This is the Gary V. Audio Experience.

VaynerNation, how are you?

Really nice to be live with you as I've told all of you a limited year of interviews.

But that is because I'm so deep in NFT land.

And what I get to do today really excites me because I think there is a brewing phenomenon in NFT land

on multiple fronts. One is funding and the way the world works.

And to his photography and my guest today really tickled my fancy when I saw what she was up to because she had on both fronts in my opinion.

And we're going to ask her about that. We're going to talk about it full disclosure of a proud owner of many of the NFTs.

Hence how I always work if I believe in something I want to be involved with it.

And now we get to talk to the masterful mind behind it.

Julie Pacino, how are you?

I'm good Gary. Thank you so much for having me. How's it going?

It's going super well for the people out there that don't know you.

Please give me the kind of, you know, comic book number one, the backstory that give us give us two three good minutes here on who you are.

Sure. So hi, hi, my name is Julie Pacino. I'm a photographer and filmmaker.

And I've been my background is primarily in film.

So I've been producing for about 12 years. And over the past I would say like four years I really shifted and started focusing on directing in the independent film world when it comes to producing it's it's quite a grind.

And so I think I started to become a little bit burnt out from producing content for other people.

I love producing. I love the game of it, but at my core I'm an artist. And so there was a side of me that I wasn't really.

Right. You had both, you had both sides, right? You had the creative side and the operational production side. So you were getting fulfilled on the production side and being an operator.

And what you were doing other people's creative thus your creative part was like I want to get a chance. Yeah, because I mean I was I've always been a writer and a photographer. And so like I've been I had been writing screenplays the entire time that I was producing other people's screenplays and sure I was involved in the creative process, which was great.

But I had my own things that I wanted to learn stories I wanted to tell. And so over the past few years I've shifted focus and really made a point to only produce stuff that I had written that I was also directing.
