Welcome to Filmmaking (Actually)!

Why are creatives expected to pour out ideas for free while investors sit back and pick the winners? In every other industry, research and development is a paid department. So why not in film, writing, and the arts?

Tune in as we unpack the broken model, the power dynamics behind it, and whether or not it's finally time to - shocker! - normalize paying creatives for their work.
