many, podcasts can be an awesome outlet... unless... you get bogged down with worries about equipment, booking guests, editing, and graphics. Here's how I got it started after 2.5 years of "thinkin' about it." And why I keep it raw and simple.

  • 02 - Importance of "Repeat-Backs"

    As in-house marketers, we often have to aggregate feedback from multiple team members. Feedback that is fraught with contradiction, incomplete thoughts, confusion, and missed-nuances. It isn't your team member's job to clarify things - ITS YOURS! So here is one way that I have learned to organize and deal with multiple streams of feedback.
