Soundstage Access

It was awesome to welcome on the show Ted Griffin, a director, producer and screenwriter whose credits include OCEAN'S ELEVEN, MATCHSTICK MEN and Martin's Scorsese's THE WOLF OF WALL STREET. Ted has an encyclopedic knowledge of film history, and in today’s conversation we discuss a number of topics: from Ted selling his first script at age 27 and the frustrating first few years working in Hollywood as a screenwriter; his experience writing OCEAN'S ELEVEN, and the creative process behind writing heist films; how meeting Martin Scorsese led to them collaborating on THE KEY TO RESERVA, a Hitchcock-inspired short film; Ted’s favorite memories from the set of THE WOLF OF WALL STREET. All of this… and much more! Make sure you subscribe to Soundstage Access to catch a preview of which guests we'll be interviewing next.
