Today’s guest is someone whose artistry truly transforms stories! Emmy-winning makeup artist Rebecca Lee!

Rebecca took home an Emmy for her breathtaking work on Shōgun, and she’s now nominated again for The Last of Us Season 2. From designing Ellie’s iconic tattoo to creating the chilling scars and infected, her work brings unforgettable realism and depth to every character.

I can’t wait for you to hear her journey, her process, and the magic that happens when storytelling meets makeup artistry. Here’s my conversation with Rebecca Lee.

Michael Shawever's work as an editor has left a mark on some powerful films of our time, Creed, Black Panther, A Quiet Place Part II, and now the gripping new hit SINNERS. HIs ability to shape story, rhythm, and emotion from behind the scenes is a true art form. 

Today’s guest is the incredibly talented actor and writer, Chelsea Debo. Originally from Ohio, she moved to LA at 17 and has built a standout career with roles in Bull, Dead Wrong with Rob Schneider, and the wild film Free LSD starring Jack Black.

If you're in LA, don’t miss her one-act sci-fi thriller PHOENIX at the Hollywood Fringe Fest. It opens June 9th at the Activist Kitchen and runs just 35 minutes. Go see her in action! 

Social media can be a chaotic and overwhelming space, but it also has the power to connect us with incredible artists we might not have discovered otherwise. That’s exactly how I came across Attawalpa (Luis Felber)! A one-of-a-kind musician who writes, produces, and plays his own music. His sound is captivating, with tracks like ‘Always the Girls’ and his upcoming release ‘Hilarious in Love’ dropping March 21st. Beyond his own music, he’s also made waves in film, executive producing the soundtrack for Catherine Called Birdy and composing for Sharp Stick. Excited to dive into his journey and creative process!

On this episode, I sit down with film director Elliott Lester, known for his award-winning movie Nightingale. We’ll dive into his latest film, The Thicket, a gripping story starring Peter Dinklage and Juliette Lewis, which has already earned a Saturn Award nomination. Tune in to hear about his journey, creative process, and what’s next for this talented filmmaker!

Adam Dee is a one of a kind human! So genuine and incredibly talented in costume design! You'll listen to his astonishing journey and how he became part of the Heartstopper series! There are some really heartfelt conversations that will leave you in awe! 

Kerrice Brooks is authentic, refreshing, funny, and charismatic. They are going places! They star in one the best coming of age films, My Old Ass. It is written and directed by Megan Park, featuring Maisy Stella, Aubrey Plaza, and Maddie Ziegler. Kerrice plays Ro who is just a fun loving bestie who keeps it real. This movie will have you laugh, cry, and reflect on your life and you will want to watch this over and over again.

Matuse is making a name for himself starring in two huge movies this year playing Fang in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga and Dune in The Fall Guy starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt. Matuse knew he wanted to be an actor ever since he saw Jim Carey in Ace Ventura and by the time he was about 10 years old he wrote his first script. Being from Southern Sydney Australia, he didn't see much representation of people like him in film and tv, but he is now on the journey of becoming that representation and inspiring others. He has a beautiful outlook on life, so much wisdom, and is a goal getter to say the least. What a pleasure getting to speak with a profound human. Ryan Gosling and George Miller have spoken highly of him and I know exactly why when speaking with Matuse.

Charlene Akuamoah is doing big things in the film industry with her keen eye for fashion. She is a magnificent costume designer who has traveled the world, got her first internship at Valentino, and is currently on set for a new show, BET coming to Netflix soon! Find her work in Avocado Toast the series, Robyn Hood, V/H/S94, and more! 

Liverpool actor, Alicia Forde was discovered during a play and from there she soon had her breakout role on the hit show Waterloo Road playing, Kelly Jo. I personally discovered Alicia from the BAFTA winning drama series, Time (series 2) directed by Andrea Harkin which stars, Jodie Whitaker, Tamara Lawrence, and Bella Ramsey. Time series 2 is set in a women's prison and you get see the intense journeys of each women navigating their life through it all. Alicia plays Sarah who is a very mysterious character and doesn't have the best intentions for others.
