Episode #162: Brantley Gutierrez / Director / Photographer

Director and photographer Brantley Gutierrez joins the podcast to talk about his journey from a kid growing up in Virginia with a love of movies and skateboarding, to chasing his dreams across the country and finally ending up in LA shooting for some of the biggest musicians in the world and forming long lasting relationships with the likes of Paul McCartney and U2.  It's an incredible story that involves a little luck and a lot of perseverance and has led to an amazing body of work including music videos, full length films, commercial direction, photographing for everyone from Rolling Stone to corporate campaigns, and continues to evolve and grow.  During our conversation Brantley tells me about an accidental encounter with Dave Grohl that would alter the course of his career, what it's like being on tour with U2, how he made the switch into directing motion capture and how that continues to evolve, and the advice he gives to those chasing their own creative dreams.   To Learn More About Brantley Gutierrez Visit: https://www.instagram.com/brantleyg/ To Learn More About Visual Revolutionary Visit: https://www.visualrevolutionary.com And Follow On Instagram At: https://www.instagram.com/visualrevolutionary/
