Writing, Producing, and being an Executive with Leah Keith - Episode 11

Film Kid Asks is the podcast by film students for aspiring filmmakers. It centres the conversation around what we want to know going into the industry by digging into the origin stories and experiences of professionals working in film.

Episode eleven is a conversation with Leah Keith, who has worked her way up through Hollywood as an executive at Dreamworks and Disney, and more recently a producer and writer from projects like Best. Worst. Weekend. Ever., the polar bears, and Julie and The Phantoms. We discuss her journey through the industry, the role of an executive, and what she's learned from wearing so many different hats, among other things.

New episodes come out every Saturday.

Hosted by Jordan Harvey, edited and produced by Anya Chatterjee
