"The New York office asked me if I'd like to transfer there as supervisor and a pay raise that was literally three times greater than what I was earning at the time as a 25-year-old ‘newbie' in the world of advertising. My immediate response was: 'No thank you, I want to make movies.' Soon thereafter I accepted a job as a production assistant on a TV show called 'Dream On' which was featured on HBO, for a tiny fraction of the salary I was offered in the ad business. My gut told me that if I took that high-paying job I would be shackled by the proverbial ‘golden handcuffs' and never be able to pursue my passion for the film and TV industry. My gut was spot on and I have been creating a career that I love every day ever since.” Tim Tortora has spent his impressive career in the entertainment industry garnering extensive financial and producing experience before releasing his second book “An Effective Guide to Build Your Path in The Film and TV Industry.” His latest book and companion Community guides aspiring filmmakers through the black box that is building a durable network in film and TV production.

You're couch surfing. You know, it's not always easy.” (24:10) “They can't say Julia will be extraordinary. They have to say Julia is extraordinary right now, and she will be extraordinary in the US.” (25:56) “You've got to be a little insane to do the O1 visa. You've got to be a little delusional. Because if you don't go all in, you're not going to get it.” (32:34) If you have a long-term project that the producer has never encountered your visa and has never gone through human resources with your kind of visa, they might not be down to do it.” (43:22) “It doesn't get easier once you get it. It's just a constant struggle to grow in your career.” (44:20)   Mentioned: Follow Sneha Mendes on Instagram   Sneha's website   Sneha on IMDb   Follow Julia Zanin de Paula on Instagram   Julia's website   Julia on IMDb   Follow Alabama Blonde on Instagram   Strike the Blonde Casting on Instagram     Find No Film School everywhere: On the Web https://nofilmschool.com/   Facebook  https://www.facebook.com/nofilmschool   Twitter  https://twitter.com/nofilmschool   YouTube  https://www.youtube.com/user/nofilmschool Instagram https://www.instagram.com/nofilmschool Send us an email with questions or feedback: podcast@nofilmschool.com!

Entertainment-industry disrupter Franklin Leonard, founder of the Black List, joins this week’s Apple News In Conversation to talk about what’s gone wrong in Hollywood — and how to fix it. Elon Musk convinced Tesla investors to back his pay package. USA Today has more. Paris wanted an AC-free Olympics. Visiting nations had other plans. Washington Post climate correspondent Chico Harlan explains. Today’s episode was guest-hosted by Yasmeen Khan.

June is here, and with it - we are told - the summer. Summer means blockbuster movies, and so Radio 1's Screen Time is here, ready to remind you of what's coming out and when. With The Euros and The Olympics both fighting for your attention this year, there may not be quite as many big movies as you were expecting, but there's still a fair bunch of them, and Ali is here to guide you through the dates in your diary. Plus! Friend of the show and all-round excellent human being Daisy Ridley stops by to chat about her new film, sports biopic Young Woman And The Sea (as well as the fine art of surprising Ali on stage).
