These days it seems like everyone has a creative side hustle: actor, singer, youtuber, Twitch streamer... the permeations are endless. It's a rare bird, though, to find someone who is actually making their living (and in this case has been for the entirety of their substantial career) in Hollywood. Meet Ford Austin. Executive producer on high budget films with A-List celebs (most recently with John Malkovich, and Tyrese Gibson), Director, and Actor - Ford has done it all. Based on the multiple awards he's won and the length/breadth of his career it's safe to say he's done it all well.
In this interview Ford talks about what it means to make a living in that world, and even shares some great advice for how to join. Fascinating revelations about the power of social media, and so much more are all part of what gets discussed. If you're interested in a peak behind the curtain to this world, this episode is for you!
