  • How Actors Bring Icons to Life on Stage | Robert Greene
    2025/12/15

    In this episode of Artists Unveiled, we sit down with Robert Greene, actor, educator, director, and playwright, whose career has been built through consistency, preparation, and a deep respect for the craft.

    Robert has portrayed some of the most recognizable figures in history, including Nelson Mandela, Muhammad Ali, and Thelonious Monk. But what stood out most in this conversation wasn’t the scale of the roles, it was how intentionally he separates himself from them. For Robert, being able to leave the theater and not be recognized isn’t about disappearing. It’s about knowing the character lived fully, independently of him.

    We talk about what it actually takes to sustain a role over years, how preparation evolves once the script is memorized, and why listening, not performing, is often the hardest part of acting. Robert shares how his approach to Mandela changed over time, how stillness became more powerful than delivery, and how responsibility shows up when you’re playing a figure the world already thinks it knows.

    The conversation also moves into discipline, leadership within an ensemble, and how artists learn to show up even when life is heavy. From navigating grief while performing, to understanding when to push through discomfort versus when to protect your well-being, Robert is honest about the parts of the work that aren’t visible to the audience.

    This episode is about longevity. About treating art as a responsibility, not a moment.
    And about why preparation, patience, and self-awareness matter more than recognition.

  • Say Yes Before You’re Ready: Inside a 25-Year Journey Through Music, Failure & Reinvention
    2025/12/01

    In this episode of Artists Unveiled, we sit down with Pier Giacalone, producer, engineer, musician, and a 25-year veteran of the recording industry whose journey moves from tiny club rooms to mixing at Radio City Music Hall, and from college studios to creating records with icons like Regina Spektor and Zayn Malik.

    From turning down Sony because he was on a family trip, to accidentally becoming Zayn’s go-to studio neighbor, Pierre’s story is a reminder that the career you dream of doesn’t unfold in a straight line, it unfolds in the chaos of real life. A phone call in the middle of a Radio City soundcheck changed everything: “Whatever you have to say has to be more important than this.” And it was. “I’m pregnant.”

    Pierre opens up about learning to say yes before feeling ready, the truth about the music industry, why soft skills are more important than gear, and why the artists who survive are the ones who keep reaching even when it’s terrifying.

    This conversation is for anyone trying to create a life around their art without waiting to be chosen, for the ones building their dreams from scratch, in real time, with imperfect steps.

  • The No-Plan-B Blueprint: Hustle, Craft and Surviving the Industry When Talent Isn’t Enough.
    2025/11/15

    In this episode of Artists Unveiled, we sit down with Dennis White, the actor, director, teacher, writer, and creative force whose career is stitched together by persistence, reinvention, and an unshakable devotion to the craft. From Billboard-charting music to hosting at Fuse, from acting alongside Jodie Foster to coaching the next generation of performers, Dennis is a living blueprint for what it means to create with longevity when the world keeps shifting under your feet.

    His story begins long before the cameras, long before the roles. For Dennis, there was never a Plan B, because no one asked him to be an artist. He chose it. He fought for it. And he stayed when most people would have folded.

    Across this conversation, Dennis breaks down the truth people don’t like to say out loud: talent might open a door, but consistency, humility, and spiritual grounding keep you in the room. He talks about teaching actors who never researched their teachers, the grind of building something before social media existed, and why the “microwave era” of instant fame is destroying the craft, but also offering new windows if you’re willing to show up again and again.

    He opens up about the parts of this industry that are brutal and beautiful:
    how life experience shapes performance, how rejection becomes fuel, how you learn to hold spiritual connection in every character, and what it really means to affect someone so deeply that they cry, hate you, or heal because of a role you played.

    Dennis’s honesty is piercing, about burnout, perseverance, the loneliness of rising, and why every artist eventually faces the moment where they must decide:
    Do I walk away, or do I walk in anyway?

    Because for Dennis White, there was never a backup plan.
    Only the work.
    Only the calling.

  • Sarah Anderson the Desygner - The Real Cost of Creation: Time, Money, and the Fear of Unfamiliar
    2025/11/01

    In this episode of Artists Unveiled, we sit down with Sarah Anderson, the powerhouse designer and creative mind behind Born From Stars, a couture label that emerged from loss, resilience, and pure rebirth. From sewing machines that sound like tractor trailers to vintage tulle skirts reborn as runway gowns, Sarah’s story is one of grit wrapped in glitter.

    Born in Massachusetts and forged in New York City’s creative pulse, Sarah moved to the city at 18 with nothing but Forever 21 bags and a dream. Her journey, from bartending and corporate fashion to Harper’s Bazaar features and a debut at New York Fashion Week, reveals what it truly means to build something from the ashes of what once was.

    When a plumbing disaster wiped out her first brand, The Desygn House, she didn’t quit, she reimagined. Born From Stars became her response to destruction: proof that sometimes the universe has to explode for something new to form.

    In this conversation, Sarah talks about the dance between time and money, creating fashion that is genderless and deeply human, and why the story behind a garment is just as important as the stitch that holds it together. She opens up about the realities of self-funding, navigating rejection, staying authentic in the face of social media noise, and holding faith in the process when the world doesn’t yet believe in your dream.

    Her perspective is raw and real, on burnout, manifestation, community, and the courage it takes to keep going when your family doesn’t understand the path you’ve chosen.

    Because Born From Stars isn’t just a brand name.
    It’s a reminder: creation is born from collapse.

  • Paul Richard: Renegade Artist-Redefining What We Call Art
    2025/10/01

    Welcome to the launch episode of Artists Unveiled, the new podcast series from Dream It Make It, a company committed to empowering artists to turn their passion into a thriving career.

    On this inaugural episode, we're setting the bar high as we sit down with Paul Richard, an icon of New York City street art known for his trailblazing sidewalk drip drawings and his reputation as a "renegade artist."

    In a candid conversation, Paul shares his journey from showing paintings in Boston cafes to that moment of "desperation" that led to his most unexpected and successful show: an immediate art exhibit inside a Kmart super discount store, which was covered by the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal.

    Discover his philosophy of trial and error, experimentation, and a methodical work ethic, along with his vital advice for emerging creators: "Don't be your own curator", always take a chance, read the contract and change it if you want.

    If you're an artist looking to move from striving to thriving, this premiere episode is a must-listen for insight into innovative marketing and uncompromising creativity!
