Navy SEAL Filmmaker Remi Adeleke | Mike Ritland Podcast Episode 147

Remi Adeleke has a lot on his plate. Between writing, directing, acting, producing, and even authoring his new book 'Chameleon: A Black Box Thriller', it's safe to say he's busier than ever, and that's in an industry that's not always easy to work in - film and television. He's also been on the show before - avid listeners might remember his appearance back on Episode 32 to talk about his military career as a SEAL, or when he came back again in Episode 59 to catch up and talk current events. So for his third appearance on Mike Drop - a first for any returning guest of the show - what exactly does he have to talk about? Let's get Hollywood.----------Chapters:00:00 - Intro11:00 - Hollywood Surprises14:46 - Big Budget Pictures21:00 - Moviemaking 10125:43 - A Self-Taught Writer30:36 - AI and the Writer's Strike46:10 - Writer, Actor, Producer, Director57:52 - Bankable Names01:03:07 - What Makes A Good Story?01:17:00 - Targeted Content01:23:33 - Organ Harvesting01:34:19 - Blood Trafficking01:42:30 - Safer Screenwriting01:50:51 - Transformed the Film01:58:21 - Chameleon: A Black Box Thriller----------Support Remi Adeleke -Get Your Copy of 'Chameleon: A Black Box Thriller': https://tr.ee/tdXwjGb0_cLinktree: https://linktr.ee/remiadelekeInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/remiadelekeRemi's Previous Mike Drop Episode (#32): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIh1PYD7xOIRemi's Previous Mike Drop Episode (#59): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VUgoAvFcIo----------Sponsors:1st Phormhttps://www.1stphorm.com/mikedrop | Free shipping on all orders over $75 when you use the link! ----------BUBS NaturalsThe BUBS namesake derives from Glen ‘BUB’ Doherty, who was heroically killed in Benghazi, Libya in 2012.
