How Winning An Emmy Killed Impostor Syndrome with Alejandro Mendoza @Mendozallopis I Beyond The Cut Podcast

Alejandro was one of the first people to reach out and give praise to what I was building with the Creator's Cut content so it was cool to be able to give him his flowers as well and pick his brain about video creation. He's only been doing this for about 5 years and already has a successful career as a filmmaker and cinematographer working with brands like Hennessy, Pet's Smart, and Virgin Voyages while creating cinematic masterpieces when traveling. One of his biggest accomplishments was winning an Emmy for his short film 'Bully' back in 2022 and he uses that win to help push his creativity forward. I hope y'all enjoy this episode. Please send Alejandro some love and check out his work and socials. I've linked it all down below.
