In this episode I chat with actor turned producer and director Jerry Ying. He is one of the Co-Founders of Hero LA and showrunner of Quarantine; a Zoom IGTV series shot during lockdown in partnership with the SAG-AFTRA Covid-19 relief fund.
We talk about:
- The process behind the creation of Quarantine
- Jerry's transition from successful working actor to full time producer/director and business owner.
- The importance of knowing your "Why?" and your businesses "Why?" and values.
- How he never thought of being an actor growing up and coming from a family where academic education was everything.
- How he equates acting to sports and the discipline required.
- The way that the business side of the industry is kept separate from actors.
- Why it is essential to keep being curious and learning about all areas of the business in order to help your chances of achieving your acting goals.
