For the fifteenth episode of my How It’s Done Podcast I sat down with my long time friend and photographer turned wheel designer Chris Sempek. Chris and I met many years ago through Honda-Tech and have stayed closely in touch ever since.
He’s always had a love for cars that at first just involved working on cars and photography but then ultimately turned into designing wheels for a living. We of course spent some time talking about the present but we took a deep dive into the past and how Chris got to where he is today in both his career and personal life. From getting his degree in Mechanical Engineering from Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) to working for companies such as Fortune Auto and D2Forged Wheels and then ultimately Allied Wheel/Raceline Wheels where he would be a huge part in the launch of Kansei Wheels. We touch on everything such as how Chris got into cars, his education, moving from New York to California, Sempek Wheels, Photography, traveling and much more! Give this a good listen.

For the fifth episode of my podcast, I flew out to Southern California for a weekend and during my stay got the chance to sit down with the one and only Mike Koziel. After doing my interview with Krispy and Anthony/Halcyon you guy kept asking me to do one with Mike and I made it happen! What first drew me to Mike’s work a few years ago was his eye for cinematography and the awesome vibes that all of his videos have. I am also a huge fan of his editing and color grading work. If you haven’t seen one of Mike’s videos yet you owe it to yourself to do that!
Mike just recently joined Porch House Pictures; an award-winning, full-service production house based in Santa Monica, CA. He was kind enough to let us do the interview in their awesome studio and talked to us a little about what they are doing. We also talked about how Mike first getting into videography and cars, college, internships, working on set, moving out to LA, YouTube, working with artists like A$AP Rocky and Rick Ross, Rolling Loud Festival, traveling, Rotiform, H2oi, his advice to people making videos and much more!
