The Jay & Tony Show Show - Vertically Challenged#126 - Hollywood Is Broken, So We Took It to City HallJay and Tony go to City Hall… and accidentally catch democracy doing its weird little job. They break down what exactly the LA City Council just passed and how it could help vertical micro-dramas with tax rebates, easier permits, and fewer hoops for indie creators. So yeah, this matters. Then the episode digs into the pool-camera circus, the latest vertical hype, why "making it cinematic" might be the fastest way to lose an audience, and the real debate over exploitation vs idealism. If you're making verticals, selling verticas, or hate-watching verticals, hit play. Contact: jay@jayandtonyshow.com Instagram: @vertically_challenge...

The Jay & Tony Show Show - Vertically Challenged#125 - She Wrote on The Book on Micro-Dramas and The "Secrets" Aren't What You Think - Part 2Part 2 of Jay & Tony's chat with Isabel Drean gets brutally honest as she explains why so many award-winning writers faceplant in vertical while newcomers run laps around them. They break down the real mechanics of how cliffhangers actually work, why slow-burns collapse in this format, and how ego, elitism, and quiet contempt for female-driven audiences keep the industry stuck. Then it gets real, as they break down vertical money, survival, contracts, burnout, and why speed is now a creative skill. They tackle AI head-on too. Not as a boogeyman, but as a tool. Because refusing to adapt might be the f...

The Jay & Tony Show Show - Vertically Challenged#124 - She Wrote on The Book on Micro-Dramas and The "Secrets" Aren't What You Think - Part 1Jay and Tony sit down with screenwriter and vertical-storytelling juggernaut, Isabel Drean, to trace her weirdly perfect path from acting to entrepreneurship to writing hit scripts at record speed. Isabel breaks down why "tight boxes" (Christmas movies, vertical dramas, all of it) don't crush creativity, they force it to show up. They get into why tropes aren't the villain, how the first five seconds decide your fate, and why the smallest constraints demand the biggest swings. This one's about craft, discipline, and the uncomfortable truth that great storytelling doesn't just come from freedom. It comes from focus. Website: https://isa...

Sure, we all know its champagne ideas and tap-water budgets, but we torch bad pre-production, preach the gospel of shot lists, and explain why casting and wardrobe can save (or sink) your day.
