Podcasts about Crowdfunding

On today's episode, we welcome the dynamic duo, Lily Yasuda and Michael Wolfe, two inspiring filmmakers who have decided to take the road less traveled by creating their own feature film, Like Love. Their journey is one of collaboration, determination, and creativity—filled with moments of laughter and the occasional unexpected hurdle.From the outset, you'll sense the chemistry between Lily and Michael. They first crossed paths during their time at Chapman University, bonding over vulnerable and humorous writing assignments in a creative writing class. Their shared passion for storytelling sparked not only a friendship but also a creative partnership. This partnership culminated in the idea for Like Love, a project born out of their desire to challenge traditional romantic comedy tropes.“We wanted to tell a story that feels real and honest,” Lily shares, “about friendships and the complexities of human connection.”At its heart, Like Love is what they call an “anti-romantic comedy.” Drawing inspiration from classics like When Harry Met Sally, Lily and Michael aim to flip the script on the genre. Instead of perpetuating the myth that friendship between men and women inevitably leads to romance, their film explores the beauty of platonic relationships. As Michael explains, “It's about two friends trying to fall in love and realizing they're better off as friends. That's the kind of story we don't see enough.”Their filmmaking journey hasn't been without its challenges. Crowdfunding has been a pivotal part of bringing Like Love to life. Lily and Michael describe the process as “a full-time job in itself,” requiring not only meticulous planning but also a willingness to be vulnerable and open about their creative vision. They've leaned heavily on their network for support, finding generosity in unexpected places.“The community in Boise has been incredible,” says Lily. “People here are so supportive, offering locations, resources, and even homemade meals for the crew.”Despite the logistical hurdles, their passion for storytelling shines through. Michael, the film's director, admits that directing a micro-budget feature comes with unique pressures. “We're all wearing multiple hats,” he notes, “but it's an amazing experience to work so closely with a team that believes in the project.” Lily, who also stars as the film's lead, balances her roles as actor, writer, and producer with grace, emphasizing the importance of collaboration in every aspect of the project.As they reflect on their experiences, one thing becomes clear: Like Love is more than just a film; it's a testament to the power of community and perseverance. Lily and Michael hope their story inspires other aspiring filmmakers to take the leap. “Making a movie isn't easy,” Lily acknowledges, “but if you're passionate about your story, you'll find a way to make it happen.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bulletproof-screenwriting-podcast--2881148/support.

Of je nu als team of als solopreneur aan de slag bent: het is nooit een slecht idee om u in te bedden in een ecosysteem met andere ondernemers die in min of meer dezelfde fase zitten of min of meer in hetzelfde domein actief zijn. Daarvoor kunt u bijvoorbeeld terecht bij gespecialiseerde netwerken, incubatoren of acceleratoren zoals Start it @KBC. Niet elk bedrijf kan terecht bij Start it @KBC. Alleen innovatieve bedrijven maken kans op een plek in het programma. Wat heeft het programma in huis, waardoor ondernemers een versnelling hoger kunnen schakelen? Een netwerk van mentoren, vaak alumni van het programma, en experten, een opleidingsaanbod én een co-working. Het zijn wellicht vooral de peers die ondernemers vooruit stuwen. Toevallige ontmoetingen aan de koffiepot zorgen voor kruisbestuivingen. Collega-ondernemers die bepaalde veronderstellingen of denkbeelden in vraag durven stellen en uitdagen. Net zoals mensen die gewicht willen verliezen bij de diëtist op de weegschaal moeten, moeten de ondernemers aan elkaar rapporteren over hun vooruitgang en het al dan niet halen van de tussentijdse doelstellingen.

In today's episode, Greg Burke, Assistant Professor of Accounting and Business Law at Loyola University Chicago, highlighted a key finding from his research: less than a third of crowdfunding issuers file their required annual reports on time, and fewer than half ever do.Greg explained that this lack of compliance undermines investor trust and market legitimacy. “Investors are looking for regulation crowdfunding annual reports,” he said. “Sometimes they're just not finding it. If investors are demanding it and they're not getting it, it certainly may impact their investment decisions and the potential growth in this market.”The consequences of this gap in transparency are significant. As Greg noted, compliance with annual reporting requirements provides investors with critical information to make better decisions. This transparency fosters trust, encourages repeat investments, and helps attract new capital to the space.Greg's research also uncovered ways to increase compliance. In a field experiment conducted with King's Crowd, a marketing campaign emphasized the regulatory risks of failing to comply with reporting requirements. This simple approach increased compliance by 20%. “A simple email reminder tailored towards emphasizing regulatory risk can make a difference,” Greg said.Platforms and intermediaries also play a critical role. Greg suggested that crowdfunding platforms could incorporate reporting support into their services, either by helping issuers directly or partnering with third-party providers. He noted that the process doesn't have to be costly or complicated. “There are services out there that can provide these reports for less than a thousand dollars,” Greg explained.By addressing this issue, we could unlock the full potential of regulated crowdfunding. Transparent reporting not only satisfies investor demand but also legitimizes the marketplace, opening doors for more diverse founders and innovative solutions to access much-needed capital.Improving compliance with reporting requirements might seem like a small step, but it's a foundational one. As Greg put it, “Any kind of movement in this space to increase reporting compliance only adds legitimacy to the space.”tl;dr:Greg Burke highlights low compliance with annual reporting requirements in the regulated crowdfunding market.Improved compliance fosters investor trust and market growth, benefiting entrepreneurs and diverse founders.Greg's research shows emphasizing regulatory risks can increase reporting compliance by 20%.Crowdfunding platforms and third-party services can simplify compliance for resource-constrained entrepreneurs.Greg's superpower is making complex topics relatable by tailoring messages to his audience's needs.How to Develop Making Complex Concepts Relatable As a SuperpowerGreg's superpower is making complex, seemingly dull topics engaging, relatable, and accessible. As Greg explained, “I think what I've come down to is making seemingly uninteresting, confusing, or unimportant things seem interesting, understandable, and relevant.” He emphasized that the key to this skill lies in understanding the audience, creating an engaging environment, and translating complicated ideas into relatable concepts.Illustrative Story:Greg shared an example from his classroom, where he taught students about safeguarding assets, a topic that might seem boring at first glance. By comparing company practices to personal experiences—like hiding cash from a roommate—he made the concept tangible and easy to understand. Through relatable analogies, Greg transformed a dry academic topic into a conversation his students could connect with and apply.Actionable Tips for Developing the Superpower:Know Your Audience: Understand what matters to the people you're speaking to and tailor your message.Make It Relatable: Use analogies or examples drawn from everyday life to explain complex ideas.Create an Open Environment: Foster a safe, genuine, and engaging space to encourage curiosity and interaction.Observe and Adjust: Pay attention to how people respond to your explanations and refine your approach accordingly.Be Brave: Don't be afraid to try new ways of communicating, even if it doesn't work perfectly the first time.By following Greg's example and advice, you can make “making complex concepts relatable” a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileGreg Burke (he/him):Assistant Professor of Accounting and Business Law, Quinlan School of Business at Loyola University ChicagoAbout Quinlan School of Business at Loyola University Chicago: Loyola University Chicago's business school educates responsible leaders through master's, undergraduate, and executive education.Website: gregory-burke.comOther URL: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=5463161Biographical Information: Greg Burke, Ph.D., CPA, is an Assistant Professor of Accounting at the Quinlan School of Business at Loyola University Chicago, located in the heart of downtown Chicago.

Hallo und willkommen zu einer neuen Episode des Drachentöter Podcasts.

Twee sprekende cijfers op de website van NOA (het vroeger Netwerk Ondernemen): “90 procent van de start-ups faalt, maar met een co-founder aan je zijde verhoog je de slaagkans” en “40 procent van de co-founderrelaties loopt spaak na gemiddeld twee jaar”. Via welke platformen kunnen ondernemers op zoek gaan naar andere ondernemers om mee samen te werken? LinkedIn, Facebook, netwerken voor ondernemers, matchingprogramma's, enzovoort. Met twee of met drie kun je meer werk verzetten dan alleen, maar voor een goed draaiend team moeten een aantal voorwaarden ingevuld zijn. Ieder lid van het team moet dezelfde passie hebben, bereid zijn te werken aan een oplossing voor hetzelfde probleem. Volgens Sabine Eevers moeten oprichters eerlijk antwoorden op een aantal vragen. “Wat is de dieper liggende behoefte of het belang? Soms wordt dat de why (waarom) genoemd of de purpose (doelstelling)? Welk probleem wil je oplossen? Maar ook welk soort bedrijf wil je uitbouwen? Komen jullie waarden en normen overeen? Welke bedrijfscultuur wil je? Wat kan absoluut niet door de beugel voor de ene of de andere? Wie gaat welke rol binnen het bedrijf op zich nemen? Je moet die grote droom echt scherpstellen en visies aligneren. Anders wordt het ontzettend moeilijk om vooruitgang te boeken. Als partners niet volledig op dezelfde golflengte zitten of niet voldoende complementair zijn in de zogenoemde hard skills dan zijn jullie misschien niet de meest ideale partners om van start te gaan.” In Trends podcasts vind je alle podcasts van Trends en Trends Z, netjes geordend volgens publicatie.

Er is heel veel hulp, steun en subsidies beschikbaar voor startende of groeiende ondernemers. Van online bootcamps, acceleratorprogramma's, mentoren tot gespecialiseerde netwerken,… Op het internet en sociale media komen we regelmatig ook ondernemerscoaches tegen. Doorgaans hebben ze naar eigen zeggen zelf een succesvol bedrijf gehad, mét een miljoenenomzet. Soms hebben ze hun bedrijf voor veel geld verkocht. Soms hebben ze genoeg verdiend met hun onderneming om er gewoon mee te stoppen. Altijd weten ze hoe u van 100.000 euro naar 1 miljoen euro omzet moet gaan, of iets in die grootteorde. Over winst wordt vaak niet gesproken in die advertenties op sociale media, terwijl het uiteindelijk toch vooral om het onderste lijntje op de resultatenrekening draait: wat blijft er van de inkomsten over na aftrek van alle kosten en belastingen? Die coaches rekenen soms hoge kosten aan. Behalve enkele reviews op het internet of mondreclame is er weinig substantieels te vinden om het trackrecord van die coaches te checken. Ze werken niet met een erkend statuut of een keurmerk. Bij Vlaio, het agentschap innoveren en ondernemen, kunt u terecht voor eerste hulp bij ondernemen. Gratis. U kunt er ook vragen stellen over vergunningen, bescherming van intellectuele eigendom of vragen over subsidies zoals de kmo-portefeuille bijvoorbeeld. Wat Vlaio niet doet: uw ondernemingsidee vormgeven. Vlaio werkt wel samen met tal van partnerorganisaties die u voor enkele honderden euro's van vaag idee tot een echt ondernemingsplan begeleiden. Daarna kun je een ondernemingsnummer aanvragen en eraan beginnen. In Trends podcasts vind je alle podcasts van Trends en Trends Z, netjes geordend volgens publicatie. De redactie van Trends brengt u verschillende podcasts over wat onze wereld en maatschappij beheerst. Vanuit diverse invalshoeken en met een uitgesproken focus op economie en ondernemingen, op business, personal finance en beleggen. Onafhankelijk, relevant, telkens constructief en toekomstgericht.

Jenny: Inclusive capital advocacy.The future of regulated investment crowdfunding is being shaped not just by markets but by the voices that advocate for fair, effective policies in Washington. Jenny Kassan, President of the Crowdfunding Professional Association (CfPA), has emerged as a leading champion of this work. The association's upcoming summit and the advocacy efforts that precede it illustrate the growing momentum behind this movement.Jenny explained, “The Crowdfunding Professional Association represents the crowdfunding industry, the regulated investment crowdfunding industry. This is everyone who's involved in trying to make it easier for small businesses, entrepreneurs, changemakers, artists, everyone who has the ability to offer an investment opportunity to be able to offer it to everybody, everybody in the country.”The October summit in Washington, D.C., highlights the growing traction of this movement. Jenny shared that this year, the CfPA is securing more meetings with members of Congress and the Senate who influence financial market rules. That progress signals a growing recognition of the industry's role in democratizing access to capital.Speakers at the summit will include SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce, known for her balanced approach to fostering innovation while maintaining sensible regulation, and James Murphy from FINRA, the body overseeing day-to-day regulation of crowdfunding platforms. These perspectives, alongside industry leaders like Mark Elenowitz, will help issuers, investors, and platforms better navigate the complex regulatory landscape.Jenny was candid about the rapid changes unfolding in this space, especially around emerging technologies like crypto. “The industry is really evolving quickly. Even though there haven't been any law changes yet, there's been a huge, huge evolution and rapid change in the space,” she noted. Panels on crypto and digital assets will explore how innovation intersects with regulation, underscoring the importance of ongoing dialogue with policymakers.The CfPA summit is more than a conference. It is the culmination of months of advocacy, uniting stakeholders to strengthen the rules that govern investment crowdfunding. By convening entrepreneurs, investors, regulators, and industry professionals, the event will serve as a platform to share knowledge, influence policy, and build momentum for greater capital access.Jenny's leadership highlights that regulated investment crowdfunding is still young but brimming with potential. Her efforts—and those of the CfPA—help ensure the system grows into a tool that works for everyone.tl;dr:Jenny Kassan explained how the Crowdfunding Professional Association advocates in Washington to strengthen rules for regulated investment crowdfunding.She shared details about the upcoming summit, including meetings with legislators, regulators, and key industry experts.Jenny emphasized the importance of balanced regulation, highlighting insights from SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce and FINRA's James Murphy.She described how crowdfunding empowers underrepresented entrepreneurs, often outperforming traditional fundraising sources like venture capital and banks.Jenny encouraged participation in the CfPA and its summit, reminding listeners that inclusive access to capital benefits everyone.How to Develop Inclusive Capital Advocacy As a SuperpowerJenny described her superpower as her ability to advocate for inclusive access to capital. She explained that her passion lies in helping entrepreneurs—especially those underrepresented in traditional finance—gain the resources they need to thrive. As she put it, “We see like women, people of color, people that don't come from the top schools or from wealthy families often are quite successful with regulation crowdfunding, sometimes even more so. That's the reason I love the tool so much.”Her superpower is evident in her consistent championing of entrepreneurs who face barriers to traditional funding. By focusing on regulated investment crowdfunding, she empowers founders to bypass gatekeepers and reach communities of investors who share their vision.One story illustrates this clearly: Jenny highlighted data showing that diverse and under-resourced founders often raise more successfully through crowdfunding than through venture capital, angel groups, or banks. That success proves that crowdfunding levels the playing field. For Jenny, seeing women and people of color outperform traditional fundraising norms affirms the power of her mission.Jenny offered valuable insights for developing this superpower:Recognize who is excluded by traditional systems and design new ways to include them.Focus on building tools and structures that make participation easier for everyone.Ground advocacy in data that demonstrates success outside the status quo.Persist in championing change even when mainstream systems resist.By following Jenny's example and advice, you can make inclusive capital advocacy a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Today we're talking about Todd McFarlane's new crowdfunding campaign. You have several options of Harley Quinn from the Suicide Squad movie. We're thinking this is a surprisingly cheap offering from Todd for a DC Comics action figure. What do you think?

Sumner as The Monster. Dialogue editing and sound design by Stephen Indrisano. Music by Amber Devereux. Transcript here. More about Re: Frankenstein:Re: Frankenstein is an audio adaptation of Frankenstein from the team behind Re: Dracula and Re: Carmilla. We had such a great time adapting these two gothic novels and we can't wait to take on something less vampiric and a little more… monstrous? Or perhaps it's a little more human.This show will be a faithful, text-accurate adaptation of Mary Shelly's novel, featuring a full cast to tug on your heartstrings and sound design to keep you on the edge of your seat. Featuring a award winning all-trans cast, Re: Frankenstein will bring this Gothic masterpiece to glorious un-life. Did you love The Magnus Archives, The Silt Verses, Camlann, The Sheridan Tapes, or Midnight Burger? What about Final Fantasy XIV, Zombies Run, or Marvel Move? Voice actors from all these productions are part of Re: Frankenstein! And that's not to mention our crew, who can be found behind shows like The Bright Sessions, The Tower, ROGUEMAKER, Shelterwood, Inn Between, and Someone Dies In This Elevator. Each chapter of Frankenstein is an episode of Re: Frankenstein. Content warnings will be present at the top of episodes, where needed.  Re: Frankenstein will be released for free, but those who help us fund the project will get additional perks, including a full audiobook, digital downloads, shout-outs, and more! The cast of Re: Frankenstein will consist entirely of transgender voice actors. We believe that now is the time to lift and celebrate trans voices and artists; to tell stories about monsters and those who get to define them; and to pay everyone involved a fair and equitable wage. Your support will go directly towards our incredible cast and crew.  Find us online:Patreon: ⁠https://www.patreon.com/redracula⁠Merch: ⁠https://store.dftba.com/collections/re-dracula⁠Website: ⁠www.ReDracula.live⁠Tumblr: ⁠https://www.tumblr.com/re-dracula⁠Bloody Disgusting Website: ⁠www.Bloody-Disgusting.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In today's episode, Mark shared insights about his latest independent film, We Could Be Heroes, which is raising capital via a regulated crowdfunding campaign on Wefunder.At its heart, We Could Be Heroes is a heartfelt story about chosen family, set against the backdrop of a quirky comedy-crime plot. “Family is what you make of it—it's not necessarily what you have or don't have,” Mark explained. The film follows a 14-year-old gamer girl and her neurotic, wannabe-detective neighbor as they team up to solve a mystery. While the premise is lighthearted and fun, Mark emphasized the deeper emotional message, adding, “At the end, it's heartfelt, it's sincere, it's honest.”Mark's journey from Hollywood actor to independent filmmaker is inspiring in its own right. Having appeared in popular shows like Justified, Teen Wolf, and 9-1-1: Lone Star, he has taken his years of experience on set and channeled them into creating films that resonate on a personal level. “It has to be a story or a message that really, really sticks with you,” Mark said, reflecting on the challenges of making independent films with modest budgets.Through crowdfunding, Mark aims to bring We Could Be Heroes to life while engaging directly with supporters. With a budget of $1.1 million, including equity raised through Wefunder, the film is positioned to maximize impact with a lean, smart production approach. “We're essentially saying we're making a three- to four-million-dollar movie for less than a million,” Mark explained, highlighting the importance of resourcefulness and creativity.Beyond its entertainment value, We Could Be Heroes is designed to connect with audiences emotionally, especially young gamers. “There are 3.2 billion gamers worldwide,” Mark noted, emphasizing the film's potential to draw a global audience.For those interested in supporting We Could Be Heroes, you can find the campaign on Wefunder at s4g.biz/heroes.

Gene Eidelman, Cofounder of Azure Printed Homes, has proven this with a groundbreaking approach to construction. Using recycled plastics, his company is addressing the housing crisis while reducing environmental impact.Gene's journey started six years ago with a simple idea: to build homes that are more affordable and sustainable. After two and a half years of experimentation, he and his team developed a prototype during the COVID-19 pandemic. “The unit we developed actually is the one that's in the video now,” he shared in today's episode. “It's a backyard studio that can be built very quickly in our factory. It takes us 24 hours to print and five days to finish.”From these modest beginnings, Azure Printed Homes has expanded its scope. Today, the company produces a range of units, from luxury eco-resorts to affordable housing subdivisions and even villages for the unhoused. “This whole spectrum of products… [is] coming out from our factory,” Gene said. “It's just been an incredible journey.”What sets Azure apart isn't just the technology—it's the mission. By repurposing recycled plastic, the company builds homes 70% faster and 30% cheaper than traditional methods. With construction being one of the largest contributors to global waste, this innovation is a game-changer.Gene also shared exciting news: Azure was recently named a winner in Pepperdine University's Most Fundable Companies competition, an accolade awarded after a rigorous review of companies from across the country. This recognition highlights not just the company's innovation but also its potential to scale.Azure Printed Homes is currently raising capital through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on WeFunder, offering everyday investors a chance to join their journey. “Crowdfunding democratizes the investment,” Gene explained. “People… understand good design, affordable housing, [and] sustainability.”Gene's story isn't just about building homes—it's about building solutions to some of society's most pressing challenges. By combining sustainability, innovation, and a clear social impact, he's creating a blueprint for a better future.tl;dr:Gene Eidelman cofounded Azure Printed Homes to build faster, cheaper, and sustainable homes using recycled plastics.Azure's innovative units range from eco-resorts to affordable housing for the unhoused, addressing critical needs.Recently named one of Pepperdine University's Most Fundable Companies, Azure's success continues to grow.Gene credits his relentless work ethic and crowdfunding campaigns for raising over $7.2 million.Azure's WeFunder campaign, closing October 15, is the last chance for non-accredited investors to join.How to Develop Relentless Work Ethic As a SuperpowerGene's superpower, as he explained in today's episode, is rooted in his relentless work ethic and determination. Reflecting on his childhood as a refugee from Ukraine, he shared lessons from his father: “You don't know whether you're smarter than the person next to you. But one thing you can do, you can outwork them.” This philosophy fueled his success, from arriving in the U.S. with no English to launching a groundbreaking company. Gene emphasized, “Just never give up… no matter how tough it is.”Illustrative Story:Gene shared how his perseverance shaped Azure Printed Homes' journey. During a challenging time for venture funding, the company turned to crowdfunding, despite Gene initially doubting its feasibility. Over six successful campaigns, Azure raised over $7.2 million, with a third coming from everyday investors. Gene's commitment to his vision kept him pushing forward, even when traditional funding sources dried up. This unwavering determination allowed Azure to scale and achieve recognition as one of Pepperdine University's Most Fundable Companies.Tips for Developing the Superpower:Don't Give Up: Pursue your goals relentlessly, even when faced with repeated setbacks.Seek Product-Market Fit: Validate your ideas by talking to potential customers early and often.Embrace Rejection: Treat every “no” as a step closer to a “yes.”Leverage Crowdfunding: Democratize access to funding by inviting community support for your vision.Work Harder: Outwork others to gain an edge in achieving your goals.By following Gene's example and advice, you can make a relentless work ethic a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

With this project, Gregory is not only telling an intriguing story but also building a bridge between art and community through crowdfunding on WeFunder, where anyone can invest in the film for as little as $100.The film, a 90s-era psychological thriller, follows three high school seniors in a post-industrial East Coast town as they navigate a series of events after witnessing a murder. Gregory explained that the story draws on his own experiences growing up in Norristown, as well as his observations of the town's transformation. “This story came to me based on a lot of kind of past experiences. And I just took that and kind of heightened it into fiction,” Gregory shared.After spending a decade in Los Angeles honing his skills in acting and directing—two of his films even premiered at Cannes—Gregory returned to his roots in Pennsylvania. Inspired by the town's history and architecture, he envisioned Elmwood Park as more than just a thrilling night at the movies. “It's not just an exciting kind of thriller of a film… but it also could serve over time as like an architectural time capsule of this place,” he said.Crowdfunding plays a pivotal role in turning this vision into reality. Gregory saw platforms like WeFunder as a way to democratize investing in film. “What I liked about it is… you don't just get a T-shirt. You get actual ownership in the film and can collect on it for the rest of your life,” he explained. By inviting the community to invest, he hopes to inspire others to pursue creative endeavors, just as he was inspired by local role models like Kate Flannery, a fellow Norristown native and actor known for The Office.Gregory's approach is refreshingly inclusive. He shared, “Even if it makes one kid around here think that they can make a film… I think that's super important.” By leveraging crowdfunding to connect with his community, Gregory is creating an opportunity for people to feel both figuratively and literally invested in the film.Filmmaking is no small feat, but Gregory's blend of creativity, vulnerability, and community-focused strategy is proof that art can thrive outside traditional Hollywood systems. Visit to learn more about this project and how you can be part of it.tl;dr:Gregory Falatek shares how Elmwood Park, a psychological thriller, draws on his hometown's history.Crowdfunding on WeFunder enables the public to invest in Elmwood Park for as little as $100.Gregory highlights how returning to Norristown inspired him to preserve local architecture and culture.Vulnerability, Gregory's superpower, fuels his creativity and helps him connect with others authentically.Gregory invites everyone to join the project, emphasizing community impact and the democratization of film.How to Develop Vulnerability As a SuperpowerGregory's superpower is his ability to embrace vulnerability, a skill he credits for enhancing his creativity and human connection. He explained, “I think my creativity comes from being open and vulnerable, actually, in my art.” Gregory shared that growing up, he struggled with being misunderstood, which made him hesitant to open up. Over time, he learned that vulnerability allows for deeper connections, both in life and on screen. “You need this deep sense of vulnerability to make [characters] human… even if you're being funny about it,” he said.Gregory recalled his first feature film as a pivotal moment where he embraced vulnerability. Playing a “burnout type” character, he had to let go of self-consciousness to bring authenticity to the role. Surrounded by cameras and crew, he stayed true to his character, ensuring the performance resonated with humanity and heart. His openness not only elevated his acting but also helped him connect with the people around him, demonstrating the power of vulnerability in creating impactful art.Actionable Tips for Developing Vulnerability:Open Up in Everyday Conversations: Practice vulnerability by being honest and open in your daily interactions with others.Avoid Judging Yourself or Others: Approach creative work and relationships without judgment, allowing for genuine connections.Learn from Observation: Pay attention to how others express vulnerability, and apply those insights to your own life.Embrace Discomfort: Accept that being vulnerable may feel awkward at first, but it leads to growth and connection.By following Gregory's example and advice, you can make vulnerability a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Sam Johnson, writer of Geek Girl and Cabra Cini returns to the ComixLaunch pod to chat about changes in crowdfunding, going all in on pre-launch and crossing over characters from your comic book universes.

What happens when a message meant for the wrong drummer leads to the right band? On this episode of Bringin' It Backwards, Adam Lisicky sits down with Andres and Patrick of Stockholm's own Self Deception to unravel a musical story packed with serendipity, stubborn determination, and fearless reinvention. From awkward high school musicals to their earliest days hustling through Stockholm's music scene, Andres and Patrick talk candidly about band origins, creative breakthroughs, and why they never fit neatly into Sweden's rock landscape. It's not all easy—Andres opens up about lonely beginnings, bold gestures for love, and using music to finally feel seen. The guys share how the Internet—and a relentless DIY spirit—helped them push past gatekeepers, build a global fanbase, and raise enough funds in just days to record on their own terms. You'll hear the real story behind viral tracks like “Hysteria” and “Matthew McConaughey,” their adventures in touring and crowdfunding, and what it's like to finally embrace total creative freedom with their upcoming album, Destroy the Art. Expect honest advice, plenty of laughs, and a reminder that every overnight success is years in the making.
