Jordan Flack and I met at the Source screening of short films in the Spring, and we hit it off like two guys named Jordan should. We discuss how he is working alongside filmmakers to set them up for a successful production. Jordan is always looking for any new, great opportunity for his directors, the kind of person you want on the team. His title is Co Producer at Contagious LA, and yes I ask him about that too.

You’re gonna love this chat.
