Greetings, and welcome to the Coffee with Creators Podcast! Jordan Pulmano is our guest today and he is a California-based director and cinematographer that focuses on live event coverage and production. Today, he discusses his humble beginnings, overcoming challenges posed by the pandemic, and how he came to terms with the idea of continual change in his line of work.


About the Guest


[01:37] Jordan started as an assistant editor on a documentary. He collaborated with a close friend, and as he grew more involved in the production, he took on the roles of cameraman and editor.


Taking on Challenges


[08:06] Jordan believes it is crucial to handle the workload and maintain a professional attitude when working in the music and film industries. Managing these ties and managing relationships in another business are two very different things, yet you must handle both and be dependable in both.


Distinguish your goals


[20:16] It's so easy to get lost when you're young and new, and you're just extremely excited, especially when attempting to create something for yourself, such as a name.


The Effects of Pandemic


[22:29] During the epidemic, Jordan's situation changed dramatically. He was doing 80% of the music work at the time, and the production staff was overworked. Suddenly dropped, and Jordan struggled because that was his source of income. That's when he decided to leave the manufacturing industry and focus on E-commerce and internet platforms.


Building online influence


[31:43] Jordan has been motivated to return to social media to create a YouTube channel and post material. Jordan is attempting to organize his schedule to devote more time to developing his online presence.


The Importance of Goalsetting.


[35:00] If you are not deliberate in your actions, they are meaningless. However, if you have a goal, regardless of how unclear it may seem at the moment or how seemingly impossible it may appear, it is acceptable as long as you have one as long as you have that one reason that motivates you to progress.


Adapting to Changes


[43:23] Jordan does not feel as if he is straining to adjust to changes in his profession, and he thinks because he is still young. At the outset, he embraced the concept of perpetual change.


The Impostor Syndrome


[47:05] Jordan continues to experience impostor syndrome whenever he uploads fresh footage to his YouTube channel. He believes this is also because his YouTube channel is still relatively new, and some may be put off by the type of content he uploads on his YouTube.
