Mercedes Bryce Morgan https://www.imdb.com/name/nm5521959/ talks about building the career that got her "Bone Lake" https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26783625/. From several Marshmello videos, episodes of Stargate Origins, and ten-by-tens, Mercedes has learned a lot.One of her techniques is the pre-pitch meeting. That's a get together (on zoom of course) prior to her pitch. Kind of like a creative brief. And she sees it as an opportunity to find out what they really want. Which is sometimes easier for people to articulate, she learned, as what they don't want.Another is embedding gifs into her shot list and seeing second units not as a budget extra, but as a real cost-saving tool.If you're building a career as a fillmmaker, you won't want to miss out on some pointers that most people don't talk about.---Help our Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/JustShootItPodJoin Matt & Oren at the Just Shoot It mixer!

What if art could heal not just individuals, but the entire world?Meet Oren Fisher - an Israeli artist who believes that creativity transcends borders, politics, and pain to create something the world desperately needs: universal understanding and healing.This is the story of art as the ultimate activism.While headlines divide us, Oren Fisher uses his canvas to unite us. Through his groundbreaking "Lost Works" exhibition in Düsseldorf, Germany, where he recreated Nazi-stolen masterpieces, including missing Picassos, Fisher proved that art can transform historical trauma into collective healing. Audiences didn't just view his work; they wept, they understood, they connected across cultures and generations.Why does Fisher's approach matter now more than ever?In a world that often sees Israel through the lens of conflict, Fisher represents something profound: the Israeli heart that yearns to contribute beauty, healing, and hope to humanity. His art activism demonstrates that Israelis not only want to survive, but also to give the world gifts of understanding, memory, and reconciliation. #ArtActivism #UniversalHealing #IsraeliArt #OrenFisher #LostWorks #ArtDiplomacy #HolocaustRemembrance #GermanIsraeliRelations #CreativeActivism #ArtForPeace #UniversalLanguage #HealingThroughArt https://pod.link/1585604285https://findinginspiration.substack.com/

Hawkins and No Film School. https://nofilmschool.com/u/lostingraceland And you won't want to miss what it was like before smartphones , back when there was a barrier to entry to making video or film.

It may be easier, but it has less value. Meaning most anyone can't make a living as a filmmaker.

En esta reflexión, la Virgen nos recuerda que sus palabras no son simples consejos humanos, sino que llevan dentro el amor de Dios, un amor que quiere salvarnos de ilusiones y hacernos resucitar en Cristo. Y nos pide que ese amor no quede en teoría, sino que se realice en nuestra vida concreta, a través de la oración del corazón, el ayuno, el sacrificio y el amor vivido día a día. Así, nuestras vidas se convierten en sus manos extendidas que llevan el amor de Dios a un mundo que tanto lo necesita.

Efforts to modernize labor law have stalled in Washington for decades, leaving workers vulnerable to delayed contracts, retaliation, and corporate maneuvers. Meanwhile, a new challenge looms for workers: rapid advances in automation and artificial intelligence, which could threaten not only blue-collar jobs but also white-collar professions once thought untouchable.Sean M. O'Brien, general president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, joins Oren to discuss labor's realignment in the Trump era and amid technological change. They discuss the Faster Labor Contracts Act, a new bipartisan proposal to guarantee workers a faster first contract. Additionally, they explore the pitfalls of all-or-nothing union strategies, what it takes to build coalitions across party lines, and how organized labor can and should respond to the coming wave of technological innovation.Further Reading:“Unlock American Prosperity by Passing the Faster Labor Contracts Act,” by Sean M.

Waar hebben we nu toch weer naar zitten kijken? Tadej Pogacar wordt op het WK tijdrijden ingehaald door Remco Evenepoel, die 2,5 minuut achter hem gestart was. Historisch. Bij het eerste tussenpunt deelde de Belg al een enorme tik uit. Hoe kan het dat het verschil zó groot was? En wat belooft dit voor de wegrit? Niek Goedvolk bespreekt het in een nieuwe aflevering van In Het Wiel met Roxane Knetemann en Daniël Dwarswaard. Ook de tijdrit bij de vrouwen komt uitgebreid aan bod, waar een ijzersterke Anna van der Breggen verraste met zilver. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tom Morris https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2730235/ joins Carlyn Hudson - https://www.imdb.com/name/nm3972277 https://www.instagram.com/carlynhudson to talk about their views on making that signature feature film that everyone dreams of, one that is an iconic piece of IP that launches a Jordan Peele-career.And Oren and Matt dive into what that means when you start wanting to own a house, have kids, and think about college -- not your college tuition, but your kids! On the one hand, a successful freelance career in commercials, can make it all happen. And over 10 years, 15 years or more, it can elevate your directing chops beyond what you could have imagined. On the other hand, it can be the very reason why chasing that feature, the one that finally shows your full skill set and ability, is a financial fantasy. Like, why risk losing work while spending 2, 3, or 10 years to make that feature?Ira Glass preached about how you have to stick it out until your talent matches your taste. But is that even possible in a future with AI?And Tom gets into how, after having several features under his belt, what would get him noticed by influential showrunners, was making another short.This is what adulting is like as a filmmaker.

The abundance agenda claims to offer a new path, one centered on housing, energy, and expanded state capacity. But are advocates of abundance offering a genuine political shift? Or are they just repackaging neoliberalism for the Trump era?At the Abundance 2025 Conference, Oren debated Matt Yglesias, editor of Slow Boring, in a session moderated by Marshall Kosloff, host of The Realignment. During the debate, Yglesias framed abundance as a renewal of liberalism, centered on rebuilding capacity in areas long neglected by former generations of liberals. Oren pushed back, arguing that adding a new gloss on a political agenda that can be reduced to mere consumption is no different than a return to the stale establishment consensus that Americans have rejected since 2016.

You think you know how to sell until you hear Oren Klaff talk about it. Today, we're hosting the man behind Pitch Anything and Flip the Script to uncover why most marketers lose deals before they even start. Oren doesn't just challenge conventional sales wisdom. He flips it upside down, showing how neediness kills deals.Oren Klaff is a leading expert in sales, raising capital, and negotiation. As Director of Capital Markets for Intersection Capital, he has helped companies secure billions of dollars in funding. He's a best-selling author, a sought-after speaker for global giants like Google and Xerox, and a pioneer in neuroscience-based persuasion.Oren explains why marketers must learn to hold boundaries, call out clients' “games,” and create consequences on every sales call or risk being dismissed as low status. His approach is raw, counterintuitive, and insanely practical for anyone who needs to persuade at scale. If you're ready to rethink how you pitch, sell, and win deals, this one is for you!In This Episode:- Writing the 'Pitch Anything' book- Why neediness when selling kills deals- Practical sales techniques to break neediness - How to maintain a high status in sales calls- Dealing with the ‘final boss' in negotiations- The importance of setting consequences in sales- Holding clients accountable for their behavior and values- Pitch Anything vs. Flip the ScriptBuy Oren Klaff's Books:Pitch Anything: https://a.co/d/fRAqAby Flip The Script: https://a.co/d/hTcp9lP Listen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel:Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/perpetual-traffic/id1022441491 Follow and listen on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/59lhtIWHw1XXsRmT5HBAuK Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@perpetual_traffic?sub_confirmation=1We Appreciate Your Support!Visit our website: https://perpetualtraffic.com/ Follow us on X: https://x.com/perpetualtraf Connect with Oren Klaff: Website - https://orenklaff.com/ LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/orenklaff/ Connect with Ralph Burns: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ralphburns Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ralphhburns/ Hire Tier11 - https://www.tiereleven.com/apply-now Connect...

Not too long ago, NVIDIA was a niche tech company known for the graphics cards that powered computer gaming. Thanks to skyrocketing growth over the past few years, today, it's a $4 trillion behemoth that designs cutting-edge chips necessary for frontier AI development. It's an American company based in Santa Clara, CA. But, like so many other companies, it relies on foreign firms to manufacture its designs—primarily Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company.Intel is the only major American company that manufactures its own advanced semiconductors, or chips, but the once iconic firm is on an opposite trajectory. In the 1990s and early 2000s, Intel's microprocessors powered over 90% of PCs and the company was one of the world's most valuable. But intel missed the boat on two major tech developments—smartphones and AI—leaving the company a shell of its former glory.NVIDIA soared while Intel declined, but the two share in common a rollercoaster relationship with Washington and the Trump Administration over their ties to China.  After moving to ban NVIDIA from exporting its H20 chip to China, President Trump reversed the ban in exchange for NVIDIA giving a 15% cut of the sales to the US government. Last month, Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan came under fire for his ties to and investments in Chinese companies, leading Trump to call for his immediate resignation. A few weeks later, Trump announced that the US government would take a 10% stake in Intel for about $10 billion in outstanding CHIPS Act grants, and Trump praised Tan for his affirmed commitments to US interests.The two companies are at the heart of the most significant tech policy debates in the world—from industrial policy to how to balance a desire to export American technology with the need to safeguard trade secrets and AI advantages. Evan is joined by Oren Cass, founder and chief economist of American Compass. Oren has been a staunch supporter of the CHIPS Act and industrial policies that he believes are necessary to restore high-tech American manufacturing, particularly in semiconductors. He's also been highly critical of the Administration's recent moves to allow NVIDIA to export more of its chips to China. Read his op-ed in The Washington Post on NVIDIA's H20 and his newsletter on the topic, as well as his recent op-ed in Commonplace on NVIDIA's potential antitrust problems. See his newsletter here for more on his reaction to the U.S. government's equity stake in Intel.

Matt & Oren dive into answering your questions. It's a new format and we hope it clicks! And whether it works or not, there's a new way you can let them know.There's questions from early career filmmakers. What is the one piece of gear filmmakers buy early on, but don't need? What's the best way to invest $100 in film gear? How do you write dialog that feels real?And questions about life on set. Like, what's the most stressful part of directing? What does a director actually do once they're on set? And what are some things that go wrong on every shoot?And they round out the episode with some hacks for tackling the toughest production problems.

Oren Barzilay LIVE on LI in the AM w/ Jay Oliver by JVC Broadcasting

Marvel director Kat Coiro https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0192478 covers everything from working with day players to why directors have to take acting classes. Once an actor herself, Kat has mastered the art of infusing enthusiasm into every set and using that energy to supercharge collaboration. Kat's worn every hat—writer, actor, director, producer, EP, and more. And while CAA found her because of her short film, her deep understanding of each role on set propelled her into a coveted career directing "Marry Me" with Owen Wilson and Jennifer Lopez, "Matlock" with Kathy Bates, Marvel's "She Hulk: Attorney at Law", to name a few. Is there ever over-preparing as a director? Not according to Kat. It's all about putting in the work, asking questions of your showrunner, and really investing into its world. And she doesn't downplay the ability to leverage commercial sensibilities, and pitching with decks and details that can take weeks simply on spec. Join us October 8th for a meetup in @ Lawless Brewery in North Hollywood. Tickets are free, but RSVP at: events.JustShootItpod.comMatt and Oren get Kat to share her go‑to techniques for “talking details through” before stepping on set. And why talking about how you were up all night working on the show, isn't necessarily a good sign. In fact, Kat's a big believer in the importance of self-care in projecting confidence. And mantra is about knowing when :slowing down" unlocks "speeding up". For Kat, relaxing and taking care of yourself is a huge part of a show's overall success. ---Matt's Endorsement: Atlas Obscura App https://app.atlasobscura.com/Oren's Endorsement: Swap wearing your watch on different wrists to avoid tan lines.

Last Friday, the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that President Trump did not have the authority to issue emergency tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), setting up a pivotal Supreme Court battle over the future of the policy tool.Chad Squitieri, professor of law at the Catholic University of America, argues IEEPA's grant to “regulate importation” clearly includes tariffs, while Peter Harrell, nonresident fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, counters that Congress never intended such a blank check. Oren moderates their discussion on how the courts will read the statute and what the ruling will mean for the balance of power between Congress and the White House.Further reading:“The President's Authority to Impose Tariffs” by Chad SquitieriAmicus Brief for Congressional Democrats Opposed to IEEPA Tariffs, co-authored by Peter Harrell“Conflating Taxes With Tariffs: Clear Error in the Federal Circuit's Tariff Opinion” by Chad Squitieri

Producer Oren Koules (SAW 1-10, TWO AND A HALF MEN, DEAD SILENCE, RUN RONNIE RUN, SET IT OFF) joins Adam and Joe to discuss his career journey and the making of his new feature TRUST (in theaters now). From setting up at least half a dozen projects at studios only to have them never get made… to trying his hand at being a studio executive himself… to surrounding himself with talented professionals and learning how to produce on the job… to just how close SAW came to either never being released or being released directly to home video… to the incredible story of the testing scores that changed SAW's fate… to his experience shepherding the franchise for over 20 years now… to how his obligations to TWO AND A HALF MEN and making annual SAW films left him with a long stretch of time when he didn't have time to work on anything else… to the casting and producing of TRUST… to how he picks the projects he produces… to his thoughts on horror/comedies, why slasher films aren't his thing, and why he disagrees with SAW being labeled “torture porn”… this conversation is Producing 101 for anyone looking to become a producer but not being sure what steps to take.

America's political elite assumed Wall Street would finance its future. Instead, private capital chased software and speculation, leaving the nation dependent on foreign supply chains for most manufactured goods. The result is a hollowed-out industrial base that no tax credit alone can fix.Julius Krein, editor of American Affairs and president of the New American Industrial Alliance, joins Oren to lay out the case for a distinctly American sovereign wealth fund, investing in strategic sectors that the market neglects. They discuss where the CHIPS Act falls short, why Intel is exactly the type of firm a potential fund should support, and what the fund's governance should look like.Further reading:“How a Sovereign Wealth Fund Could Reindustrialize America” by Julius Krein“Financing for Critical Industries” by Julius Krein

In the 1990s, Silicon Valley thought access to China would help open their markets and liberalize the nation. Instead, their engagement ended up empowering the CCP and helped build the Chinese surveillance state.Geoffrey Cain, an investigative journalist and author, joins Oren to explain how some Big Tech firms were captured by China, risking U.S. supply chains by making them vulnerable to Chinese coercion and theft. They focus on how Nvidia's recent push to sell advanced AI chips to Beijing will empower Chinese ambitions and undermine American security. Finally, they discuss the only workable solution to the threat of China: a hard break.

America once relied on oceans, industrial might, and large stockpiles to give her strategic depth—the ability to maneuver economically, militarily, and technologically during conflict. But those buffers have eroded in the age of drones, cyberattacks, and supply chains controlled by China.Nadia Schadlow, senior fellow at the Hudson Institute and Deputy National Security Advisor during the first Trump administration, joins Oren to discuss how to rebuild strategic depth in an age of globalization and massive technological change. They explore how modern conflicts demand scalable production over bespoke systems, America's bureaucratic roadblocks slowing progress, and the necessity of allies and commercial industry in restoring deterrence. Finally, Schadlow outlines concrete steps the Trump administration could take to close America's most dangerous shortcomings.Further reading:“New Dimensions of Strategic Depth” by Nadia Schadlow

When we last recorded Saturday night, the U.S. had just announced its strike on Iran's nuclear facilities. The U.S. had entered the war. The restrainers had seemingly lost. In the following hours, President Donald Trump said the mission was a “spectacular military success.” And Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the program “obliterated” Iran's nuclear sites.  But there's much more to that story than meets the eye. As Jay Solomon wrote in our pages: Before the U.S. struck, 16 cargo trucks entered the fortified mountain complex and moved unidentified equipment to another location. Are the sites destroyed or merely damaged? Was enriched uranium smuggled out? It all remains unclear. Now the war is heating up. Israel has expanded its bombing campaign beyond nuclear facilities to hit regime targets. Qatar has closed its airspace. And just as we write this, Iran has reportedly fired toward Qatar and Iraq. It all begs the question: Was the strike on Iran's Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant the end of this war—or just the beginning? And what comes next? To understand the state of the nuclear facilities and the state of the war, we've brought together three of the most well-read experts: Michael Oren, Jay Solomon, and Matti Friedman. Oren is the former Israeli ambassador to the U.S. He served from 2009 to 2013. He is also a former Knesset member. He is the author of many books, including Ally: My Journey Across the American-Israeli Divide. Solomon is an investigative journalist who has covered Iran and the region for decades. He just published an explosive piece for The Free Press titled “Did Iran Just Sneak Out Critical Nuclear Material from Fordow?” And, Friedman is our Jerusalem-based columnist, and the author of four books, including his latest, Who by Fire: Leonard Cohen in the Sinai. He just wrote  “After the Bombs: American B-2s Just Changed the Middle East. Now It's Time to Return the Region to the Humans Who Live Here” for our pages. We'll note we recorded this Monday morning, starting around 11 a.m. ET, as a Free Press Live event. To join these, you just need to do one thing—and that's become a Free Press subscriber.
