  • EP 19 - Clifton Winston Prescod III PT. 1 - ATYG

    04/01/2018 Duración: 01h11min

    Another on in the books for ATYG. This week we had photographer Clifton Winston Prescod III, and boy did he drop jewels. Clif detailed the highs and lows of his 10 year career and was especially vulnerable when talking about the psychology of often being the lone black artist in countless settings. His unwavering commitment to humility and fearlessness was ever present in the room and our discourse. We are truly inspired. Clif has had the likes of Nick Cannon, SZA, RZA (see what we did there), and Ryan Leslie in front his camera just to name a few. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show! Peace!

    What's it called? Maslow's. You know, as in Maslow's hierarchy of needs. What's the show about? Tune is as JD and Pete (mainly JD -- blame it on the whiskey) give us the play by play of what making your own pilot is all about; getting over the insecurity of being a couple of newcomers, the massive bouts of impostor syndrome, balanced with the burning desire to make something great. What does it mean to be an actor? A writer? A producer? All those questions answered here! Enjoy. Peace!
