CLOUT by Colette

Hi y'all, due to COVID-19 I haven't been able to interview any artists, but Isabel Campbell @ibelcampbell interviewed me on her radio show Dezign Skool about a month and a half ago, and is letting me post it here! I'm not sure how I will continue the podcast since I can't really interview anyone due to the virus, but I will figure it out and somehow get some content on here for you guys. Thank you for listening, stay safe!

CLOUT is a project focused on giving young artists the clout they deserve, one podcast at a time. For episode #2, filmmaker Judah Grayson and I discuss what it means to be a fine artist living, working and practicing in the deep south. How do we stand by our southern identities, while simultaneously rejecting some of its fundamental values? Judah dives into his experiences with film, mega-churches, community, and taking the road less traveled.  Judah's social media: @judahgray on Instagram & his studio @stgato Judah's portfolio / reel: https://vimeo.com/366136685 Find the podcast on… Instagram: @Cloutpodcast Twitter: @Cloutbycolette Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnxsHJ6EWgB6MLCC4FQTrFQ Email for inquiries, suggestions, referrals, or love letters: cloutpodcontact@gmail.com Host Colette Bernard’s info...
