Christina recently launched a new podcast with fellow filmmaker Bri Castellini. Breaking Out of Breaking In is a practical filmmaking podcast about taking your creative destiny into your own hands, reframing what it takes and means to “break in” to a fundamentally broken industry, and making work that gets seen without playing the Hollywood game (or at least, while changing the rules). Listen to the first episode on iTunes or Spotify.
