Chris’ story is second to none. He started his career as a videographer by making high school football highlight tapes so that him and his friends could get recruited to play college football. After accepting an offer to play Division 1 Football at FAU, Chris continued the evolution into his film career by starting his own production company. Once he graduated, he began training for the NFL but soon realized that he was going to have to make a choice: Pursue his career in video or his career in the NFL.Chris’ choice to pursue his creative passion landed him here in Minneapolis, MN and even though that decision came with its fair share of strife- it’s a decision that Chris has never regretted making. In our conversation Chris will share just exactly how he got started, what mindset he used to get through the rejection and how he’s been able to be successful in an industry that costs so much to get into, and a few tips he thinks every aspiring creator should know.I hope you all enjoy this episode, and learn a thing or two about how to get into such a competitive industry , and gain some valuable insight into how they’re here.
