We had the good fortune of connecting with Anthony Palmini and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Anthony, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I always felt that if I could be in control of my own business I could do much more than waiting around for another company to give me a chance to do the things I know I could do. I gave myself the freedom to fail. If i started this business and nothing worked out I could always go back to the normal job since that will always be there. I knew that I needed more time to invest on all the areas that were not creative (networking , building my website and demos) .
Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
My journey has been a long one and one filled with many opportunities for my various skills to shine. At the start I wanted to just be an actor and during that time I found that roles for Latinos were very few and roles I thought I could do were never given to me because I didnt fit he “type”. Frustrated by this I decided to learn how to write screenplays and director films. This fueled me to believe that I could make my own luck and I learned everything I could about the filmmaking side of entertainment. I think became a professional editor and that in turn led to my first gig as a voice over actor. Full circle I now know what it takes to maintain a project and how many people it takes to get in done correctly. My skills has not only made me super understanding but knowledgeable of how to get things done right.
Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I would like to thank Michael Diaz for always pushing me to do great projects together with him and my other creative partner Jaime Fernandez. I would like to thank the other member of the sketch group I am a part of called Room28. Each individual cast member has elevated my acting, writing and directing skills just by watching these super talented people do their thing.
