What's The Cost of Doing Work You Care About? Jerrod Carmichael Explains The No Film School Podcast

Filmmakers want to present our craft to the world, and that craft is made with a particular vision. Sometimes sticking to this vision means we will lose out on other opportunities. Comedian and filmmaker, Jerrod Carmichael, explains why he is willing to take that risk.

Stand-up comedy and how it is an immediate art form

Developing thick skin from being a stand-up comedian

Getting the plug pulled on a major project

How his film, On the Count of Three, melds comedy with darkness and honesty
