#017: Spencer Folmar (28 yrs) on Founding a Hollywood Movie Company, Producing 17 Films, and Graduating in 2.5 Years

Oct 16, 2018

Spencer Folmar (@SpencerFolmar) graduated from Grove City College in 2.5 years with a B.A. in Communications. Today, Spencer is the director and producer of Hard Faith, a Hollywood video production company. Spencer also owns a video distribution company through Veritas Films. Beginning at age 15, Spencer has since produced 17 feature films and created over 1,500 videos for corporate clients. 

Spencer's films have been featured in The Hollywood Reporter, The New York Post, and The LA Time. Fans can easily locate Spencer on IMDB or his personal website. 

In this episode, Spencer and I discuss: 

• The meaning behind "Don't Wait, Create," and how this motto can land you in Hollywood faster than ever before.
• How to rapidly test whether you want to produce films by moving to Hollywood and how to plug into the film scene. 
• How to graduate college in 2.5 years, complete 28 credits per semester, and work 3 part-time jobs at the same time. 

Spencer’s “tweetable” advice: “When is a best time to plant a tree? Yesterday. When is the second best time to plant a tree? Today.”
