In this very special episode, Steven Leavitt is joined by his first boss, Wendy Vanguard. This becomes a touchstone for a very intriguing conversation that goes into mentorship, design, physics, energy, illustration, the emotional effect of color, the world of art in Los Angeles in the 70's (the LA Women's Building, AIDS, Roe v. Wade), parenting, and the dawn of computer-generated animation. Wendy is a Los Angeles-based artist whose professional career has spanned work as an illustrator, an art director, broadcast designer and award winning corporate image designer. Although she was awarded a Masters Grant from Art Center to pursue her painting, the hard-hitting reality of life in LA without a job lead her to abandon the grant and find employment. Wendy quickly found she had constant work: from illustrating storyboards for advertising commercials and small films to exhibit design projects, and then began designing titles for television shows such as The Rockford Files, The Six Million Dollar Man, and Planet of the Apes. She was a part of the creative design and production team for the Charles and Ray Eames Office and the creation of the film Powers of Ten. Later, she worked as an Art Director for Universal Television supervising special effects projects (BattleStar Galactica) gave her a taste of working an industry job and this led to becoming a design director for renowned ground-breaking broadcast designer Harry Marks. Wanting to work independently again, Wendy formed California Film, a broadcast design firm, choosing her own team of artists and designers to collaborate with and designing one of the earliest open plan office spaces. As it's founder and Creative Director she led them in creating award winning image campaigns and corporate design packages for CBS Entertainment, CBS News, HBO, The Walt Disney Company, the Disney-owned Flagship station California 9 (KCAL), ABC Prime Time Live, National Geographic, TBN, The Movie Channel, and more. Wendy and colleagues created (fake) computer imagery for LucasFilm's, “Return of the Jedi.” At the same time she met and married photographer Mitch Dobrowner, who soon became part of her company, leading it in new technologies and production methods. After experiencing a devastating social experience, Wendy struggled through what she coined “the dark decade,” and discusses how she managed to work through this time in her life and find new joy by shifting her focus to her family, personal creative projects, and giving back to her community through mentorship. Throughout a lifetime of unexpected turns, struggles, and successes, Wendy rediscovered an inner resilience as a woman and artist that carries her along her path.

Hey, anybody want this bowl of Garmonbozia we just cooked up? Oh, wait, doesn't that translate to 'Pain and Anguish'? Oh, correct, yeah. nevermind. Not one to back away from a (self-imposed) challenge, Jack checked out Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me, the feature film spin-off/prequel for the iconic television show that made everyone want coffee, pie and a dancing Man from Another Place (or at least a Log Lady or singing Norweigans), and one that, truth be told, he didn't care for too much on a first viewing nine years ago. But David Lynch, co-creator of the series and mastermind behind this attempt to make something of the world created in the Northwest about mystery. murder, and what lies beneath the subconscious and in the world of dreams (and nightmares), went back in time. And he found... something not unlike the experience of another franchise. The point is: what the hell happens when one sees this FIVE TIMES in a week? We probably won't talk about Judy, either. Oh, and SPOILERS of course for the show. wagesofcinema@gmail.com https://facebook.com/wagesofcinema https://twitter.com/wagesofcinema https://instagram.com/wagesofcinema listen to us on Soundcloud AND iTunes (clips featured from the film and soundtrack to TP: FWWM, from CBS Entertainment and Angelo Badalamenti)
Nina Tassler is best known as the former President and then Chairman of CBS Entertainment, shepherding the network to great success and high ratings with hits like the CSi franchise, How I Met Your Mother, The Good Wife, Mom and many others. We knew Nina loved monkeys! No longer holding that particular lofty position (but still very much involved in the industry) she has now released a book as a gesture for her daughter but also available to the world called "What I Told My Daughter: Lessons from Leaders on Raising the Next Generation of Empowered Women." A self-proclaimed feminist, Nina was raised in New York state by progressive-minded parents who ran summer camps - she gained a love for theater after seeing shows on Broadway - studied at Boston University - and thus began her particular circuitous route to becoming one of the most powerful and successful television executives ever. Oh...and it just so happens that she is a woman. Our conversation is inspiring for anyone who aspires to be creative, and also a must-listen for any young women who struggles with their place and identity in the modern world. What I Told My Daughter from Simon & Schuster is available now wherever books are sold. For more information go here.

Glen Geller speaks about Star Trek 2017. By now, if you're a Star Trek fan, you know that a new series is coming to the CBS All Access streaming service. While there isn't really anything new that we know about the series, SlashFilm has published an article titled “CBS Has Nothing To Do with Streaming Star Trek Series,” in which they quote CBS Entertainment’s new president, Glen Geller. Is that true? Hardly. We share our thoughts on the topic. HostC Bryan Jones ProductionC Bryan Jones (Editor and Producer) Matthew Rushing (Executive Producer) Norman C.
