Arts marketing: 10:15.
Hello! Watch Born To Be Blue (2015) by next Monday's podcast, where we'll talk about Chet Baker and this particular cinematic portrayal of him. Watch the movie this week and feel free to send a voice memo with your thoughts to: andrew(at)onecountyfilm.com
23. DIY vs Hiring Help
The benefits of both. This week I reflect on recording songs with a music producer, an experience I've never had reflected for independent film projects. As artists we do a lot of things independently for budgetary reasons, but in this episode I unpack the way full logistical burdens can taint our ability to experience our creative projects to the fullest.

18. Mexican Surrealism & American Ambition: The Magical Life of "Frida"
17. Dear Artist, Do Whatever You Want
A call to action to be yourself! Yes, yes, common knowledge. But our self-conscious interior (that often auto-corrects to satisfy others) deserves the reminder. Whether you want to go social-media-crazy to grow your career or shave your head and move to Oklahoma, I say do whatever it is you feel burning inside of you and disregard any opinions that contradict that. Watch Frida (2002) this week and send your thoughts as audio to andrew(at)onecountyfilm.com. Or at least watch the film! The next two episodes covering it are entertaining. Thank you all for listening, it means a lot! :)
16. Ditch Your Dreams & Set Specific Goals
Your work will not be perfect! Not even that next project. Between optimism and pessimism is realism—which should entail a set of small actionable steps that accomplish specific goals. It may sound like common sense but is incredibly important (and easily forgettable) in your volatile artistic career. This week we wrap up our conversation with actor Esteban Dager.

8. When To Throw In The Towel: "Inside Llewyn Davis"
Musician Sean Sele joins me to discuss "Inside Llewyn Davis," a 2013 film by the Coen Brothers that follows a folk-singer in 1961 New York City. It's dark humor, themes of personal turmoil and faint glimmers of artistic success pertain to our own quest to fashion meaning in a world that gives your work a shrug. When do you quit such a task, and throw in the towel for good?
Guests also include Steven Day and Cam Glass.
