MELBOURNE, FL—In August 2015 indie author and journalist G.W. Pomichter of Melbourne launched a new web based interview show aimed at sharing up-and-coming independent artists with the public.
The YouTube based show, titled "Hangin With" is formatted as an informal talk show features Pomichter interviewing a variety of authors, artists and filmmakers in a wide range of settings from his living room studio to conventions and conference centers throughout the state.
“For me this was an opportunity to use my experience to help other independent artists to get the word our about the projects they’ve worked so hard to
Pomichter said he started the show when he attended the Independent BookFest in Orlando in August as a way to distinguish himself in a large group of other authors.
“Like everyone, I had a desire to stand out in my market,” he said. “But, after talking with a few authors about their work and the shared difficulties each had getting their message to consumers, I knew we had something more.”
After interviewing authors that weekend, Pomichter said he spoke with his family about ways to create a regular program to help his peers.
Since then, Pomichter has interviewed more than 40 artists including fellow authors and filmmakers as well as costume creators and even a chocolatier, at venues such as the Speculative Fiction South East Conference in Orlando and Necronomicon in Tampa, and he has set his sights on many more.
“The past decade, weather as a product of the economy or technology or any number of factors has really been a new renaissance of creativity and entrepreneurship,” Pomichter said. “But, there is a need to give these creators a voice in a global emerging market. I want to be a part of that. I want to use the skills I’ve been blessed to learn through experience to help create a new age of imagination and innovation.”
Hangin With ™ is regularly produced and episodes can be found at YouTube.com/user/GarrettPomichter and are available in the iTunes store as podcasts.
