It’s incredibly important because if you can narrow down what you want to do, what you like to do, what you’re best at and what that client looks like when you’re working at your best, it really hones in your marketing strategy and it allows you to let go of some marketing strategies that aren’t going to best suit you.Just because someone doesn’t become your client doesn’t mean they can’t become an advocate or a brand ambassador for you in a small way.[Design] is a service industry. [...] Granted, it’s a luxury service, but it’s still a service.You have to figure out what kind of designer you are and what kind of projects you want to do, and you have to go out and seek architects, contractors, and other partners who also like to do those types of projects, because that is where you’re going to have the most success and the most joy in doing your job.

Space10 Interiors with Jennifer Glynn

JENNIFER GLYNN is a film and commercial producer. She's had her hand in many indie films, including one of my favorites, SOUND OF MY VOICE written by and starring my girl crush, Brit Marling. We gush over how Brit was destined for greatness. A practical nuts and bolts producer, she explains why the UPM and line producer roles are often confused on smaller projects. This particularly chat was recorded in October of 2018, so you may notice that I was still learning to not talk over people....Rough to hear, y'all, but such is life with caca. Gotta show you the progress! This week, we discuss knowing and owning your financial worth, the main differences between making commercials and films, and creating loyalty in Hollywood. Oh, there will not be an episode next week because I'll be at Sundance the premiere of my film, SYLVIE'S LOVE starring Tessa Thompson. Glad you're here and can't wait to hear your thoughts on my chat with Jennifer! She has since produced and line produced multiple award-winning films. One of her early credits also happens to be one of my favorite films, Zal Batmanglij’s SOUND OF MY VOICE, written by and starring Brit Marling. Speaking of Brit, who also created the short lived THE OA for Netflix, (Yes, I’m still bitter about the cancellation!), we gush over our mutual admiration for her. It's impressive and inspiring that she taught herself writing, created roles not being written for women, and carved out her own path. Since then, she has co-produced Neil LaBute’s SOME GIRLS starring Adam Brody and Kristen Bell which premiered at the 2013 SXSW Festival. She also produced BURN COUNTRY starring Dominic Rains, Academy Award Winner Melissa Leo, and James Franco. Additionally, she wrote and directed the short SMORGASBORD starring Academy Award Winner Brie Larson and Sarah Ramos as part of the prestigious American Film Institute Directing Workshop for Women. Jennifer has also produced a number of commercials, music videos, short films and digital campaigns. We compare short form vs long form content, and why she prefers commercials. She also does a great job of breaking down why the UPM and line producer roles are often confused on smaller projects. We explore finding and owning your financial worth in the marketplace. We commiserate on feeling stuck and the lack of loyalty that sometimes exists in Hollywood.
