Produce Yourself

Terence and Ian discuss the appeal of being in the field vs post, especially when you've got a knack for handling talent.  They share stories and talk about integrated marketing -- when it's done wrong, and how it's done right.  Also, if you're talent, don't leave trash outside your car.  It makes Ian upset.   Executive Producers, showrunners, and production company owners -- Terence Michael and Ian Gelfand have produced over 50 television series and 20 feature films between the two of them.  They're also entrepreneurs, with businesses outside of film and tv, from real estate to start-ups.  Ian lives in New York.  Terence lives in Los Angeles.  This podcast was born from a series of neurotic telephone conversations that began after Terence returned from Louisiana, where he's the executive producer of Duck Dynasty, and attempted to prepare Ian to come on board the next season to direct and showrun.  They both realize they're probably the only two people listening.  And that's okay with them.
