Pierre Heistein talks to Brendan Davis, from episode 58, about the documentary film he made telling the story of Atuel River in Mendoza region, Argentina. In 2020 there were protests against the overturning of a water protection law that had successfully kept water-intensive mining projects out of the Mendoza province, the largest wine-producing region in Latin America that gets water from the Atuel River.Pierre and two others decided to trace the route of the river from high up in the Andes to its end in the Cuyo Desert, becoming the first to do so, and recording perspectives of local people who engage with the river in different ways. The resulting documentary received an overwhelmingly positive response from the local community and has caused Pierre to reflect on society's pace of life, reliance on, and connectedness to nature.About Pierre HeisteinPierre believes that we really are capable of creating more harmonious relationships with each other and the natural world that supports us. He contributes to this through photography, entrepreneurship, teaching, and fatherhood.Find out more at: ATUEL Documentary Spanish version and Instagram Email: Pierre DOT Heistein @ Gmail.comConnect with Brendan Davis https://www.crazyinagoodway.comKey QuotesWe felt that it was very important to make the river the main subject, the protagonist of thisfilm.We were forced to move at the river's pace and we were forced to move at the pace of nature itself.It made me reflect on how to work better, how to live better, how to produce better and to do so at a far more natural pace of ebb and flow of passion and rest.I think the river just taught me that just how to ebb and flow, how to speed up, slow down, go stop and really integrate that into the rest of my lifeWe are a manmade oasis in the middle of the desert, it is impossible to live here without having a deep connection to the river.Our little planet earth in this immense of expansive space is the only place we can live. And we depend on it. And if we don't look after it, we're probably not gonna be able to live here, at least with not any level of quality of life.It has made me really question, what am I working towards and reminded me to, to just always be very conscious of the jobs I seek and understand why.We are not here to serve nature. Nature's not here to serve us. It's a relationship. and just like any relationship in our lives, it needs to be as healthy as possible.This series is kindly supported by Squadcast –the remote recording platform which empowers podcasters by capturing high-quality audio and video conversations.Read the transcription for this episode at our websiteConnect with Access to Inspiration on Twitter : Facebook : Instagram : LinkedIn : Read our Impact ReportSound Editor: Matias de Ezcurra (he/him).

Sue Stockdale talks to Brendan Davis, a writer-director-producer working internationally in film & TV about what his work involves; what makes an award-winning film, and how filmmaking can transcend some of the silos that people find themselves in.Brendan's career began his entertainment career in Atlanta in 1990, moved to Los Angeles in 2002, and has split his time between Beijing and Los Angeles since 2013. Davis has been a producer on films premiering, competing, or winning at Sundance, Toronto, Berlin, and other festivals. In 2013 Davis produced the first Los Angeles-based season of Chinese TV hit "Jia Pian You Yue" for CCTV-6, featuring Stan Lee, Justin Lin, M. Night Shyamalan, Sean Astin, and others. He is a former Producing faculty member at the New York Film Academy in Los Angeles, served a year as Chairman of Adamas Film International in Beijing, and has guest lectured at the Beijing Film Academy. In 2018 he wrote and directed the documentary “Yibin: An Elemental Journey” for CCTV. In 2019 he and director Eric Raine completed a 5-year journey making feature documentary CRAZYHOT, about the world of ultra hot chile peppers, now available on VOD worldwide. Davis is currently in pre-production on Paris-based feature film MY FAVORITE SEASON and producing a documentary on US-China relations with writer-director Larry Sullivan, cinematographer Naeem Seirafi, and partners.Quotes'Film is a way for me to connect with greater experiences outside myself, but also have my internal interpretation of it.' 'Film is as much driven by the use of sound and music, as it is the visual'. 'The most successful films in general have a sense of cohesion internally. It feels like a finished piece of work'. 'A lot of things inspire me. I think that overcoming long odds is, something that's very relatable to people in general. I think that especially moves me'. 'I feel like there is interest in how can I benefit my family and my society, my cohort. That's a generic difference between the Chinese culture versus the American culture. But I do think it's changing'.'I have a lot of hope and faith and confidence in filmmaking to transcend some of these silos that people find themselves in. And I feel like that's what is going to be even more necessary than ever before, as we move forward'.Find out more about Brendan Davis:  Website https://www.crazyinagoodway.com the podcast "How China Works" https://www.howchinaworkspodcast.com/ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/brendankdavis/Twitter https://twitter.com/VeritasInLuxRead the transcription for this episode at www.accesstoinspiration.org or connect with us at Twitter www.twitter.com/accessinspirat1  Facebook www.facebook.com/accesstoinspiration  Instagram www.instagram.com/accesstoinspiration  LinkedIn www.linkedin.com/company/access-to-inspiration/   Sign up for our newsletter http://eepurl.com/hguX2b   Download our Impact Report https://accesstoinspiration.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/Impact-Report-2021.pdf Sound Editor: Matias de Ezcurra (he/him)Producer: Sue Stockdale (she/her)

Brendan Davis – Investigate Your Foreign Investment Carefully, Appearances Can Be Deceiving

My Worst Investment Ever Podcast

Brendan Davis is a writer-director-producer working internationally in film & TV. He began his entertainment career in Atlanta in 1990, moved to Los Angeles in 2002, and has split his time between Beijing and Los Angeles since 2013. In December 2019, Davis was recognized for his cross-cultural leadership by being appointed to serve as a Distinguished Special Foreign Expert with the Beijing Global Talent Exchange Association. His appointment as an advisor runs through 2024.   “Pick your battles carefully. Set yourself up for success as much as possible.” Brendan Davis   Worst investment ever Exploring an international investment opportunity In 2013/14, China was wide open to foreign investment co-productions trying to work with other treaty partners. One of the countries the Chinese were the keenest to work with was New Zealand. Brendan happened to have two partners in New Zealand and a Chinese partner in Los Angeles. The partners had been working on a project together for a while now. He figured that this project would be a good co-production with China. And so he decided to explore this international partnership. Changing the script The project was initially developed as a Western New Zealand Hollywood type of project. So the first step was to change the script to fit the co-production requirements of New Zealand and China. Due to cultural differences, censorship, and sensitivities in China, they had to re-examine and rebuild the whole story and characters. Finding a Chinese financier For the project to receive the co-production incentives, Brendan had to find a Chinese financier. Through former colleagues and his Chinese partner, he found someone who fit the bill. The gentleman was a second-generation wealthy guy in China and a Vice President of a big studio film finance entity. He was one of the guys deciding where to spend money. The gentleman had been rewarded for his success so far, with a few 50% government investments in a new firm all his own to develop and produce projects. So he was just getting going with this new company when Brendan and his project came along. And it seemed like they were the answer to each other’s dreams. Sealing the deal Because Brendan at the time barely spoke any Chinese and the gentleman spoke zero English, they each got an interpreter. Brendan and his team went to Beijing, met him, liked each other, and things got onto a great start. The gentleman had very fancy offices. He was seemingly very rich and powerful. Everything about him validated that he would be the guy to do this. He even gave them a suite of offices in his fancy custom design, new headquarters building. The business plan seemed to be coming together very smoothly. After a couple of back and forth trips between Beijing and LA, and discussions, they signed a deal that detailed everything about how Brendan and his team were supposed to operate, and it also spelled out exactly what the financier was committing to do as the executive producer and a financier. Introducing the human speed bump As Brendan and his partner were preparing to leave China to start pre-production, the gentleman told them that they would appear at the 2014 Beijing Film Festival to make the big announcement of their partnership together. The gentleman built for his company a very fancy booth. They did dozens of interviews in English and Chinese, took many photos, and told many stories. There were about 80 photographers at their press conference. It was a pretty big public deal. But the troubles started immediately after that press conference. They were sitting at their booth just catching their breath when this angry, short little woman who they’d never met, never heard of, and had no idea who she was appeared out of nowhere. She introduced herself as a friend of the gentleman. She was freaking out and grilling Brendan with creative issues she had with the story. Brendan was shocked to learn that this stranger knew all these delicate details of their business. It turned out; she was meant to buy the gentleman time to get his act together. It was all falling apart behind the scenes It turns out that the gentleman’s father, from where his power and wealth is derived, got caught up in a corruption scandal. He lost his influence in his high position and was likely going to go to jail. All this mess was trickling down to the son who was about to lose everything. He was desperately covering it as fast as he could. The gentleman could no longer afford to finance the project, and just like that, the project died an abrupt death. He kept Brendan and his team completely in the dark about the true nature of the situation for over six months. Had they known this, they would have pivoted to somebody else and probably salvaged the project. Lessons learned Cultural differences are real Cultural differences are very real around the world. Business deals and contracts could have completely different meanings from what you’re used to. So, understand the cultural differences first before you sign any deal. Choose your international partners carefully The best way to apply foreign risk management is to only work with people with whom you can have trust and full, clear communication. Andrew’s takeaways Be wary of complexity Some deals can be too complex for you to handle. If that’s the case, never be afraid to walk away from such deals. You never truly know what’s happening behind the scenes A lot could be happening behind the scenes without your knowledge unless you’re working with someone you know and trust. People will always try to put on their best face when making a deal. Never believe they’re truly genuine until the money is in the bank. Investigate your foreign investment Don’t be afraid to investigate your intended investment, because you never know what’s going on behind the scenes. Actionable advice Develop empathy for the people you’re working with. Make sure that you truly have a clear understanding of where your other party in the deal is coming from, and then tailor your strategy accordingly. Continue to be empathetic, keep your eyes and ears open, and see how they react as things develop. No. 1 goal for the next 12 months Brendan’s goal for the next 12 months is to make his current feature film project called My Favorite Season, which is set in the world of Paris Fashion and then settle in what he hopes to be his new home in Auckland, New Zealand. Parting words   “Send your best wishes, prayers, whatever works for you to China as it deals with this novel coronavirus situation. They really need all the support they can get, and I’m rooting for them.” Brendan Davis   Connect with Brendan Davis LinkedIn Facebook Twitter Website Andrew’s books How to Start Building Your Wealth Investing in the Stock Market My Worst Investment Ever 9 Valuation Mistakes and How to Avoid Them Transform Your Business with Dr.Deming’s 14 Points Andrew’s online programs Valuation Master Class Women Building Wealth The Build Your Wealth Membership Group Become a Great Presenter and Increase Your Influence Transform Your Business with Dr. Deming’s 14 Points Connect with Andrew Stotz: astotz.com LinkedIn Facebook Instagram Twitter YouTube My Worst Investment Ever Podcast
