The interview with Kevin Richardson, a veteran of the film and video game industries, traces his career from sharpening pencils for Sesame Street in high school to producing games for Mattel and pitching films to major studios like Netflix and Warner Brothers. Richardson details his early technical roles at major studios, including Industrial Light and Magic for Return of the Jedi and the core pre-production team for The Brave Little Toaster, and provides unique insight into the business of Hollywood. He emphasizes the need for creatives to focus on telling real, well-executed human stories, especially given the threat of AI taking over jobs and "coming for your imagination" by making slick, cheap content. Richardson breaks down the challenging film pitch process, which begins with an "ironic logline" (a two-sentence summary containing irony) to secure interest, and discusses the importance of securing production partners and having a rough film facsimile before entering the high-stakes meeting.For a summary and to connect with the guest, please visit https://www.linkedin.com/company/business-decoded-podcastProduced by www.andycostafilms.com
