Today we’d like to introduce you to Danny Machado.
Hi Danny, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I created Danny Machado llc as a beacon of hope in Hollywood. I believe everyone can be in Hollywood and as technology continues to make things more accessible it will only get easier. A few years ago NY taxi tokens cost a fortune and now you can just signup for Uber. We’ve all heard about ai and that’s going to continue to make filmmaking more accessible. Personally, I’m an enigma I’ve taken an unusual route from crew(pa, grip, etc) to producing television shows and movies today. It’s a journey though and I continue to learn and evolve everyday.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Struggles are part of the journey, and challenges are how we grow. You will encounter bad actors, scammers, liars, bad contracts, failed projects, bad weather… the list is endless… but when you’re doing what you love, it’s all worth it.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?
Danny Machado LLC wants to demystify the Hollywood world. If you have a great story reach out to us online. We want to give a voice to the under represented and create a path in to the industry. We do that by being open to working with new writers. We also recently released a new book on Amazon “First Generation Filmmaker: Make it to Hollywood without industry connections”. That book is meant to share the knowledge and inspire others to believe in the dream.
We have a few projects in the works, sold a project and are continuing to ramp up as we approach the end of our first year in business.
Can you talk to us a bit about happiness and what makes you happy?
Family, faith, creativity, opportunity, many things!
