The entertainment industry is smack-dab in the middle of award season, and like most people, one of my favorite parts of tuning in is the acceptance speeches.    Niecy Nash-Betts has almost 100 acting credits, but it was her first time winning an Emmy for Best Supporting Actress in a Dramatic Series, and her speech was nothing short of show-stopping. Join me this week to hear why I believe Niecy Nash-Betts' speech is a reminder we all need, and the power of consistently thanking ourselves for showing up to do the hard, mundane work while clinging to the belief that everything we want is possible.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://jackiedecrinis.com/89

Cinematographer Brendan Uegama, CSC enjoys shooting many different genres, from romantic comedies such as Moonshot, to horror movies such as Child's Play (2019). He enjoys changing his approach to each project depending on the needs of the script. Brendan feels that a good filmmaker knows that the cinematographer is there to serve the story and builds trust with the DP to create the look and feel. As a kid, Brendan was always into photography and art. He and some high school friends shot skate videos of themselves, and soon after he began making motocross videos. He knew then he wanted to get into film and went to film school in Vancouver, Canada and began working his way up. Brendan shot 26 episodes of the CW series Riverdale, including every episode of season two. Being the DP for every chapter of the show meant prep time was very short, and Brendan relied on and trusted his team to do location scouts and work ahead. Riverdale was a great show to do that was fun, creative and led to many other projects for him, such as the show Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, and later, Moonshot. The film Moonshot is a romantic comedy set in space, rather than just a science fiction movie. Mars has been terraformed and colonized and the two main characters are traveling to see their significant others, but fall for each other. Because of the science fiction aspect, everything was storyboarded out and had a decent amount of prep time, and much of Moonshot's science fiction aspects were done with practical effects. Brendan knew where they needed to rely on visual effects ahead of time. The most challenging part of the film to shoot was the spacewalk scene, which involved extensive wirework and visual effects. Brendan's latest project, Mike, a dramatic biography series on Hulu about heavyweight boxer Mike Tyson, is currently streaming.

Hello and welcome to episode 69 of Sing! Dance! Act! Thrive!I’m going to start the show with a little-known fact… For most of my life, I tiptoed around in order to go unnoticed. I was passionate about the performing arts, however, I was way too shy to become a performer. As a photographer, makeup artist, journalist, artist manager, and publicist I could remain behind the scenes, but becoming a coach changed that for me. As a creativity coach, we dig deep into core values, limiting beliefs, and personal motivation for achieving goals. Encouraging my clients to show up authentically, to share vulnerabilities, and to push through their comfort zones motivates me to lead by example and do the same. Now when I notice I am procrastinating on something I examine the why behind it, what fear or limiting belief am I holding on to? Then I work to push through. And I’m grateful for the change! Listeners have heard me say before that the reason I got into coaching was out of frustration that too many artists were coming to me for publicity before they were really ready. In order to get media attention these days, you need a professional brand, interesting stories, and an active social media following. Through coaching I can guide you through developing those step by step, however, lately, I’m realizing that in my attempts to give the people what they want which is for me to teach them about social media and dyi publicity that I’ve started to allow clients to again skip over the foundational work. The foundation is personal branding which is all about expressing your authentic self in all its glory. It is exploring and celebrating your personality, interests, life experiences, core values, beliefs, skills, strengths, and even your weaknesses. It is deeply personal work that I believe strongly that you can’t have long-lasting success if you skip it. I’m sharing this because it is good to take a step back and remember the why behind your vision and notice if you are going off track. So you may notice on the podcast or things I share on social media that I’m going to return to focus on the foundations more so than giving you social media and publicity tips. My guest today knows all about sticking to your vision so much so that Stick to your vision has grown from a song that he wrote and recorded to a book to Ted talks to being a major part of his personal and professional brand. Maestro Fresh Wes is a multi-award-winning recording artist, and the first Canadian Hip Hop artist to have a single hit Gold status on the charts. His iconic 1989 album Symphony In Effect was the first to receive a JUNO Award for Best Rap Recording of the Year, as well as the first Canadian Hip Hop album to go Platinum. A true pioneer, he was also the first Canadian hip hop artist to have a song rank on Billboard’s Top 20 Rap Singles chart, and in 2019 “Let Your Backbone Slide” became the first rap song inducted into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame.Maestro’s songs “Reach For The Sky (feat. Classified and Blue Rodeo)” and “The Distance (feat. Saukrates)” were featured throughout the Olympics, 2014 Winter, and 2016 Summer, respectively.As an actor, Williams has appeared on numerous film and television projects, including The Line — for which he was nominated for a Gemini Award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Featured Supporting Role in a Dramatic Series — and  as the character of Paul Dwyer in the CBC hit sitcom, Mr. D. He has been inducted into the Scarborough Walk of Fame, received the 2003 Reel World Film Festival Trailblazer Award, and was a guest speaker for the Governor-General of Canada’s Summit on Urban Arts. Williams’ paths as both an author and motivational speaker merged with the release of his motivational book, Stick To Your Vision with its foreword written by Public Enemy’s Chuck D, and content long-credited for inspiring fellow Canadian hip hop star Drake.Canada’s indisputable Godfather of hip hop has just unveiled his newest release — an inspirational children’s book, Stick To Your Vision: Young Maestro Goes to School.How is that for an introduction…the man is a legend and a super sweet guy too.

Agam Darshi has worn a lot of hats in her award-winning career in film and television: actress, director, writer, and film festival producer. Agam played Kate, a kickass former con artist, on Sanctuary, and she played undercover cop Khali on CTV's action drama Played. She's got a couple of Leo Awards on her mantle: Best Supporting Performance by a Female in a Feature Length Drama for 2012's Crimes of Mike Recket, and Best Guest Performance by a Female in a Dramatic Series for Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency. In 2013, Agam wrote and directed Fade Out, a short film about an aging starlet struggling with self-doubt on the night of what should have been her triumphant comeback premiere – and a few years later, she followed up with Burning Point, a one-woman theatrical show in which Agam played a wealth of characters of her own creation.In this illuminating interview with Sabrina Furminger, Agam reminisces about the characters she's played (and the characters she wants to play and write in the months and years ahead), how the industry-wide conversation about on-screen representation is affecting her work in the biz, and the impact that becoming a mother to twin boys has had on her art.

Chelah Horsdal recently wrapped on the fourth and final season of The Man in the High Castle, Amazon Prime's gripping adaptation of Philip K. Dick's alternate history novel. Chelah plays Helen Smith, a citizen of the Greater Nazi Reich of New York and wife of SS-Obergruppenführer John Smith (portrayed by Rufus Sewell). Helen is a complicated woman – a fascist with beliefs that don't necessarily align with Chelah's or most viewers – and yet she still manages to inspire empathy and compassion in audiences. That's the magic of Chelah Horsdal, and why she received the Leo Award in 2017 for Best Supporting Performance by a Female in a Dramatic Series for her High Castle role. In this provocative and at times emotional interview with Sabrina Furminger, the veteran actress reflects on her colourful career, her #MeToo and animal activism, and what it was like to grow up the daughter of Canadian folk music legend Valdy.
