Ever wondered what it would be like to pack up your life and go on the trip of a lifetime? Magdalena Reilly did just that. On this episode of the LoudaVision Podcast for creative people, this wandering soul shares the tale of how she and her husband left their 9 to 5 jobs, gave up their apartment, put everything in a storage unit, and went on a 3 month exploration of Europe to find out first-hand about eco-cities and environmentalism.

Can we make money doing what we love? Should we aim to be able to use our creativity to pay the bills? Or will keeping our passion away from our paycheck allow for more freedom, because it separates the practical issue of putting food on the table from your creative process? Valentin Farkasch is an Austrian-American filmmaker and photographer. In this episode, he provides his own view on this debate. We talk about the struggles and benefits of freelancing in New York City, how to pursue our creative visions while still making money, what it takes to be a good filmmaker, and how the DSLR revolution affects professional cinematographers.

Audio equipment is expensive... why spend more than you have to?
Hello. My name is Laura Meoli and I'm the host of the LoudaVision Podcast for creative people. I have created an easy online course to teach you everything about creating your very own podcast. --CLICK HERE to learn more-- When starting my podcast, I was using costly camera equipment. Why? I believe that we should try out things we want to try, and not let logistics get in the way. As a filmmaker, I have access to camera equipment and microphones, so I used them to start my podcast. There's no wrong answer as long as it works for you. Eventually, I ended up purchasing microphones and equipment specifically for my podcast. Here's a list of my equipment recommendations for podcasting.

Suz the Rockstar Advocate Thanks for listening to LoudaVision, the podcast for all you creative people out there. I'm your host, filmmaker and artist, Laura Meoli. If you want to find out more about me and get creative tips and inspiration, you can visit LoudaVision.com or follow me on Instagram, Twitter or my Facebook page @LoudaVision. This show brings together creative people of all types so we can break the stereotype of the starving and struggling artists by sharing ways to make money without sacrificing happiness. Let's do that. Today's guest is Suzanne Paulinski, founder of The Rock/Star Advocate. She's a coach, consultant and author helping artists in the music industry and other creative fields find confidence, clarity and time for self-care. Don't we all need that? She also has great marketing tips and resources for artists on her website, TheRockstarAdvocate.com. Hi. Hello. How are you, Suzanne? I'm good. It's so good to be here. Thanks for having me. To be here on Skype. To be in this shared space on the internet. I'm reading your first published book, The Rock/Star Life Planner. It's a really great workbook that I'm using. I've been doing it for about two weeks. Do you want to tell everyone about that? Over these last two and a half, almost three years, I've been working with clients to get them better organized. To get them prioritizing their tasks a little bit better. I kept creating all these different templates for them. At the beginning of this year, I just thought to myself, "I have all these templates collected that I've created over the years, and they lend themselves well to a planner." I remember last December looking for hours at Barnes & Noble's for a planner that really suited my needs. Because there's a creative person that has their own business, we have social media to worry about and worrying about our finances each week and what we're bringing in, all these different things. I wanted to combine the templates I created that included tracking inventory and keeping track of your social media contacts, all of those things. I decided to put them in a book. A good friend of mine from back at my days at Drexel helped me design it and make it look pretty. It was a really fun project for us to work on together. Awesome. It does look very pretty. Thank you. It's an interesting book because when I hear Rock/Star Life Planner, I'm like, "Oh, that sounds like the self-help book." You're a coach and so it would be natural for you to release a self-help book. This is definitely not that. It's more of a journal, more of a guided self-therapy, I would say.

“Think about the toughest times in your life. Usually in those times you go to a good movie, song, or book… you confide in those things that artists create to get you through the hardest times in your life- and they shape the way you look at the world.”- Eternal Optimist, Alex Bondarev. Music was always the dream for today’s guest, who shares his story of being a refugee from Chechnya, immigrating to India and then the United States as a child. With music as his anchor, Alex is the lead singer of “A Moment’s Worth” along with his four best friends. AMW won the Elfenworks Social Justice Award for their uplifting song “Dedicate” and partnered with this non-profit group. Alex discusses the secrets behind their success and longevity in the music industry. With nearly two decades as a musician, Alex has invaluable tips for balancing passions with responsibilities, becoming more disciplined in your creative process, and how to overcome the fear of releasing your work into the world. Speaking of new work, his solo project is called “Conversing with Oceans” and is quickly making waves- landing a one-on-one showcase with Randy Jackson at SXSW. His second single features a collaboration with the Grammy-nominated John Forté, who co-wrote and produced Fugees’ groundbreaking LP The Score. Alex uses his art to help others in need by volunteering with the non-profit “Musicians on Call” and inspires me to think about how my art can be of service to others. I hope he does the same for you.
