S5:E11 - Filmmaker and Multi-Hyphenate Tony Clomax
We are lucky to have filmmaker and multi-hyphenate Tony Clomax on this episode of 'somindboggling journeys.' His journey is 'somindboggling' indeed as he wears the hats of: creator, director, screenwriter, producer, editor and tenured-track professor. He shares what it's like juggling all the things and what he's experienced and learned along the way. This chat is really eye-opening because it sheds light on the fact that there's nothing easy or smooth about pursuing and living the dream. There are obstacles and challenges along the way that ultimately serve to fine-tune the artist and his craft. We leave no stone un-turned. I even had the opportunity to grill him on the 3...no 4! auditions of past that I've had of his, but didn't book LOL. All in good fun though! Tune in and watch/listen to the many nuggets Tony drops.
