    Many creatives dream of working with iconic brands — but few understand what it actually takes to get there. As a creative director with decades of experience at companies like Roxy, DC Shoes, Hollister, and Eddie Bauer, Chris Vestal shares what makes a portfolio stand out, how to navigate the politics of big-budget shoots, and why the energy you bring to set matters just as much as the work you create.

Key Topics Discussed The power of proximity — how Chris went from pinning surf mag pages on his wall to becoming creative director for the very brands that inspired him. Climbing the creative ladder — how scrappy, self-driven experience led to high-budget global campaigns.

    Beyond the Hustle: Filmmaking with Purpose, Balance & Inner Fulfillment - 037

    Success in filmmaking isn’t just about the next big gig—it’s about finding fulfillment beyond the hustle. In this episode of Shotlist, I sit down with Jon Bregel, a filmmaker and creative coach who went from directing a Nike commercial with Spike Lee to walking away from his production company in search of something deeper. Jon’s story is a powerful reminder that chasing external success without internal alignment leads to burnout. We dive into what it really means to build a sustainable creative career, how to recognize when it's time to step back, and why reconnecting with your core values is the key to long-term fulfillment. Key Topics Discussed: The moment everything changed—how a self-funded project led to a career-defining call from Nike. The rise and fall of success—why scaling his production company at full speed led to burnout. Finding balance in the chaos—how prioritizing personal well-being led Jon to redefine his creative path. The power of passion projects—why personal work is essential for longevity in the industry. Breaking the cycle—how Jon now helps filmmakers create careers rooted in purpose, not just hustle. If you’ve ever felt stuck chasing the next gig without a clear sense of purpose, this episode will give you the tools and mindset shifts to rethink your approach Episode Highlights 00:00 Guiding Filmmakers Towards Purpose 05:38 The Nike Call That Changed Everything 09:13 Scaling Up & the Challenges of Running a Production Company 13:42 The Wake-Up Call: Realizing Burnout 22:53 Finding a New Path: Self-Discovery & Coaching 35:28 Battling Self-Doubt & Finding Clarity 48:38 The Illusion of Certainty in Freelancing 57:11 The Nourish Community: A New Kind of Support System 🔗 CONNECT WITH Jon Bregel 📸 Instagram | @jbregel 💻 Website | jonathanbregel.com 👥 Nourish Community Website | www.thenourish.community 📸 Nourish Community Instagram | @thenourish.community 🔗 CONNECT WITH MARSHAL 📸 Instagram | www.instagram.com/marshalchupa 💻 Website | www.marshalchupa.com 👥 Linkedin | www.linkedin.com/in/marshal-chupa-99a7921a8 📄 SHOW NOTES & TRANSCRIPT Visit the website for the transcript and highlights from the conversation - www.shotlistpodcast.com 🎙 ABOUT THE PODCAST This podcast is all about helping emerging cinematographers, photographers, and directors navigate the challenges of making a life and a living behind the lens.
