It's like you get home and you don't have this buildup anxiety because you've fully let off all your creative juices. And I work with my wife. So it's not like a normal relationship where you go home and you say, oh, what'd you do today? If my wife had dad asked me what I did today, I'd be like, you knew what I did. I was with you all day. We spoke all day. But I love that.

We're very agile and we can go into what we want and I didn't want any other businesses' reputation to affect the culture of what we do. Nike bought us, for instance, as a creative agency. Adidas will never shoot with us again. Adidas shoots with us. None of these other shoe brands will shoot with us. Represent probably won't shoot with us.

And Represent is a huge emerging company that is killing the fitness space with their live activations and their content. They're great. Nothing bad to say about them. but they'll never shoot with me if Nike bought us. So we really have to be open to everybody. And I love being that person for this community. I'm such a fan of the arts.

So when you're creating these high-end assets as opposed to just user-generated assets or just something simple, you got to keep every single detail in mind. One, it has to be formatted to every single aspect that you're going to be able to market it. You know what I mean? Whether it's phone, digital, whatever way.

Then you got 60 people on set. You have to feed all these people. You have to handle that. Then you have to create this environment that everybody feels super creative.
