My name is Julian Gavilanes. I am an actor, filmmaker and now podcaster in NYC, who has an ever-growing fascination with the artists journey. Furthermore, how they've uniquely managed to stick with it through all the inevitable adversity that seems to be a prerequisite for getting to where they want to go.
Many artistic people will say, "you have to be delusional just to believe you even can." And this show attempts to explore how some of my favorite artists in the world learned to cross over from just believing that they could do this, to actually executing these "impossible" aspirations.
Ideally, through these conversations we will impart some level of valuable insight for all of us who are struggling to keep pushing the rock up the hill. Attempt to find the best skills for prioritizing self-care inside and keeping positivity at the forefront of their hearts. Because at the end of the day, no matter what level you reach--it doesn't get and easier. It just gets different. But the good news is, you're not alone. And you're far from inadequate. So, enjoy the talks and stay inspired!

Brian Sutherland is a TV and film actor (Big Sky, Pig, Z Nation, Walker: Independence). He is a Pacific Northwest boy, like Julian who's been working professionally for over two decades. Brian sits down with Julian to discuss how it all got started. Julian discovers that Brian was the catalyst for him to become an actor, after walking into his trailer, while PA'ing on a commercial shoot in WA, that Brian was acting on, and asking him how he got there. Brian took Julian under his wing and offered him all the advice he had. Fast forward a couple months, and these two were on set together acting in Julian's first move, "Fat Kid Rules the World," directed by the one and only Matthew Lillard. Brian talks about his process for getting into character(s). How heavily he leans into the truth of the circumstances, and how he doesn't really care how it comes across to anyone else as long as it gets the performance across how he intended it to come across. He talks about having 18 agents all over the country and finding a way to break all the rules with whatever conditioned approach acting schools try to impose on us. He talks about his coaching practice and how he tries to get his students to break all the rules as well, so they can find something honest inside their efforts. Brian has become one of the most high profile independent film actors in the PNW and is an asset to every film set he goes on. His work is a testament to his craft. And he is most certainly somebody to look out for.
