Kyle’s an awesome dude, when he’s not producing/directing/leading all things video at Synthesia, he’ll be working on his short films as that’s been his passion for a long time. Kyle went to film school and has since been working full time in a role that marries both worlds. We talked about a lot! From the nitty gritty of what is really involved in film production, to Kyle’s experiences working at one of the world’s leading AI scaleups, and of course how he balances his time amidst all this!! Did I mention Kyle’s been travelling a lot for work too? Or that he’s worked with Jensen Huang of NVIDIA as well?Here's one interesting thing Kyle mentioned: “When things are getting overwhelming, the important thing is to just take a break. Take a step back and evaluate everything and prioritise the most important things that will influence the chain of events on the other tasks. 🎧 This episode is for you if you’re interested in film, what it is like to work at a leading AI scaleup, how Kyle handles the creative demands from both his work and film and how he balances his life!! 🔥Enjoy the episode, hope this inspires you to just start, and do let me know what you think!!Kyle Odefey's links: 1.
