We're discussing new forms of productions that we've been working on a lot at Miami Video Services. Broadcast-form productions are quite different than your typical sit-down interviews for documentaries. This requires a different set of variables to consider when taking on a new job.

Dave Maze joins us on this episode to discuss how he was able to receive 100% rights to the Kinotika YouTube channel of which he was once the main host.  We're also diving into the features and characteristics of a successful youtube channel and brand. We're analyzing current successful channels and others that used to be in the spotlight and have since dropped off quite a bit.  Building a youtube channel is no walk in the park. Many people seem to want to build a new channel each and every day and expect results to become evident from one day to the next; in this episode, Dave and I are discussing the realities of YouTubing and how it is a very burdensome task.

Taylor Lewis is just one of three brothers who have an equal part in running Atomic City, a full-service production company who have had the opportunity to have great clients such as Amazon. In this episode, Taylor shares with us how they took the initiative to create spec work and in doing so were able to develop a great relationship that led to them being able to direct a multi-million dollar project with Amazon. Jeff Bezos himself was complimenting and also requesting Atomic City on their next project. They've been able to achieve this feat simply by taking great initiative and creating work when there was no work to create simply to impress a potential client.
