This episode is fast and furious (see what we did there?) with the legendary Max Fuerst who owns the fastest camera car in Texas. Max, with a skateboarder background much like our host Joey Nicotra, got introduced to film via his passion for fast cars. Max unpacks how he came up in the industry from creating a company, to selling his share and starting a new media and experience agency called the Wolf Pack Agency (best name ever). Find out what it takes to be a camera car owner and operator as well as how his filmmaking journey has had bumps and turns but ended up, in our opinion, taking first place.

On this episode of The Rough Cut Club, Corey gives tons of insight on what it takes to make it in the industry from feature film funding to distribution. We were honored to have Corey on our podcast as our first official guest and still can't believe he just jumped out of a building "winging it" for a stunt.
