Directing’s called an art, and Producing a skill – but is trying to do them as a job in the Australian industry really just one long hustle? Is “The Art of The Hustle” an ‘American’ trait we’re learning? And is it an essential trait to have for success in our Industry? Why do creative people hate being seen to ‘work’ for what they love?
Three industry creatives at different stages of their careers – Banijay Screentime CEO Rory Callaghan, Nick Hayden, EP Entertainment at ABC TV, and Michelle Hardy, Producer of the soon-to-be hit sketch comedy series Wham Bam Thank You Ma’am – discuss wearing out your shoe leather in search of a commissioner who understands what you’re saying – and has the dollars to make it happen. And they’ll tell us (and MC Andrew Garrick) if they think they’ve ever really had a pop-the-champagne moment in the world of TV – or expect to in the future.
Guests:
– Rory Callaghan [CEO, Banijay Screentime]
– Nick Hayden [Executive Producer, Entertainment, ABC TV]
– Michelle Hardy [Producer, Wham Bam Thank You Ma’am]
– Andrew Garrick [MC]
