Hello OTT & Transmedia Lounge! My name is Jim Hoey, and I am a new moderator here. I wanted to introduce myself to you and at the end pose a question for the lounge. About me; you can look at my profile to get the nuts and bolts, no need to force you into a novel here in the lounge. My wife and I have been members of Stage 32 since 2014. Lots has gone on in that time. I will do my best to help you find answers and resources here in the lounge. I, along with my wife, have done short form video production on YouTube, short films, and a podcast. The podcast is on hiatus at the moment, but we banked 138 episodes before taking a break. It will be coming back. There are so many forms of creative expression available today opportunities abound for everyone. As I pour through the lounge I am excited to learn what you are all doing, or have done, or are setting out to do. I will do my best to help however I can to get you linked to any information you need. I will also ceaselessly encourage you all to KEEP GOING! I am also moderating the Producing Lounge, and in there I spoke my truth; this business is cold, difficult, hard, full of rejection and frustration, but you are here. You are with your tribe. Let's share ups and downs, lessons, inspirations, and keep going.
My question for this lounge: Have you ever thought of doing, or are you currently doing, a podcast? I feel the opportunities to leverage a podcast for any 'field' are vast and powerful. Writers, producers, directors, musicians, composers, everyone can use the podcast as a simple tool to help advance your career.
I look forward to speaking with you all.
Cheers,
Jim
