Welcome to Season 2 of The Film Mechanics Screenwriting Podcast w/ Deri Tyton. This episode we switched it up a bit and talked to the hilarious, Hollywood comedy tv-writer, Lee House. Lee adds his personal touch to this episode as he discusses his journey from Lench Mob Records (Ice Cube's old label) to the writing staff of UPN's One On One (starring Flex Alexander and Kyla Pratt). This episode you'll get to hear Lee and I discuss:
1) How To Pitch and Engage An Executive, Quickly
2) Dealing In The Business of "NO"
3) The Purpose of Building Thick Skin
Lee's spark of spontaneity and gut-punching truthfulness comes from years of taking "generals"(meetings executives/producers) with some of the most powerful industry heads. He, cathartically, opens up to Deri about his own struggles to get his work produced, which he gives in a dope metaphor pertaining to a selling a VW Bug.
