#178: Debi Wisch (Film & Documentary Producer) (pt. 1 of 2)

This week on the podcast is part one of our interview with Debi Wisch. She's a film and documentary producer, and the founder of Wischful Thinking Productions. We reached out to her after watching The Art of Making It, a superb new documentary she produced that explores the art world through the prism of emerging artists. Debi will address many aspects of filmmaking including suggestions to increase the odds a film is produced, and managing different personalities on a project. In addition to her professional activities, she is also an arts benefactor and has served on the boards of renown arts and cultural institutions throughout the United States. Be sure to tune in to hear Debi's approach to filmmaking and why arts and arts advocacy are so important.
