Represented

Jaymee incorporates a deep sense of self-awareness in everything she is involved in. This often comes out when she works on her craft as a screen actor. As a youth, Jaymee had to learn to cope with her mental health which forced her to get to know herself better. Ultimately, Jaymee draws strength from her battles. Now, as a budding filmmaker in Greater Vancouver, Jaymee continues to uncover the lengths to which she can stretch her talents in the buzzing Vancouver film industry.

This is the final episode of Represented's first season. Nyex will be back later this year to begin a new season of Represented.

Lucid aka Robert was our very first guest on the podcast, and we were fortunate enough to have a second catch-up session with him after his very first live performance in Vancouver a few weeks ago.

This time around we explored Lucid's creative process in more depth while getting a peek into the mind of the creator.
