<v Speaker 2>being part of that group. And then I became kind

0:04:06.640 --> 0:04:09.560
<v Speaker 2>of friends with all the people in the Yale newsroom

0:04:09.600 --> 0:04:09.880
<v Speaker 2>as well.

0:04:10.200 --> 0:04:14.000

0:04:14.000 --> 0:04:16.840
<v Speaker 1>the writers from Yale Daily News. Were you who were

0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:19.920

0:04:22.960 --> 0:04:25.400
<v Speaker 2>Putty was really cool. Amy Sloan was really cool. I

0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:28.400
<v Speaker 2>would say Rona was the person that I became the

0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:33.720
<v Speaker 2>biggest friends with. Rona Benson. Yeah, I became a photographer

0:04:33.760 --> 0:04:36.200
<v Speaker 2>and was a been a photographer for a really long time,

0:04:36.200 --> 0:04:39.760

0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:43.960
<v Speaker 1>Well, there's nothing that says friendship more than allowing somebody

0:04:44.000 --> 0:04:49.159
<v Speaker 1>to take your head shots. What was your favorite part

0:04:49.440 --> 0:04:53.040
<v Speaker 1>of working in that newsroom?

0:04:53.600 --> 0:04:57.320
<v Speaker 2>You know, I love the tone of the show because

0:04:57.320 --> 0:05:01.760
<v Speaker 2>it was just such a challenge that it was just unique,

0:05:01.960 --> 0:05:06.480
<v Speaker 2>like a unique acting challenge, so always being like no,

0:05:06.760 --> 0:05:10.920
<v Speaker 2>having my lines down and and and knowing uh when

0:05:10.960 --> 0:05:13.359
<v Speaker 2>to jump in and you know, actually one of my

0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:15.960
<v Speaker 2>favorite things to be part of that show were the

0:05:16.000 --> 0:05:22.000
<v Speaker 2>different directors. I I liked to see how different directors

0:05:22.080 --> 0:05:25.600
<v Speaker 2>on each episode would come in and bring there and

0:05:25.680 --> 0:05:30.480
<v Speaker 2>do the choreography of the blocking and the dialogue and

0:05:30.520 --> 0:05:35.120
<v Speaker 2>everything and kind of have to jump in.

0:05:36.880 --> 0:05:37.080
<v Speaker 1>Too.

0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:40.360
<v Speaker 2>And like especially Kenny Artega that was that was a

0:05:40.400 --> 0:05:43.080
<v Speaker 2>really cool episode to see him like everything became like

0:05:43.120 --> 0:05:45.720
<v Speaker 2>a dance and and the blocking of choreography with the

0:05:45.760 --> 0:05:48.000
<v Speaker 2>camera and it was it was all really cool to watch.

0:05:49.200 --> 0:05:52.200
<v Speaker 2>But the camaraderie as well was was awesome, you know,

0:05:52.680 --> 0:05:54.960
<v Speaker 2>meeting a bunch of cool people that were that became

0:05:55.000 --> 0:05:59.600
<v Speaker 2>friends and and and acting in a on a kind

0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:00.560
<v Speaker 2>of really cool show.

0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:01.040
<v Speaker 1>I was.

0:06:01.200 --> 0:06:03.960
<v Speaker 2>I was happy to happy to participate.

0:06:04.640 --> 0:06:07.800
<v Speaker 1>What a concept. Huh, get paid to go make friends

0:06:08.040 --> 0:06:09.800
<v Speaker 1>and do stuff you like to do.

0:06:10.680 --> 0:06:15.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, after after cleaning pools and doing all kinds

0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:16.640
<v Speaker 2>of other odd jobs.

0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:21.600
<v Speaker 1>So did you prefer when Paris was editor or Rory?

0:06:22.040 --> 0:06:24.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean, what what what was more fun to be

0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:25.400
<v Speaker 1>a part of.

0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:30.479
<v Speaker 2>I think it was more stressful when Rory was was

0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:33.320
<v Speaker 2>the editor, and then when Rory it was just a

0:06:33.360 --> 0:06:36.440
<v Speaker 2>bunch more of a supportive environment. You know, it's just

0:06:36.480 --> 0:06:38.720
<v Speaker 2>a different there's just a different environment. One was more

0:06:38.880 --> 0:06:41.520
<v Speaker 2>One was definitely a lot more hectic and stressful. Did

0:06:42.600 --> 0:06:43.760
<v Speaker 2>she was a bit of a tyrant?

0:06:43.839 --> 0:06:46.200
<v Speaker 1>Right? Did you get to know Lies a little bit?

0:06:46.320 --> 0:06:51.279
<v Speaker 2>Or or alexis a little bit not not more than

0:06:51.440 --> 0:06:56.280
<v Speaker 2>off off out of the studio, you know, but all

0:06:56.320 --> 0:06:59.000
<v Speaker 2>the all the people that were my friends in the

0:06:59.000 --> 0:07:02.240
<v Speaker 2>newsroom I was, I were friends with them for sure.

0:07:02.480 --> 0:07:06.400
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, like Rory and Wise, I definitely just saw

0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:09.440
<v Speaker 2>when I when I was there filming, and they were

0:07:09.640 --> 0:07:10.559
<v Speaker 2>extremely nice.

0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:14.280
<v Speaker 1>Did you guys go across the street to that watering

0:07:14.320 --> 0:07:19.200
<v Speaker 1>hole together and throw a couple back and reminiscent reminisce

0:07:19.240 --> 0:07:19.680
<v Speaker 1>on the day.

0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:24.960
<v Speaker 2>It doesn't sound familiar, but I mean we might have. Yeah,

0:07:25.280 --> 0:07:29.280
<v Speaker 2>I might have just blacked out from throwing a few back.

0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:31.320
<v Speaker 1>What was the name of that What was the name

0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:38.280
<v Speaker 1>of that place that famous? Gosh, it escapes me anyway,

0:07:38.520 --> 0:07:43.800
<v Speaker 1>It says here that you got discovered at Bob's Big

0:07:43.880 --> 0:07:48.920
<v Speaker 1>Boy Hamburger restaurant at six years old. Yeah, what were

0:07:48.960 --> 0:07:52.480
<v Speaker 1>you doing? And what? You must have been the most

0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:53.720
<v Speaker 1>magnetic child.

0:07:54.640 --> 0:07:56.680
<v Speaker 2>I really was, Honestly, I was. I was a very

0:07:56.720 --> 0:07:58.360
<v Speaker 2>cute kid and there was a lot of personality.

0:07:59.000 --> 0:08:00.960
<v Speaker 1>Okay, tell us about that.

0:08:01.040 --> 0:08:04.920
<v Speaker 2>I was with my family, obviously, I was six, and

0:08:05.520 --> 0:08:08.200
<v Speaker 2>I think a manager was sitting at another booth and

0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:11.040
<v Speaker 2>just like started, you know, like making eyes of me

0:08:11.080 --> 0:08:14.120
<v Speaker 2>and like seeing what if I would you know, play

0:08:14.160 --> 0:08:16.240
<v Speaker 2>back or whatever, and then came over to my family

0:08:16.280 --> 0:08:18.600
<v Speaker 2>and said, this kid is too cute and has a

0:08:18.600 --> 0:08:20.720
<v Speaker 2>great person and needs to be in the movies. And

0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:23.120
<v Speaker 2>you know, my family had never thought of anything like

0:08:23.160 --> 0:08:25.240
<v Speaker 2>that before. So they asked me if I wanted to

0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:28.200
<v Speaker 2>do it, and I said, I'm sure, let's try it.

0:08:28.480 --> 0:08:30.640
<v Speaker 2>So they took me to an agent, and the agent

0:08:30.720 --> 0:08:33.000
<v Speaker 2>wasn't sure if she wanted to represent me, and so

0:08:33.080 --> 0:08:34.240
<v Speaker 2>she was like, all right, I'll send you out on

0:08:34.280 --> 0:08:34.840
<v Speaker 2>an audition.

0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:37.960
<v Speaker 1>What the heck was her problem? What was the agent's problem?

0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:41.240
<v Speaker 2>I think I just had like a lack of focus.

0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:44.640
<v Speaker 2>I just I mean, I wasn't the typical you know

0:08:45.160 --> 0:08:48.320
<v Speaker 2>kid actor. That was just I am dying to be

0:08:48.360 --> 0:08:50.600
<v Speaker 2>a star or anything. You're six years old?

0:08:50.760 --> 0:08:53.760
<v Speaker 1>Well you were kind of focused. Did they expect exactly?

0:08:53.840 --> 0:08:54.320
<v Speaker 2>So? Are you?

0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:56.880
<v Speaker 1>Don't cut it? You don't have focus, You're sex You

0:08:56.960 --> 0:09:01.160
<v Speaker 1>need to be focused. What is that eight? Did you

0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:04.000
<v Speaker 1>just say take a look at me, Look at.

0:09:03.760 --> 0:09:06.680
<v Speaker 2>Me, look at this. How can you pass on this?

0:09:07.720 --> 0:09:10.200
<v Speaker 1>It got me out of Bob's big boy, you know.

0:09:10.280 --> 0:09:11.360
<v Speaker 1>It got me in the door.

0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:14.920
<v Speaker 2>And then I booked my first audition. So as soon

0:09:14.960 --> 0:09:20.439
<v Speaker 2>as I booked that, she was ready with papers to sign. Yeah. Man,

0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:23.640
<v Speaker 2>it was Doogie Howser, Doogey Howser. I played him as

0:09:23.640 --> 0:09:25.920
<v Speaker 2>a six year old in a flashback.

0:09:26.040 --> 0:09:28.760
<v Speaker 1>Oh right, but she wasn't sure whether you can handle

0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:31.840
<v Speaker 1>it because of your focus. But here you are playing

0:09:31.840 --> 0:09:33.800
<v Speaker 1>through the house. Okay. Yeah.

0:09:33.800 --> 0:09:35.800
<v Speaker 2>As soon as I book it, yeah, then she then

0:09:35.840 --> 0:09:36.600
<v Speaker 2>she's all over it.

0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:37.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:38.800
<v Speaker 2>And then I just never stopped working. I was just

0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:43.040
<v Speaker 2>I did a ton of pilots and commercials and little

0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:45.920
<v Speaker 2>little movie parts and bunch of like, uh, you know,

0:09:46.679 --> 0:09:47.920
<v Speaker 2>guest stars and things like that.

0:09:48.120 --> 0:09:52.040
<v Speaker 1>Would you recommend a young children getting involved in this business?

0:09:52.320 --> 0:09:54.679
<v Speaker 1>Did it mess your head up a little bit? Or

0:09:54.720 --> 0:09:57.120
<v Speaker 1>were you at all level headed and could deal with

0:09:57.200 --> 0:09:57.760
<v Speaker 1>it and all.

0:09:57.760 --> 0:10:02.240
<v Speaker 2>That My family was really cool about it. They were

0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:04.240
<v Speaker 2>always like, hey, if you never want if you want

0:10:04.280 --> 0:10:05.840
<v Speaker 2>to stop doing this, let's stop.

0:10:06.320 --> 0:10:06.520
<v Speaker 1>You know.

0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:09.880
<v Speaker 2>They never were never pressuring me. So to me, it

0:10:09.920 --> 0:10:13.679
<v Speaker 2>really depends on the family and the kid. If there

0:10:13.720 --> 0:10:15.680
<v Speaker 2>are some kids that are just magic and they're born

0:10:15.720 --> 0:10:18.079
<v Speaker 2>to do this, so you know they so and they

0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:19.840
<v Speaker 2>want to do it, but then there are something that

0:10:19.880 --> 0:10:23.280
<v Speaker 2>the parents are just like forcing them to be little stars.

0:10:23.840 --> 0:10:26.199
<v Speaker 2>So it just really depends.

0:10:27.440 --> 0:10:30.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I guess it all comes down to family. Yeah.

0:10:30.760 --> 0:10:34.600
<v Speaker 2>I never got like, I never got exposed to drugs

0:10:34.600 --> 0:10:37.439
<v Speaker 2>and a bunch of bad people or anything like that.

0:10:37.760 --> 0:10:39.959
<v Speaker 2>You know. I was always pretty grounded in my family,

0:10:40.559 --> 0:10:43.520
<v Speaker 2>get me as levelheaded as possible. If I ever said

0:10:43.720 --> 0:10:45.520
<v Speaker 2>anything that was like whoa, you're getting a little too

0:10:45.520 --> 0:10:47.920
<v Speaker 2>big for your bridges, they shut it down pretty quickly,

0:10:48.760 --> 0:10:49.400
<v Speaker 2>right right, right.

0:10:49.840 --> 0:10:53.880
<v Speaker 1>So you were born and raised in Los Angeles.

0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:55.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm a unicorn.

0:10:55.679 --> 0:10:59.080
<v Speaker 1>And what does that mean?

0:10:59.280 --> 0:11:01.920
<v Speaker 2>That just means everyone in Los Angeles is a transplant.

0:11:02.920 --> 0:11:06.200
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, I'm actually one of those that's been born

0:11:06.240 --> 0:11:07.559
<v Speaker 2>and raised in LA.

0:11:07.679 --> 0:11:08.440
<v Speaker 1>Okay, gotcha?

0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:08.800
<v Speaker 2>Uh?

0:11:08.960 --> 0:11:12.440
<v Speaker 1>And you started so young? Uh? Did you go to

0:11:12.520 --> 0:11:15.360
<v Speaker 1>school with a lot of other kids that were actors

0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:16.239
<v Speaker 1>as well.

0:11:16.400 --> 0:11:18.760
<v Speaker 2>Like, what was the percentage I did? When I got

0:11:18.800 --> 0:11:21.160
<v Speaker 2>a little bit older, I went to a high school

0:11:21.280 --> 0:11:24.760
<v Speaker 2>where Romney Malick went to school, and uh and pierced

0:11:24.760 --> 0:11:28.640
<v Speaker 2>the Dunst. So yeah, So at a certain point then

0:11:28.640 --> 0:11:30.880
<v Speaker 2>I was like, okay, well, most of the kids that

0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:33.160
<v Speaker 2>were in the industry were either like in the really

0:11:33.679 --> 0:11:36.400
<v Speaker 2>I end schools and never there because they were always filming,

0:11:36.720 --> 0:11:39.320
<v Speaker 2>or they were homeschool right.

0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:42.840
<v Speaker 1>So so that was a school just for sort of

0:11:43.440 --> 0:11:45.080
<v Speaker 1>kids that were working in the industry.

0:11:45.520 --> 0:11:47.440
<v Speaker 2>No, no, it was a private Catholic school and they

0:11:47.480 --> 0:11:48.880
<v Speaker 2>just they just happened to be going there.

0:11:49.240 --> 0:11:51.960
<v Speaker 1>Oh okay, all right, so now you're in you're not

0:11:52.600 --> 0:11:56.520
<v Speaker 1>as acting as much, right, that's right, transitioned into a

0:11:56.559 --> 0:12:05.080
<v Speaker 1>successful career as a photographer. Uh, that's so. I'd always interested, you.

0:12:03.840 --> 0:12:06.439
<v Speaker 2>You know, it was something that you know, I had

0:12:06.480 --> 0:12:08.760
<v Speaker 2>a little bit of a lull in my twenties when

0:12:08.840 --> 0:12:12.400
<v Speaker 2>I was acting and looking for odd jobs and things.

0:12:12.400 --> 0:12:14.000
<v Speaker 2>And my girlfriend at the time.

0:12:13.840 --> 0:12:17.760
<v Speaker 3>Now my wife, was was going to USC and asked

0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:21.800
<v Speaker 3>if I wanted to do a curricular extracurricular class with

0:12:21.880 --> 0:12:24.800
<v Speaker 3>her to go to do photo one on one, and

0:12:24.840 --> 0:12:27.440
<v Speaker 3>I just took that class with her and said sure,

0:12:27.440 --> 0:12:29.679
<v Speaker 3>why not And I ended up loving it and then

0:12:29.840 --> 0:12:32.520
<v Speaker 3>was doing photography and acting for a long time, but

0:12:32.559 --> 0:12:35.720
<v Speaker 3>then then ultimately made the big jump over to photography.

0:12:36.080 --> 0:12:39.840
<v Speaker 1>So you you've shot some album covers or record covers.

0:12:40.280 --> 0:12:42.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I've shot some album covers. I've I've shot the

0:12:43.040 --> 0:12:47.160
<v Speaker 2>key art on on some podcasts and some movies and

0:12:48.040 --> 0:12:48.520
<v Speaker 2>different things.

0:12:48.600 --> 0:12:50.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, who are the bands?

0:12:51.200 --> 0:12:53.120
<v Speaker 2>Who are the bands? I mean one of the guys

0:12:53.120 --> 0:12:55.520
<v Speaker 2>I I was Kanye back in two thousand and seven.

0:12:56.040 --> 0:12:59.319
<v Speaker 1>Really, yeah, Kanye, Yeah, Kanye.

0:12:59.840 --> 0:13:03.200
<v Speaker 2>I had a mentor at the time, Mino Polouse and

0:13:03.200 --> 0:13:07.240
<v Speaker 2>and he uh offered me this job going to Chicago

0:13:07.320 --> 0:13:09.760
<v Speaker 2>to follow Kanye around shooting him while he did a

0:13:09.800 --> 0:13:13.320
<v Speaker 2>P S. A and uh and man, that was that

0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:14.800
<v Speaker 2>was an experience for sure.

0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:17.280
<v Speaker 1>You know, there's a there's a rumor going around that

0:13:17.440 --> 0:13:20.720
<v Speaker 1>if you win an award around Kanye, he's gonna take

0:13:20.760 --> 0:13:23.040
<v Speaker 1>it away from you. Oh for sure. Yeah, you gotta

0:13:23.080 --> 0:13:24.320
<v Speaker 1>be you gotta be careful of that.

0:13:24.800 --> 0:13:27.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's almost like you got to pay your dues

0:13:27.640 --> 0:13:29.960
<v Speaker 2>and and hope hopefully that happens. That's probably good luck

0:13:30.040 --> 0:13:30.280
<v Speaker 2>with that.

0:13:30.520 --> 0:13:33.440
<v Speaker 1>You you better you better be careful that Beyonce is

0:13:33.480 --> 0:13:37.079
<v Speaker 1>not in the same category or else you're getting charged.

0:13:37.720 --> 0:13:39.880
<v Speaker 2>Sure, but she should have won that for sure.

0:13:46.120 --> 0:13:49.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm having a little Kanye paranoia. Not that I'm nominated

0:13:49.360 --> 0:13:52.960
<v Speaker 1>for anything, but if I ever was, I'd be, Oh yeah,

0:13:53.080 --> 0:13:56.160
<v Speaker 1>i'd be I'd make sure what to watch my six man?

0:13:59.840 --> 0:14:03.240
<v Speaker 1>Uh uh so so a lot of what you learned,

0:14:03.559 --> 0:14:08.520
<v Speaker 1>uh in photography? Did being on set help or inform

0:14:08.760 --> 0:14:11.240
<v Speaker 1>your your photograph photographic vision?

0:14:11.640 --> 0:14:14.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? I mean it really just made me not really

0:14:14.880 --> 0:14:18.720
<v Speaker 2>starstruck so much when I would shoot with celebrities. No,

0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:21.840
<v Speaker 2>it was like, like, yes, these people are people too,

0:14:21.880 --> 0:14:22.240
<v Speaker 2>So if.

0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:23.800
<v Speaker 1>You weren't getting what you wanted at him, you just

0:14:23.840 --> 0:14:25.640
<v Speaker 1>smack them around, That's right.

0:14:25.680 --> 0:14:28.160
<v Speaker 2>Hey yeah, come on, I mean.

0:14:32.800 --> 0:14:35.080
<v Speaker 1>Ramedy Malick trying to give you attitude because it was

0:14:35.080 --> 0:14:39.240
<v Speaker 1>in a Bond film. You just smack them. That's how

0:14:39.280 --> 0:14:42.400
<v Speaker 1>you throw a wet chicken at them or something. It's like,

0:14:42.440 --> 0:14:43.840
<v Speaker 1>will you do what I tell you to do?

0:14:44.000 --> 0:14:44.080
<v Speaker 2>That?

0:14:44.360 --> 0:14:46.560
<v Speaker 1>See this is anyway?

0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:48.080
<v Speaker 2>Give me a queen bark?

0:14:48.120 --> 0:14:52.120
<v Speaker 1>Come on? What about what about? Uh? What about Kanye?

0:14:52.240 --> 0:14:53.640
<v Speaker 1>Have you ever shot Kanye?

0:14:54.560 --> 0:14:58.400
<v Speaker 2>Uh? Like, I mean I did. I went to Chicago

0:14:58.160 --> 0:15:01.280
<v Speaker 2>to shoot with him. And and followed him around for

0:15:01.400 --> 0:15:04.280
<v Speaker 2>a whole weekend. Well, he did a PSA to a concert.

0:15:04.480 --> 0:15:05.720
<v Speaker 1>But did you do his portrait?

0:15:06.720 --> 0:15:09.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean yes, and no. I didn't direct him at all.

0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:12.360
<v Speaker 2>I just was was hired to be there to follow

0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:15.400
<v Speaker 2>around for as much coverage as possible for the whole weekend.

0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:17.360
<v Speaker 2>So I kind of stayed a fly on the wall

0:15:17.360 --> 0:15:18.480
<v Speaker 2>as much as I could.

0:15:18.680 --> 0:15:21.280
<v Speaker 1>All right, So if you ever, if that ever happens again,

0:15:21.320 --> 0:15:24.160
<v Speaker 1>if you cause you again. Yeah, and he says, I

0:15:24.280 --> 0:15:25.840
<v Speaker 1>want you follow me around. I want you to shoot

0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:31.000
<v Speaker 1>a portrait, hand him a golden statue and say this

0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:35.920
<v Speaker 1>was meant force beyond. It wasn't meant for Beyonce, but

0:15:36.000 --> 0:15:37.840
<v Speaker 1>I want somebody else want it.

0:15:38.440 --> 0:15:41.920
<v Speaker 2>YEA, hold it? Okay, Clinton, Now I'm gonna take your picture.

0:15:47.960 --> 0:15:50.200
<v Speaker 2>Right he just might have an episode right while I'm

0:15:50.200 --> 0:15:50.840
<v Speaker 2>taking his picture?

0:15:51.000 --> 0:15:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Why not? So this is your this is your true

0:15:55.280 --> 0:15:58.400
<v Speaker 1>passion or is it both? You can have two passions.

0:15:58.640 --> 0:16:00.880
<v Speaker 2>I was passionate about acting for law long time, and

0:16:01.240 --> 0:16:04.520
<v Speaker 2>I and then when I found photography, it was like, okay,

0:16:05.040 --> 0:16:08.760
<v Speaker 2>people are like hiring me for photo shoots. And it

0:16:08.840 --> 0:16:11.200
<v Speaker 2>was like, okay, here's some money for to do a

0:16:11.200 --> 0:16:13.840
<v Speaker 2>photo shoot, and with acting, it's like you got an

0:16:13.880 --> 0:16:17.600
<v Speaker 2>audition to make some money, so you might get it,

0:16:17.640 --> 0:16:20.000
<v Speaker 2>you might not. But if you've got this photo shoot

0:16:20.320 --> 0:16:23.240
<v Speaker 2>and you've got to you know, and then you get

0:16:23.240 --> 0:16:25.680
<v Speaker 2>an audition. When you're an actor, you have to stop

0:16:25.760 --> 0:16:28.200
<v Speaker 2>everything you're doing in order to focus right on this audition.

0:16:28.280 --> 0:16:31.520
<v Speaker 2>So I was like, man, I remember the last audition

0:16:31.600 --> 0:16:33.360
<v Speaker 2>I went to. It was just you know, the I'm

0:16:33.360 --> 0:16:35.960
<v Speaker 2>on the four five and I went to like a

0:16:36.080 --> 0:16:40.560
<v Speaker 2>cattle call commercial audition in Santa Monica at like three

0:16:40.600 --> 0:16:43.120
<v Speaker 2>o'clock on a Friday or something, and I just had

0:16:43.120 --> 0:16:46.000
<v Speaker 2>the worst audition and I had to reschedule a bunch

0:16:46.000 --> 0:16:48.360
<v Speaker 2>of guaranteed money for photography in order to do it.

0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:51.560
<v Speaker 2>And then I get back in my car and I'm like,

0:16:51.680 --> 0:16:54.240
<v Speaker 2>just what am I doing? Why am I? Why am

0:16:54.280 --> 0:16:56.320
<v Speaker 2>I sacrificing.

0:16:55.760 --> 0:16:59.720
<v Speaker 1>This five hours to get home? Yeah, it's four o'clock

0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:02.400
<v Speaker 1>on the four would be for self tapes. I don't know.

0:17:02.440 --> 0:17:04.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't I don't know if I like the self

0:17:04.359 --> 0:17:05.440
<v Speaker 1>tapes so much.

0:17:05.920 --> 0:17:08.600
<v Speaker 2>There's pros and cons for sure, definitely. You know, there's

0:17:08.600 --> 0:17:10.639
<v Speaker 2>an energy getting in the room and talking to people.

0:17:10.920 --> 0:17:14.800
<v Speaker 1>Man, Yeah, there's psychology, you can work with psychology.

0:17:15.720 --> 0:17:18.560
<v Speaker 2>I miss and I've also got one buddy that is

0:17:18.600 --> 0:17:21.119
<v Speaker 2>on a show now. But you know, when they do

0:17:21.240 --> 0:17:24.600
<v Speaker 2>their tapes, they get as many takes as they want

0:17:24.640 --> 0:17:27.440
<v Speaker 2>to get it perfect, and then they send that perfect take,

0:17:27.800 --> 0:17:29.320
<v Speaker 2>you know, and then when you go and actually shoot

0:17:29.320 --> 0:17:32.680
<v Speaker 2>the show, yeah, one maybe two takes to get it right,

0:17:33.240 --> 0:17:36.240
<v Speaker 2>you know. So it's just a it's just a different vibe.

0:17:36.320 --> 0:17:38.439
<v Speaker 1>So kind of if you yell and scream, you can

0:17:38.480 --> 0:17:40.000
<v Speaker 1>get more takes, that's true.

0:17:40.080 --> 0:17:42.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, big enough, you can. You can get away with it.

0:17:51.840 --> 0:17:54.920
<v Speaker 1>So let's talk about some of these big times lebs.

0:17:54.960 --> 0:17:58.960
<v Speaker 1>You work with them? Or Roberts, Angela Kinsey, who's that?

0:17:59.200 --> 0:17:59.760
<v Speaker 1>Who's Angela?

0:17:59.840 --> 0:18:05.119
<v Speaker 2>Can he's Angela from the Office? Oh yeah, the the

0:18:05.600 --> 0:18:08.520
<v Speaker 2>blonde lady who marries Dwight at the end.

0:18:09.119 --> 0:18:11.119
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I never I never really watched the show.

0:18:11.600 --> 0:18:12.639
<v Speaker 2>It's such a good show.

0:18:12.880 --> 0:18:16.480
<v Speaker 1>No, I know, I've seen clips. I've never that's fun y.

0:18:16.560 --> 0:18:18.760
<v Speaker 2>I'vehot I've shot to shoot a few people from that

0:18:18.760 --> 0:18:21.520
<v Speaker 2>show because I'm friends with their publicist, and the publicist

0:18:21.600 --> 0:18:24.000
<v Speaker 2>asked if I would, you know, take some pictures of them.

0:18:24.200 --> 0:18:26.720
<v Speaker 2>But then when they started their own podcast, rewatching the

0:18:26.760 --> 0:18:29.520
<v Speaker 2>Office shows then they said, hey, come and shoot the

0:18:30.240 --> 0:18:33.119
<v Speaker 2>cover art for this. So it's called Office Ladies. It's

0:18:33.160 --> 0:18:36.280
<v Speaker 2>a really good podcast as well that I shot at

0:18:36.320 --> 0:18:37.200
<v Speaker 2>the cover art part.

0:18:37.840 --> 0:18:39.840
<v Speaker 1>Do you charge a lot of money? Are you expensive?

0:18:40.440 --> 0:18:41.360
<v Speaker 2>So much money?

0:18:41.560 --> 0:18:42.000
<v Speaker 1>How much?

0:18:42.080 --> 0:18:42.760
<v Speaker 2>So much money?

0:18:42.880 --> 0:18:45.200
<v Speaker 1>What do you charge? Tell me what do you charge?

0:18:45.440 --> 0:18:48.480
<v Speaker 2>It's different, honestly. I work with budgets. You know, you

0:18:48.560 --> 0:18:53.840
<v Speaker 2>put in bids ten thousand and shot that's on a

0:18:53.880 --> 0:18:56.919
<v Speaker 2>bad day, one hundred thousands like this.

0:18:57.480 --> 0:19:00.880
<v Speaker 1>Like so you're like Andy Leebowitz the West Coast. You're

0:19:00.960 --> 0:19:05.879
<v Speaker 1>like a female, Oh, I wish what is she? What

0:19:05.960 --> 0:19:08.159
<v Speaker 1>is she taking down per session? What do you think

0:19:08.200 --> 0:19:08.679
<v Speaker 1>she's taking?

0:19:09.000 --> 0:19:12.440
<v Speaker 2>Are you kidding me? She's what's undred hundreds of thousands

0:19:12.480 --> 0:19:15.120
<v Speaker 2>of dollars a shoot? For sure? At least at least

0:19:15.160 --> 0:19:16.840
<v Speaker 2>the budgets are that big for her shoot?

0:19:17.200 --> 0:19:20.479
<v Speaker 1>Sure, Yeah, she's taking She's takken down some big scores,

0:19:20.520 --> 0:19:20.919
<v Speaker 1>isn't she?

0:19:21.080 --> 0:19:24.160
<v Speaker 2>And then she's like and then there's licensing, So if

0:19:24.160 --> 0:19:26.840
<v Speaker 2>she's shooting someone and then they want to use those

0:19:26.880 --> 0:19:30.440
<v Speaker 2>photos for you know, for me or for all kinds

0:19:30.480 --> 0:19:33.520
<v Speaker 2>of things, she's just getting paid just for the shoot itself.

0:19:33.560 --> 0:19:34.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, beautiful.

0:19:34.720 --> 0:19:37.600
<v Speaker 2>It's like residuals for actors. It's just that's it's that's

0:19:37.640 --> 0:19:40.000
<v Speaker 2>where the photographers really make their dusk real.

0:19:40.040 --> 0:19:46.000
<v Speaker 1>The cake is man. So, who's been your favorite to shoot? Though?

0:19:46.280 --> 0:19:48.240
<v Speaker 1>Of these famous.

0:19:48.359 --> 0:19:51.439
<v Speaker 2>Celebrity man my favorite to shoot?

0:19:51.680 --> 0:19:54.159
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to ask you who's who's been your favorite

0:19:54.560 --> 0:19:56.960
<v Speaker 1>and who was a nightmare? I want to know who

0:19:57.080 --> 0:19:58.000
<v Speaker 1>was a nightmare?

0:20:00.080 --> 0:20:04.199
<v Speaker 2>Kanye. Kanye was definitely a prima donna. I mean, he

0:20:04.359 --> 0:20:08.520
<v Speaker 2>was like that's shocking. Yeah, I remember going to Chicago,

0:20:08.640 --> 0:20:11.679
<v Speaker 2>and I mean, but he's a genius as well as like,

0:20:11.760 --> 0:20:14.040
<v Speaker 2>at the same time, you just kind of give him

0:20:14.080 --> 0:20:14.639
<v Speaker 2>the grace.

0:20:15.000 --> 0:20:18.439
<v Speaker 1>Why is he a genius? Why is this term music

0:20:18.520 --> 0:20:21.600
<v Speaker 1>around so much? That he's a genius.

0:20:21.520 --> 0:20:24.520
<v Speaker 2>With music and producing and uh, you.

0:20:24.480 --> 0:20:28.000
<v Speaker 1>Know when a lot of people do that, do that.

0:20:28.320 --> 0:20:31.919
<v Speaker 2>It's true. I know there's uh I think there's an

0:20:31.920 --> 0:20:35.479
<v Speaker 2>old documentary called Genius that is about him being him

0:20:35.480 --> 0:20:39.600
<v Speaker 2>being a genius for with music, but with producing and

0:20:39.680 --> 0:20:43.000
<v Speaker 2>just his ear and his lyrics and all kinds of stuff.

0:20:43.040 --> 0:20:47.679
<v Speaker 2>I think he's just got a very innovative and revolutionary

0:20:47.720 --> 0:20:50.320
<v Speaker 2>as far as the as far as music is concerned,

0:20:50.880 --> 0:20:52.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm not I'm no expert.

0:20:52.119 --> 0:20:54.960
<v Speaker 1>In that I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna dig into

0:20:55.000 --> 0:20:57.040
<v Speaker 1>this a little bit. I'm gonna check this out.

0:20:57.440 --> 0:21:00.960
<v Speaker 2>Wait. So in Chicago, I remember he gave a concert

0:21:01.160 --> 0:21:03.640
<v Speaker 2>and and then there was like one little thing. It

0:21:03.720 --> 0:21:06.840
<v Speaker 2>sounded perfect to me, And there was like one little thing,

0:21:06.840 --> 0:21:09.840
<v Speaker 2>and he's doing it for like all these these underprivileged

0:21:09.880 --> 0:21:11.160
<v Speaker 2>youths in Chicago.

0:21:11.480 --> 0:21:12.400
<v Speaker 1>Oh that's nice.

0:21:12.840 --> 0:21:15.560
<v Speaker 2>There was one thing that didn't set that sounded off,

0:21:15.640 --> 0:21:20.000
<v Speaker 2>and he stopped the concert. Boy. Oh and and for

0:21:20.119 --> 0:21:22.880
<v Speaker 2>like a half an hour, forty five minutes or so,

0:21:23.040 --> 0:21:26.560
<v Speaker 2>he made sure that everything sounded fine and just let

0:21:26.600 --> 0:21:29.640
<v Speaker 2>these let everybody wait. Well, he just wanted to get

0:21:29.640 --> 0:21:30.520
<v Speaker 2>this one little thing.

0:21:30.440 --> 0:21:32.320
<v Speaker 1>Right, because that's what geniuses do.

0:21:32.880 --> 0:21:37.360
<v Speaker 2>I guess they don't settle. They don't settle for mediocrity.

0:21:37.480 --> 0:21:39.520
<v Speaker 1>And then he gets up there and he takes somebody's

0:21:39.560 --> 0:21:46.800
<v Speaker 1>award away. That's what geniuses do. Yeah, I don't know

0:21:46.880 --> 0:21:49.920
<v Speaker 1>his music that well, I'm gonna check it out, uh,

0:21:50.000 --> 0:21:51.720
<v Speaker 1>and I'll get back to you on the So, who

0:21:51.800 --> 0:21:55.240
<v Speaker 1>was in so other than him? Who was a nightmare

<v Speaker 1>Yes, yes, she's so nice all smiles, yes the whole time.

0:22:11.920 --> 0:22:14.280

0:22:14.320 --> 0:22:16.480
<v Speaker 2>bad time you you wouldn't know, and she would be.

0:22:16.760 --> 0:22:17.880
<v Speaker 2>She's just so pleasant.

0:22:18.000 --> 0:22:19.960
<v Speaker 1>What about Emma Roberts, dude.

0:22:19.760 --> 0:22:22.600
<v Speaker 2>Emma Roberts was super cool. I shot her a few

0:22:22.680 --> 0:22:25.639
<v Speaker 2>times because she and I had the same manager. So

0:22:25.960 --> 0:22:29.560

<v Speaker 2>Photographed so many? Oh many? I mean Annie is definitely.

0:23:47.280 --> 0:23:49.959
<v Speaker 1>Give me, give me one, Give me one, give meat.

0:23:53.359 --> 0:23:53.439
<v Speaker 2>Ye.

0:23:53.560 --> 0:23:56.800
<v Speaker 1>I like him. He creates that world, doesn't he? But

0:23:56.800 --> 0:23:59.760
<v Speaker 1>but he lived that world, didn't he. It's not like

0:23:59.840 --> 0:24:03.480
<v Speaker 1>he was this church going guy who had a family

0:24:03.520 --> 0:24:06.359
<v Speaker 1>and he'd go home, but then he had these fantasies

0:24:06.400 --> 0:24:09.280
<v Speaker 1>and he'd go and he'd act out all brought to life.

0:24:10.160 --> 0:24:12.240
<v Speaker 1>But he lived that life, didn't He didn't he live

0:24:12.320 --> 0:24:12.879
<v Speaker 1>that life?

0:24:13.280 --> 0:24:16.040
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I don't know too much about his personal life,

0:24:16.080 --> 0:24:19.359
<v Speaker 2>but I mean, if it's anything like his photos, I

0:24:19.359 --> 0:24:23.560
<v Speaker 2>mean it's pretty. It's pretty cool and voyeuristic and kinky.

0:24:24.119 --> 0:24:27.080
<v Speaker 1>So you're doing the photography full time, you're charging tens

0:24:27.160 --> 0:24:28.879
<v Speaker 1>of thousands of dollars per photogs.

0:24:28.920 --> 0:24:30.080
<v Speaker 2>That's just so much money.

0:24:30.240 --> 0:24:32.920
<v Speaker 1>You're getting stupid rich. You're getting stupid rich.

0:24:34.440 --> 0:24:39.560
<v Speaker 2>No, man, I assist other photographers. Man, I shoot photography

0:24:39.600 --> 0:24:41.840
<v Speaker 2>is a journey man. So I, yes, I shoot celebrities

0:24:41.840 --> 0:24:43.879
<v Speaker 2>every once in a while, but you know, you shoot

0:24:43.880 --> 0:24:45.920
<v Speaker 2>all kinds of stuff, and it's different from from day

0:24:45.960 --> 0:24:49.320
<v Speaker 2>to day. You know, there was a one day I

0:24:49.359 --> 0:24:53.320
<v Speaker 2>was shooting like a marijuana facility, and then the next

0:24:53.400 --> 0:24:56.000
<v Speaker 2>then the next day you're shooting kids fashion, and then

0:24:56.000 --> 0:24:58.919
<v Speaker 2>there's you know, just wherever the wherever the jobs are

0:24:58.920 --> 0:25:01.640
<v Speaker 2>coming and people are and refer to you. It's it's
