Ep. 5 Telling Stories That Haven't Been Told Before - A Conversation with Writer, Director and Producer Michael Bina

Welcome back to The Seek The Joy Podcast! ✨

On today’s episode is Michael Bina - writer, director, producer, and a long-time friend of mine. Michael is also the co-founder of Stage 2 Media, an award-winning Los Angeles film and video production company that creates dynamic projects from pre-production all the way through post. 

The timing of this episode is MAGIC if you ask me – this weekend Michael and the rest of Stage 2 Media are finalists in the 2017 Producers Guild of America Make Your Mark Weekend Shorts Competition for their short film Children Of The Revolution (!!!)

What an exciting time and opportunity for him and the rest of Stage 2 Media to even be nominated – I am so proud as his friend. 

We talk all about his writing process, what he’s learned along the way from both success and failure, staying grounded and loyal in the entertainment industry, and so much more. 

Plus, there’s a fun (and embarrassing) throwback story at the end…
