Coffee & Content - How to Act on Camera & Creating the Ultimate Antagonist (The Dark Knight)

Happy Sunday, everyone.  Trust you're all having a great weekend?We're still buzzing from what was a remarkable and inspiring day at the Stage 32/LA Acting Studio's 1st Film Con Hollywood.  We'll have more updates about and some cool video from the event coming soon.  Until then, let's get to this edition of Coffee & Content. First up, how about 2 dudes talking acting?  It's Film Acting Tips: How to Act on Camera, with Chris Mack.  I love the conversational and relaxed tone of this vid.  Almost makes you overlook the great reminders and quality nuggets of info within.  Next up, is there anything better in storytelling than a killer antagonist?  That was a rhetorical question by the way...at least in my mind.  Anyway, here's a video from the Lessons from the Screenplay team titled The Dark Knight - Creating the Ultimate Antagonist.  Have a feeling you'll watch this one at least a couple of times. Pick your roast, settle in and enjoy the content. As always, my only ask is that you hit those share buttons above and/or email a link to this blog to those you feel would benefit from viewing. And, of course, I always love hearing your thoughts on the material.  Feel free to muse or vent in the comment section below. Have an awesome day! Cheers!

3 Ways You Can Create Meaningful Social Media Relationships Today

If there was one subject that dominated the questions asked during my recent Stage 32 AMA, it was about best practices on social media.  Many of you wanted to know how to go about creating meaningful relationships that would help accelerate your path to success.  You know my feelings on this subject as it relates to launching and maintaining a career in film and content creation: Relationships = Reads Relationships = Jobs Relationships = Financing Relationships = Champions of you and your work Relationships = Greater opportunities Since we only had about 90 minutes, I was unable to get to all of your questions.  Therefore, I decided to tackle the most asked as part of my new article for Medium - 3 Ways You Can Create Meaningful Social Media Relationships Today. I hope you find the material helpful and that it inspires you to change/enhance your social media habits and increase the time spent on building relationships that matter.  And remember, you can see all my previous Medium articles and follow me on the platform here Enjoy!
