Free Lessons for 360 Mastery

To navigate the ever-evolving media landscape, I take a holistic 360-degree approach in my teaching and coaching, ensuring you have both the technical prowess and the mental fortitude needed for long-term success.

As a 360 Creative Coach, I’m dedicated to sharing the lessons and techniques that have shaped my own journey. These insights, gleaned from mentors and personal experience, are designed to simplify your creative path, so you can sidestep common pitfalls and accelerate your progress.

Explore over 1,000 episodes I’ve created, available for free across various platforms.

How-To Guides

Many would-be creative people I know begin their artistic journey with so much excitement, as they should, but as soon as they lack a certain skill-set they abandon their project. It’s very sad to see and so I never want to see you fall into that position. That is why I FREELY offer up the expertise I’ve gained along the way in multiple disciplines of the entertainment industry, which range from: storytelling, editing, Photoshop, website development, podcasting, sound design, pre-production planning, hosting, workflow management and organization, marketing and SEO, camera shooting formats and techniques, graphic design, live production, cross-platform publishing, streaming, lighting, recording methods, etc.
Ever wondered what an animation pipeline is and why it’s essential for creating great animation? In this episode, I break it all down:

- What is an animation pipeline? A streamline process in place for your animated project (TV show or film).

-Why is it so important? How a strong pipeline saves time, improves quality, and keeps projects on track.

-How I built my own pipeline. Lessons learned from trial, error, and finding what works best for my team and process.

Whether you're an indie filmmaker or an animation enthusiast, this episode will give you insights into how animation comes to life and why every frame counts.

Master Mental Fortitude

You can’t just rely on your technical skills as a creative. You must also master mental fortitude in order to achieve your creative endeavors otherwise you’ll end up working against yourself, burning out, depressed, or worse. I can speak to this firsthand which is why I’ve decided to stress the importance of fortifying your mind as well as your craftsmanship. The lessons here offer up my knowledge ranging from stoicism, essentialism, Toltec wisdom, Taoism, Buddhism, logo-therapy and other schools of thought and combine them with real world applications for your everyday life and art. Don’t make the same mistakes I did. Let these insights become your foundational pillars so you can find success in your work and personal life.
Success isn’t built overnight—it’s the result of years of dedication, learning, and persistence. In this episode, I reflect on my 8+ years building my current creative path, stacked on nearly 20 years in entertainment. I share the lessons I’ve learned about honing your craft, studying the early careers of people you admire, and staying committed to the long game. If you’re ready to build a career with longevity, this episode is for you.

In this episode, we delve into the idea of setting boundaries around your time and energy, especially when you're able but not necessarily available to help. Discover why recognizing your limits—even when you’re fully capable—is essential to maintaining balance, fostering respect for your own commitments, and creating space for personal well-being.

When submitting a query, applying for a grant, or reaching for a job opportunity, it’s easy to get attached to the outcome. But what if the key to peace of mind lies not in the results, but in the process? In this episode, we discuss the mental shift of focusing on what you can control: the breadth and quality of your outreach. By letting go of the outcome and embracing the act of reaching out to the right people, in the right numbers, you’ll find clarity, resilience, and a greater sense of calm through each submission.

In this episode, I discuss the powerful mindset shift from saying "I've been busy" to "I've been productive." It may seem like a small change, but it puts you back in control of your time and helps showcase that you're actively working on what matters, instead of feeling overwhelmed by tasks. Let's start owning our productivity and making it a positive reflection of our efforts!
