Author of 60 Stories About 30 Seconds follows Bruce’s journey from an ambitious film school graduate with little more than $150 to his name to one of the most well-regarded commercial directors in the industry. During his rise to success, he worked with Academy Award winners, world-famous athletes, and even a U.S. President. But, as he quickly learned, it’s not all glitz and glam, and it takes perseverance, hard work, and, most importantly, a sense of humor to make it in the film industry. 

In the book, Bruce takes a humorous, and at times self-deprecating, look back on his forty-year career and offers behind-the-scenes insight into commercial and film production. Bruce’s story provides a unique look into an often overlooked and seldom discussed part of the film industry.

Many of the questions in this podcast are answered in his book so if you like what you hear, you'll love what you read! Seriously, this book is full of great stories, gold nuggets, behind the scenes content and the reality of what it's like working on sets of some of the biggest productions in Hollywood.
