How I Got My Job at YMH Studios - Catching You Up With Nadav

Become a producer on Patreon:   / verynadavshow   Someone made a subreddit:   / verynadavshow   Today's episode is about how I got my job at YMH Studios that eventually lead to my position as Executive Producer there. I discuss my journey starting in high school making dumb movies with my friends, to college, where I also made dumb movies with my friends. I talk about my summer internships, the importance of finding a mentor and my first job out of college, running the video department for Weedmaps. But even though it was super fun and I have crazy stories about Snoop Dogg and getting B-Real from Cypress Hill too high for a 420 concert, I moved back to Los Angeles to pursue post production from ground zero and taking gigs along the traditional path of that career. I was able to start taking on better and cooler jobs that ended me up with a full time job at an ad agency where we made cool things consistently, but when I got laid off after a merger, I was left in a pickle and forced to think outside the box. I emailed some of my favorite podcasts and pitched them on adding a video component which resulted with my initial connection with Tom Segura and beginning working part time on Your Mom's House Podcast. I even read all my emails attempting to pitch myself for a job with them. I talk about the 2 year period working part time for YMH Podcast and freelancing at Machinima (where I met Enny) that ends with a full time job offer at the newly formed YMH Studios. 0:00 Intro 1:27 Making Movies in High School And College 3:28 Internships at NBC Universal - Getting a Mentor 7:20 Working for Weedmaps 9:23 Moving to LA and Starting Real Career 11:25 Becoming an Assistant Editor 12:28 Working on Narcos Season 1 13:38 Getting Laid Off and Emailing Podcasts 14:41 Reading My Emails to Tom Segura 21:28 Part Time YMH + Freelancing 22:20 VR Power Hour + Machinima 24:40 Full Time Offer 25:39 Words of Advice
