Executive Producer MICKEY FISHER
Episode - 408
In this episode Hilliard has a super fun, 2 hour conversation with executive producer Mickey Fisher (one of the nicest, most giving guys we know) who created/developed such shows as EXTANT, REVERIE and wrote/produced on the series JACK RYAN, MARS and THE STRAIN! We talk about Mickey's long 20 year journey to becoming one of those Hollywood overnight success stories we all hear about. Mickey goes deep into lessons learned on his way up, working and struggling in theater as an actor and playwright, how he pivoted to an indie filmmaker and later realized that those career choices helped him to be prepared for when Hollywood finally did open the door and gave him his first green light to series... ON HIS 40th BIRTHDAY!
We also talk about his amazing tips on pitching, growing/learning fast in writers' rooms, producing episodes, being kind to everyone and so much more! Follow Mickey on Twitter @MickeyFisher73 and don't forget to subscribe to his Newsletter: extantstorytech.com
