When your world crashes down around you, how do you continue moving on? In 2015, Maryam Myika Day welcomed her daughter Ayodélé Olayinka into the world and said goodbye to her husband. Through that joy and grief came a reckoning and realization of who she wanted to be as an artist going forward in her life, and she reexamined the ways her art could reach others. Maryam shares her inspiring journey from a young dancer in prominent dance companies like the Dance Theatre of Harlem and Broadway's '42nd Street,' to becoming an award-winning filmmaker and screenwriter. Maryam talks about the founding of her production company, Epiphany 3 Films, to create opportunities for herself and others, and her impactful work in film and digital media. She also delves into her personal life, sharing the profound challenges she faced and how these experiences fueled her artistic and professional growth. One way she channeled her grief into action was by writing a book with her daughter, “This is My Story” , that talks about her husband’s passing, what he left behind, and all the ways he is remembered. She also speaks on the importance of mentorship, and her passion for teaching writing and empowering other artists to take a chance on themselves because we just don’t have the time.

This week we talk with a woman who wears soooo many hats, and does it seamlessly. Dani Scott is an actress and producer currently working with Redacted Media. She lives for falling in love with new characters and complex stories, all with the goal of being a go-to comedic actress and award winning filmmaker. She has produced and starred in two features in the last three years, A Christmas Sunset and the upcoming The Demon Detective. She has worked for several comedy shows, as well as NCIS: LA, and has acted in several indie shorts and feature films. After graduating with her degree in acting from the University of Washington, she worked in casting in Seattle and LA for several years, before transitioning back to acting and starting as a producer in 2020. She has a penchant for sweets, is obsessed with dogs, and plans to travel the world her entire life. I LOVE this episode, because it reminds us that we have more control than we think in this crazy industry. Find out how SHE took control and became a wildly successful self-made producer, how her years in casting have helped her in every facet of her career, and her advice to any of you wanting to start producing for yourself! WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT TO HEAR: 1:07 Dani's origin story in the business. How she got to LA, and the incredible advice her mentor, casting director, Jodi Rothfield gave her before moving out. (A must listen for any new actor moving to LA!) 4:55 How she immediately became a casting associate for a major television show, working under head casting director, Lisa Soltau. 7:54 Do casting directors give actors a second chance if they had a bad audition? 11:05 Casting WANTS to find new talent! They really do! 12:45 There is something charming about people on TV. Audiences want to watch the charm - even if you are playing the villain. Don't lose YOUR charm when you start acting! 20:30 The life changing moment Dani knew she wanted to switch gears and focus on acting and producing. 24:28 Working in casting led her to taking acting classes at Stan Kirsch Studios. She would look at other actor's resume's who she thought were great and see where they studied! 25:05 How studying acting at SKS was a game changer for her. 33:34 How she self produced her very first film, A Christmas Sunset, (during the pandemic, no less!) 39:09 How she got A Christmas Sunset to Amazon once it was finished. 40:47 All about her latest produced film, The Demon Detective - and everything she learned to do (or not to do) from her experience producing and acting in A Christmas Sunset. 52:58 For those listening, who are inspired to follow in Dani's footsteps and self create - what is one thing you could do today to help get things moving in the right direction.

Just comedy, just drama, everything mashed together? 8:28 What’s the deal with length? Is shorter really better? Do you need a speed reel? 11:24 Trim the fat of the scene, and make sure it is focused mostly on you (while still making sense, of course). 12:03 “You have served the project by being in it, and now the project needs to serve you”. 13:42 Do you front load your demo with scenes that show famous actors, even if it’s not your best work? 16:55 How do you make your demo reel “pop”. 23:44 All about “air checks” and how to get footage.

Listen as this multi-talented actress, singer and director opens our eyes to the wonderful world of voice narration, an industry untouched by the covid pandemic OR the current double strikes. Learn all the ins and outs and gain a ton of tips and tricks! (Transcript coming soon) **Disclaimer - This was recorded during a record heat wave in LA. There will be a bit of AC noise throughout the episode. We understand the irony, given that this is an episode dedicated to voice acting and the technical aspects of it. 2:48 Elizabeth's journey from England to LA Starting in drama school in the UK. Knowing at a young age she was meant to end up in America. After drama school, joined a networking week in LA and moved out within 6 months. 7:35 What brought her to SKS When she moved to LA, she was auditing classes that were disturbing and left a bad taste in her mouth Had a lunch with a best friend who told her SKS was different and from the first consultation she knew this was the kind of school she wanted to be a part of. "Because there were certain things in the just the formulation of a script that if you don't do them, or if you do do them, it makes it much easier for them to visualize you and see you on screen in their specific show" It was like the heaven's opened up. 10:53 What brought her into voice artistry? Audio dramas that led to audio books Many different little tangents and random roads that led her down this path 13:58 Recording her first audio book Going into a studio vs building her at home studio during covid. Prepping for audio books and the characters. Audio books, audio drama, video games not being affected by the strike or covid. The beauty of being generate income from your own home, doing what you love. There is room for everyone's voice in this world. 23:12 What would she tell someone listening who wants to pursue audio narration? For audio books you do not need an agent. Everything else voice related, you do need an agent. Make a great demo reel. For audiobooks, send your demo to audio book producers and publishing houses. 35:15 Questions from the audience Do you ever struggle with the balance of slowing down your pace, but also trying to maintain the appropriate energy for the performance, Do you annotate your script to help you with changes of energy in the book. How to you maintain your vocal health? How do you go about cultivating relationships with producers and publishers? Any tricks for keeping track of the different characters?…

Listen as he demystifies the process, and find out how this newfound passion has helped him in his acting career. For all the laughs, follow him and his current husband on tiktok @ulyandernesto WHAT YOU'LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE: 2:41 How did you start your social media? *Started 5 years ago with his boyfriend (now "current" husband). *Began filming just for fun and fell in love with the creative process. *Started with the commitment of doing one youtube video a week, knowing that consistency was the most important thing. *Youtube felt a bit oversaturated, so they decided to get an IG account. That began growing much faster, and brands started reaching out. *Follow the money! *Everything changed with TikTok - so much easier to show who you are in video vs images. AND they got in at the beginning before it was oversaturated. 8:15 What makes a video go viral? *Hook in your audience as fast as possible to keep them on the platform as long as possible. *Video content being in "list" form (Buzzfeed is great at this!) *MAKE REALLY GOOD CONTENT. *Capitalize on a current trend. *Sometimes there is no rhyme or reason. You can do everything "right', and it doesn't catch on. *Why Uly prefers videos NOT go viral, and instead cares about the community he is growing, the community that already likes and cares about his content. 12:31 Navigating the success of social media: *How did they navigate their first brand deals and how did they get them? *When did he decide to quit his day job and rely solely on this income? *How important branding is, and how he and Ernesto discovered what they are "selling". *The "I Love Lucy" formula and why it works for them. *How figuring out his branding on social media has helped his branding as an actor. *Has his following helped his acting career? 30:39 What should someone do who is just starting out? *It can be overwhelming at first - so just focus on 5 influencers you would like to model yourself actor. Ask yourself what your "version" of that is. Pay attention to their content. *Rip the bandaid off and just start posting, and realize it's not that scary and it gets easier and easier. *Be authentic...viewers are craving authenticity.…
