Multiple Emmy and IDA award-winning filmmaker Erik Nelson has produced and directed a wide
range of feature documentaries for his company ‘Creative Differences’. Some of his producing credits include GRIZZLY MAN, CAVE OF FORGOTTEN DREAMS, INTO THE ABYSS, and the Oscar-nominated ENCOUNTERS AT THE END OF THE WORLD.
In his latest film, DAYTIME REVOLUTION, Erik takes us back in time to the week that John Lennon and Yoko Ono descended upon a Philadelphia broadcasting studio to co-host the iconic Mike Douglas Show, at the time the most popular show on daytime television with an audience of 40 million viewers a week.
In this interview, we talk about his approach to storytelling, the documentary production process, his views on collaboration, his film DAYTIME REVOLUTION, and more.
