EPISODE 180: Director Sabine Kahwaji
Tuesday Jun 17, 2025
Tuesday Jun 17, 2025
Today I was blessed to have my friend and director Sabine Kahwaji along with her producer Jonathan Akkawi to share their latest film "Altisal" that's making its way on the film festival circuit. From the words of Sabine, "I wrote this film after the tragic Beirut explosion in Aug 2020. Sadly, the completion of the film fell with my dad in South Lebanon when the conflicts erupted this Sept. I was living out my film’s story. It was and still remains a difficult time for many". We spoke a lot about their pre-production process, challenges during their production days including a total 100% reshoot as well as what their experience has been taking Altisal on the film festival circuit where it's been very well received.

I had the pleasure of sitting down, virtually, with Anson & Co for this episode. Some of you may know him from this YouTube channel where Anson offers gear reviews for Sigma and Lumix oriented content, but like with anyone I have on the podcast I want to know their story first and foremost. What inspired them at an early age and how that inspiration for stories led them on the journey they currently are.

I've known Jason for a few years now and it's been long overdue to have him on the podcast to share his story and journey into the industry.

EPISODE 172: Small Business's THINK SMALL, Switch Their Perspectives!

Tuesday Feb 18, 2025
We've all been approached by small businesses looking for content creation or advertising campaigns am I right? The struggle though is that many of them have a "Lacking Mindset" meaning they attribute value to content creation but they say don't have the capital or funds to respectfully pay for the content. That's where we come in to bring light to their "Lacking Mindset" and show them that by looking at the Glass Half Full and paying for high-value content, that their sales and brand equity will grow when they put money BACK into their business.
