About this episode

Matt and Oren discuss how directors can stand out with guest J.K. Lyons.

Matt and Oren chat with Creative Director JK Lyons about how you can stand out as a director. And they dive deep into what is in your reel, book, or portfolio. Does it make a statement about your personality? Can somebody tell this is truly you? And they talk about actions you can take so that you're part of the CD's team, and not just a hire. Because at the end of the day, that is what makes you more pleasurable to work with.
