Episode Notes

Today’s guest is Elliott Walker. I remember coming across his content on TikTok and being excited to binge the rest of his videos. What caught my attention was his episodic strategy — each video is part of a larger body of work. It’s rare to see someone post on TikTok in that way. Elliott is a multi-talented artist who is an incredible storyteller, director and musician. I’m excited to see how he impacts film and TV in the next 15 years. 

Before we get to the episode, here are three things about Elliott you should know:

  1. He writes, edits, directs and casts his videos all on his own
  2. Each video will take over 50hrs to finish — he pours everything he has into these videos
  3. He nearly went on tour with Miley Cyrus when he was 4 years old after he went viral for rapping songs over his dad’s beats on MySpace
