Randy Wilkins fell into filmmaking after injuries derailed dreams of playing major league baseball. In this Coffee with Creatives episode, he and I discuss the details of that journey, as well as:
- His work for/with Spike Lee, and how that has been a film school in itself
- Juggling freelance gigs with personal creative work
- Approaching movie-making as a magical, mysterious thing
- The impact one or two people can have on your entire life
- How filmmaking is like baseball
- What to do when people ask for more (hint: give it to them)
- Digging deep into a niche (how and why)
Like many guests on the show so far, I’ve been online friends with Randy for a while now, and it was great to hang out with him in person and talk shop for a while.
To learn more about Randy and his work, check out his site. If you like what he’s doing, you can also help him fund the second season of his web series, Docket 32357 on Seed&Spark.
