Commercial director Jeremy Warshaw has an uncanny ability to read people and get them to reveal themselves in ways that are surprising and deeply moving. It is Jeremy’s quality of empathy that is at the root of the trust between subject and interviewer.

This is one of my favorite podcasts, because I learned so much about directing real folks from our chat. We talk client-direct work, agency politics and why he brings a “fluffer” to set. Check out his spots on his site or here:

Filmmaker Jeannette Godoy recently crafted 10 short films for Home Helpers, profiling 10 outstanding caregivers, each nominated for Caregiver of the Year. To do so, she and her documentary crew crisscrossed these United States in two action-packed trips. Jeannette shares her diligent prep secrets and shooting techniques. Moreover, she divulges her secret to getting real people to relax on camera. Many had never seen a film crew, let alone be on camera.

I urge you to watch them all, like Christine Villa below, to have a context for this great conversation. Note all of Jeannette’s were uploaded to Youtube in April 2017. The older ones are great stories too, but Jeannette’s have that unique that extra special sauce she brings.
Also check out her Myles Yachts Project:

I love Jeannette madly. As in I am in love with her.

Thanks,

Jordan
