Today\\u2019s guest is John Carrington III, a DP and colorist in Greenville, South Carolina. Per John\\u2019s request, I added the explicit tag to the cover art of this episode, even if it isn\\u2019t actually an explicit interview. Although, he did give me an opportunity to make use of some of my sound effects.

\\n

As I mention in the show, this interview was filled with "a-ha" moments for me and I\\u2019m so glad to have this conversation recorded so I can reference back to it. I know you\\u2019ll feel the same. If you are needing some inspiration to progress your own film career, look no further than this interview.

\\n

In this episode, you\\u2019ll get a behind-the-scenes look at his work on Matthew Rojas\' Short Film "DIVA". I was actually able to work G&E on this film and got to see an early cut, and I think Matthew and John were able to make real art together on this project. Go ahead and follow them on social media now because this is a film you don\\u2019t want to miss. 

\\n

We also talk about John\\u2019s early days as a casino blackjack dealer, the experience of having two megachurches fight over you, free trips to China, shooting a film in Mongolia with available light, how being a colorist helped him make relationships in the industry, how investing in personal projects can land you a national commercial, the importance of being inspired by what you shoot with, taking jobs outside your comfort zone, a-ha moments, working with Dylan Hahn on Roland Lewis\\u2019 music video \\u201cWAIT\\u201d, what it\\u2019s like living in Greenville, SC as a DP and surprising his local citizens that he actually lives there.

\\n

John the man and I\\u2019m so glad he was able to take time out of his busy schedule to be on the show. WARNING. Knowledge bombs will be dropped.
