Griff Furst
Take a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Griff Furst. Griff is: an actor, a producer, a screenwriter, and a director. In this episode we get his origin story. He shares stories from acting class, and how in a ‘domino effect’ sort of way, his career got kicked off from those classes. We chat about being a producer in that role’s various incarnations, where he finds his inspirations for screenwriting, the difficulties managing a film set as it’s director, and what he loves about acting. We cover quite a lot here, but it is all in the name if FUN! We touch a little bit on what it was like growing up on different sets with parents in the business, and lastly, we discuss his newest T-H-R-E-E projects!
