Episode 11: Executive Producer Kelvin Mok

Kelvin Mok has been producing TV commercials for almost two decades. He didn't set out to work in commercials but when he did the math after selling his thesis documentary film he decided that perhaps 'art' films don't quite have the ROI he was hoping for. Since then he has produced international spots for McDonalds, Coke, KFC, Volkswagon, and many other world-renowned brands.

During his conversation with Burman, they talk about jumping into the deep-end doing jobs you might not be qualified for; navigating bullsh*t in the biz; and the importance of understanding at the end of the day it's just a job.
