Speaker 2: of the conversations that shake the room.
0:20
Speaker 3: Baby.
0:21
Speaker 2: Now we are about to hop back into part two
0:24
Speaker 2: of a conversation that I'm sure is going to continue
0:27
Speaker 2: to shake the room because I'm talking with entrepreneur social media.
0:31
Speaker 4: I will call him.
0:31
Speaker 2: Social media guru, but it depends on you know what
0:34
Speaker 2: side of ratchet Twitter, Instagram, you on whether you follow
0:37
Speaker 2: his thoughts and opinions or not. But also comedian actor
0:42
Speaker 2: father Little Duval. Let's get into part two of the
0:44
Speaker 2: conversation where he talks all about the businessman that not
0:47
Speaker 2: only is he newly becoming, but has already been.
0:50
Speaker 3: Child.
0:50
Speaker 4: Let's get into it.
0:51
Speaker 2: I don't want to give too much in the movie
0:52
Speaker 2: away and I know you like, look, it is what
0:55
Speaker 2: it is. People hear they're getting killed. It's funny, it's whatever.
0:58
Speaker 2: But when people people walk away from this film what
1:01
Speaker 2: do you want them to say about Duvall as the filmmaker?
1:05
Speaker 4: Like, what's the one thing you want people to say?
1:07
Speaker 5: I want them to say, Man, what are you putting
1:08
Speaker 5: out another one? That's what I want to say. You
1:11
Speaker 5: need to do another one? That's what I want to say.
1:13
Speaker 5: If I can get him to say that, shit, I
1:16
Speaker 5: want that's what I want them to say. What are
1:17
Speaker 5: you doing another one?
1:20
Speaker 1: Yeah?
1:20
Speaker 4: Now go ahead?
1:22
Speaker 1: No lord, I think that's that's also a thing. Right.
1:24
Speaker 6: Our movie is a runtime of like sixty seven sixty
1:27
Speaker 6: eight minutes, and we didn't hear to the.
1:29
Speaker 1: Normal eighty four or eighty five minutes. Could we have?
1:32
Speaker 6: Yes, But we put out what we thought was the
1:34
Speaker 6: best movie, and that's the runtime, and that's it. And
1:38
Speaker 6: so we're getting an AMC release as well. We've been
1:41
Speaker 6: fortunate enough to get that. But because we don't adhere
1:43
Speaker 6: to an industry run time, that puts us in a
1:48
Speaker 6: box that we don't quite frankly want to be in.
1:51
Speaker 1: Right.
1:51
Speaker 6: We want to be able to make the best movie
1:53
Speaker 6: and show it the folks and hopefully, like you said,
1:55
Speaker 6: they leave going.
1:56
Speaker 1: When is the next one? What is the next one?
1:59
Speaker 4: What box you mean you said to push you in
2:01
Speaker 4: a box about it right now?
2:02
Speaker 6: Run times from movies have to be eighty four minutes
2:04
Speaker 6: and okay, which people don't even have that attention span anymore.
2:07
Speaker 1: I mean that's just true. They're just scrolling and scrolling
2:09
Speaker 1: and scrolling.
2:10
Speaker 6: So when we wrote the script, we stopped when we
2:13
Speaker 6: thought it was at its end. We didn't keep adding
2:16
Speaker 6: and trying to adhere to again the history of Oh,
2:19
Speaker 6: we need to be at least ninety minutes. We need
2:21
Speaker 6: to be at least eight minutes. No, the movie's good
2:25
Speaker 6: right here on paper. Now let's go shoot it. And
2:26
Speaker 6: then we shot it, and then we edited to make
2:29
Speaker 6: the best movie that we could.
2:32
Speaker 4: What do you tell people?
2:33
Speaker 2: And this question for both of y'all, what do y'all
2:35
Speaker 2: tell young people or not even young, but people that
2:38
Speaker 2: are coming up and trying to figure out how to
2:39
Speaker 2: do this independent game? But they're like, yo, I don't
2:41
Speaker 2: have the money to do it, are y'all? Where's the
2:43
Speaker 2: money coming from from this? Did y'all crowdfund?
2:45
Speaker 3: Like?
2:46
Speaker 2: How does that work for people? Let me tell you all,
2:48
Speaker 2: the production on the movie looks really really good. Okay,
2:50
Speaker 2: it's a little coin.
2:51
Speaker 5: About pocket and plus I own the own we shot
2:54
Speaker 5: at it. That's saying a lot of money. You know
2:56
Speaker 5: what I'm saying. Location.
2:58
Speaker 3: I shot it all at Camp thought Ball, So I mean.
3:02
Speaker 1: The gear, we on the equipment.
3:04
Speaker 6: I mean, it just becomes a thing of like we
3:06
Speaker 6: were sitting around waiting for somebody to give us when
3:09
Speaker 6: you really think about it, right, the studios, we're what
3:13
Speaker 6: the studios need because we provide the content. But most
3:16
Speaker 6: of us on the filmmaking side and producing side, we're
3:19
Speaker 6: so busy waiting for somebody to say yes, you know,
3:22
Speaker 6: to give us money. And in this case, we decided
3:24
Speaker 6: to finance it ourselves because we have all the resources,
3:27
Speaker 6: we have the talent, We paid the crew, and it's
3:29
Speaker 6: not in my opinion, we paid everyone fairly, but they're
3:32
Speaker 6: all tied to back end too, so that it's not
3:34
Speaker 6: a case of we if we win, they win as well.
3:38
Speaker 6: And so we just we put it up ourselves and
3:40
Speaker 6: we did it. Same with the marketing, saying we really
3:43
Speaker 6: control the whole ecosystem and what we can't control, right
3:46
Speaker 6: is like AMC theaters, we got Wednesday Thursday Friday versus
3:50
Speaker 6: Thursday Friday Saturday based on our runtime. Okay, well that's
3:53
Speaker 6: what we get We'll take it. Let let's go try
3:55
Speaker 6: to sell those out too. But that's also what I think,
3:58
Speaker 6: like you brought up today, I think going the HBCUs
4:00
Speaker 6: when we hang up, I'm going to add that to
4:02
Speaker 6: I think it's important we should go and screen this
4:05
Speaker 6: as many places that want up.
4:06
Speaker 1: We want to be with who.
4:07
Speaker 2: Wants us If y'all trying to find a host to
4:10
Speaker 2: take y'all you know too, and through these little HBCUs
4:13
Speaker 2: because everything, let me know, because that's for sure, I'm here.
4:20
Speaker 5: That's a part of the ecosystem too. It's like everybody
4:23
Speaker 5: part of it. It's it's everybody has have a reason
4:27
Speaker 5: to make it win.
4:28
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.
4:29
Speaker 5: They all invested in everybody, get get somebody. That's my
4:32
Speaker 5: whole thing with all us is as a as an
4:35
Speaker 5: ecosystem is Blacks in general. Instead of complain about what
4:38
Speaker 5: another people didn't give us, we could do it all ourselves.
4:42
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, that we all win.
4:44
Speaker 6: But I love that idea when you come to host them,
4:47
Speaker 6: because you know there's always gonna be a Q and A afterwards,
4:49
Speaker 6: and you'd be amazing to have come and do that.
4:51
Speaker 2: We know, I mean that means y'all got to guarantee
4:53
Speaker 2: we go to Delaware State University, which is my yeah.
4:56
Speaker 1: We'll go, We'll go beautile thing about homework, I can take.
5:01
Speaker 2: You out of Delaware and so y'all can see because
5:02
Speaker 2: he would be like, don't nobody go to Delaware for
5:04
Speaker 2: nothing but.
5:05
Speaker 3: Falling at Delaware before I perform the Delaware State.
5:08
Speaker 2: Well, you're a comedian, so it's different. You understand Dell
5:10
Speaker 2: State as a market. People people that don't do comedy
5:13
Speaker 2: or music don't understand Delaware State as a market.
5:16
Speaker 4: But everybody come through our school.
5:17
Speaker 3: I do.
5:17
Speaker 5: I understand it because I did all the HBCUs for
5:21
Speaker 5: from two thousand and five to twenty twenty.
5:24
Speaker 3: Damn there, That's all I did for the most part.
5:26
Speaker 5: So and it helped me in the long run because
5:28
Speaker 5: because some people grow with you and they become they
5:31
Speaker 5: become grown folks, and then they come to your comedy shows.
5:34
Speaker 5: So you have a fan for life just from colleges.
5:37
Speaker 5: So in the same that's kind of the same way.
5:39
Speaker 5: I want to do this move and like do the
5:40
Speaker 5: same thing. I tackle him in college. Shit, I have
5:44
Speaker 5: I have a viewer for life. With all my moving
5:47
Speaker 5: next thing, you know, like Tyler Perry.
5:48
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, All I'm counting your pockets
5:52
Speaker 2: for a second, because baby girl just went to college
5:55
Speaker 2: and I know you big on ownership, so I know
5:57
Speaker 2: shan't in them that can't do va paid off. I
6:01
Speaker 2: know you talk about the cars that you paid off
6:02
Speaker 2: early in the game because you don't want to have
6:03
Speaker 2: to depend on people. I remember you talked about that
6:05
Speaker 2: when you got your accident the movie you sew Financing
6:08
Speaker 2: with Eric, Right, yeah, I mean, I'm only your pockets
6:12
Speaker 2: right now because as as a motivator for creatives, like
6:15
Speaker 2: you're generating a lot of income to be able to.
6:18
Speaker 4: Hey hey hey, no I'm not It's coming from somewhere.
6:21
Speaker 4: I want to know the game.
6:23
Speaker 2: I want to know what how are you monetizing the
6:25
Speaker 2: way that you're that you're doing, Like what did you
6:27
Speaker 2: learn and when that click?
6:29
Speaker 4: Because it's working for.
6:30
Speaker 5: You rich broke mentality. You know what I'm saying, That's
6:33
Speaker 5: what I do. I live by that. I've been I've
6:36
Speaker 5: been in the game for twenty seven years. I don't
6:39
Speaker 5: I spent on what I what I what I need now,
6:41
Speaker 5: what I want? You know what I'm saying so, and
6:44
Speaker 5: I just don't get no.
6:45
Speaker 3: I don't.
6:46
Speaker 5: I don't shit, I really don't. I don't don't get
6:52
Speaker 5: no loans. That's the most important thing. I think I
6:55
Speaker 5: told you that before the Black Effect thing, I don't
6:58
Speaker 5: get loans.
6:59
Speaker 3: Yeah.
6:59
Speaker 2: I think I was talking to you about trying to
7:01
Speaker 2: build out the video portion of the podcast, and you
7:04
Speaker 2: was like because you were talking about like partners and stuff,
7:06
Speaker 2: and I was like, I kind of just want to
7:08
Speaker 2: do it on my own, Like I want to figure
7:09
Speaker 2: it out on my own. You are you showing us
7:14
Speaker 2: the land or what's happening right now.
7:15
Speaker 1: For I don't know.
7:17
Speaker 2: The pool was great, Yeah, well could so Eric let
7:21
Speaker 2: me know about the dates that this is in theaters
7:24
Speaker 2: with theaters first, how many of you guys in the
7:26
Speaker 2: open will it expand and listen?
7:29
Speaker 1: This is where we need people support, right.
7:31
Speaker 6: So we have a six city interactive tour that starts
7:34
Speaker 6: starts off September tenth in Jacksonville and every Thursday from there.
7:39
Speaker 6: The next Thursday, the seventeenth, we're in Tampa for one
7:42
Speaker 6: night only. Thursday there we're in Birmingham, Alabama. Then we're
7:46
Speaker 6: going to take a break and AMC is bringing it
7:48
Speaker 6: out to fourteen markets, forty theaters, and based on that success,
7:53
Speaker 6: it could expand more. Right, if we could prove our
7:55
Speaker 6: point that people will still come and you know for
7:58
Speaker 6: meat like an event because of the runtime versus a
8:02
Speaker 6: normal movie. To me, that would be you know, a
8:05
Speaker 6: normal movie that's shorter, you can run it more times,
8:07
Speaker 6: you would think Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, giving people more
8:10
Speaker 6: opportunity to go see it. So our goal is well
8:13
Speaker 6: sell out those AMC's and get people to buy those tickets,
8:16
Speaker 6: and so amccs.
8:17
Speaker 1: That we have.
8:20
Speaker 6: A real audience that will follow us with this, and
8:22
Speaker 6: then we're gonna come back out and do more.
8:24
Speaker 1: Three more shows.
8:25
Speaker 6: We'll do Nashville, we're gonna do Detroit, and we end
8:28
Speaker 6: in Atlanta on October twenty ninth.
8:31
Speaker 2: How did y'all pick the markets? Was it based off
8:33
Speaker 2: of like what markets do all does best in?
8:34
Speaker 4: Show wise?
8:35
Speaker 1: For sure?
8:35
Speaker 3: For sure?
8:36
Speaker 6: Like this is based on where you know, these were
8:39
Speaker 6: his markets. So he picked and and said, hey let's
8:41
Speaker 6: go here and we and independent cinemas. Right, we had
8:43
Speaker 6: to find markets with cinemas that would have us and
8:46
Speaker 6: allow us to do like we're gonna have a DJ there, right,
8:49
Speaker 6: warming up. It's gonna be a night to be fun
8:51
Speaker 6: and not just walk in, buy some popcorn.
8:54
Speaker 1: Drink and then leave.
8:55
Speaker 6: Like on the experience screens, it will be a DJ
8:57
Speaker 6: in the house playing like Thriller and playing some songs.
9:00
Speaker 6: There'll be a Q and A afterwards. It's a real opportunity
9:03
Speaker 6: come and experience do vall the movie and the cast.
9:06
Speaker 6: Everywhere we go there will be some cast members. So
9:08
Speaker 6: that's really the point is just to try to take
9:11
Speaker 6: it to as many people personally as we can.
9:14
Speaker 4: All right, I got you more questions and then I'll
9:16
Speaker 4: get out your hair. I know.
9:19
Speaker 1: How your face. That stock doing that we talked about
9:21
Speaker 1: the other day.
9:22
Speaker 5: I gotta go check it. I ain't looked at it.
9:24
Speaker 5: It went up or something when something made the news.
9:27
Speaker 4: Not do I got more money what it went up.
9:31
Speaker 1: We bought it at one eleven to share.
9:33
Speaker 5: I bought it as soon as it came out. Like
9:36
Speaker 5: that's another thing I do too, Like I don't. I
9:38
Speaker 5: just try stuff too, like like in the stock I tried.
9:41
Speaker 5: It's like gambling, like I don't. I just I don't
9:43
Speaker 5: bite off more than I can chew. So that's one
9:46
Speaker 5: of my little financial things. But I don't like who.
9:48
Speaker 1: Put you on.
9:49
Speaker 4: Who puts you like?
9:50
Speaker 2: Who is the person that will pick up the phone
9:51
Speaker 2: and call and be like, yo, take a look at this?
9:53
Speaker 1: Is it?
9:53
Speaker 2: Business people that you're in conversation with serious cauld You'll
9:57
Speaker 2: be online all the time. You'll be seeing stuff too.
10:00
Speaker 5: I had nobody give me advice, Like I might talk
10:02
Speaker 5: to Eric that we might He might say, hey, man,
10:05
Speaker 5: you saw this, and I might say you saw that,
10:07
Speaker 5: and then we say I'm finna try it, little ship
10:09
Speaker 5: like that, Like I'm not smart. I'm gonna tell you
10:11
Speaker 5: that right now. I just be trying ship. You know
10:13
Speaker 5: what I'm saying. I just don't bite off more than
10:15
Speaker 5: I could choose. Like I know, people, I know, we
10:18
Speaker 5: got all these these investment girl rules, But to me,
10:22
Speaker 5: it's just keep it simple. Just don't live a live
10:25
Speaker 5: in your means and don't bite off more you could
10:27
Speaker 5: chew and you'll be good. And if you get loans,
10:30
Speaker 5: that's to me, that's bite biting off more than you
10:32
Speaker 5: could chew, because evidently you can't afford it, because if
10:35
Speaker 5: you could.
10:35
Speaker 3: You wouldn't.
10:36
Speaker 5: You wouldn't get no loan, right, That's how I looked
10:39
Speaker 5: at it. So so That's how I deal with everything
10:42
Speaker 5: in my life.
10:44
Speaker 3: That's why I'm where I'm at now.
10:45
Speaker 4: I guess just just just trying stuff, Just.
10:49
Speaker 5: Just trying stuff and not being stupid, you know, not
10:51
Speaker 5: going broke, that's not spending over my means.
10:55
Speaker 4: What's on your radar? Next of ball? Like, what do
10:57
Speaker 4: you what's you know your interest in? Right now?
11:01

Speaker 2: the Waterfall, you're continuing to do, But like, what's something that,
11:07
Speaker 2: like is you thinking about, like I might want to
11:10
Speaker 2: try this that we haven't seen from you yet.
11:12
Speaker 5: Well, I'm kind of got I'm kind of like I'm

13:22
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.
13:22
Speaker 5: So yeah, And I mean you probably want to support
13:27
Speaker 5: it because supporting it only supports you. You know what
13:29
Speaker 5: I'm saying, Because that's what I think in mind and
13:31
Speaker 5: anything I do, I'm thinking about others more than myself.
13:34

13:38
Speaker 5: if you want to see, I'm gonna be pretty good.

13:45
Speaker 5: all I'm saying. Because it's gonna work for y'all.

Speaker 2: I see you by the pool and posting videos all
14:32
Speaker 2: the time. Talk me through, like, can you show us

14:42
Speaker 6: So we didn't shoot the main house because we're saving
14:44
Speaker 6: that for a Christmas movie. So for Campvall, we shot
14:49
Speaker 6: all the surrounding structures on the property. Wow wow, Yeah
14:53
Speaker 6: he is a great problem.
14:56
Speaker 2: Yeah he's shying to show us right now. But it's
14:58
Speaker 2: breaking up, y'all.
14:59
Speaker 6: Yeah, so that's just like, that's the rich lake. Broke
15:01
Speaker 6: Lake is on the other side. So he's got rich
15:03
Speaker 6: lake and broke Lake. So this is the rich lake.
15:06
Speaker 4: He's showing us some wood.
15:08
Speaker 2: These are the wood yep, now I say that's the
15:12
Speaker 2: river are these are these some of the wooded areas
15:15
Speaker 2: we see in the film, like some of.
15:16
Speaker 1: The scenes absolutely yep.
15:19
Speaker 6: And then where he's taking you around the pool on
15:21
Speaker 6: the backside of the other structures.
15:22
Speaker 5: I have to show y'all on the video. I have
15:25
Speaker 5: to show y'all. I have to send your video.
15:28
Speaker 1: We'll come out and do an old school Cribs episode.
15:31
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, if you could send us some because
15:33
Speaker 2: we talked so much about the correlation between your real
15:36
Speaker 2: life and in the film and you owning the land
15:38
Speaker 2: word shot, I think it would be dope to be
15:39
Speaker 2: able to add that in the show.
15:40
Speaker 4: With well dub I am.
15:43
Speaker 3: You know.
15:43
Speaker 2: I'm really proud of you. I know, talking to you
15:46
Speaker 2: and watching you online inspires me.
15:48
Speaker 1: So it inspires me too long.
15:51
Speaker 4: That's how much money you spent on this movie.
15:53
Speaker 1: We can't give you that though. We can't get.
15:56
Speaker 5: God dang get you and this money thing, we gotta
15:58
Speaker 5: get out. That's what's fucking us up too. We so
16:00
Speaker 5: calling money instead of intention And that's what I always
16:04
Speaker 5: think about it, No, because when.
16:05
Speaker 2: You are trying to do something as big as what
16:07
Speaker 2: you're doing, like as a creator, that's like really trying
16:10
Speaker 2: to figure this out. You always feel like you're waiting
16:12
Speaker 2: to get to a certain something, like a certain brain.
16:14
Speaker 5: If I thought like that, I wouldn't be here though,
16:16
Speaker 5: because I never thought about that.
16:18
Speaker 1: You just gotta stop.
16:19
Speaker 5: I've been the game for twenty seven years and it's
16:21
Speaker 5: always been intentional first and my passion, and then the
16:25
Speaker 5: money came. And as the money came, that's when my
16:27
Speaker 5: creativity where I can do more came. So if you
16:30
Speaker 5: just be intentional what you do, the money had coming
16:33
Speaker 5: that way, you have the resource to do bigger things.
16:35
Speaker 3: Oh I just snapt. God, damn, I just snapped.
16:39
Speaker 2: I just slept with that guy from Obsession that you
16:41
Speaker 2: talked about earlier too, Eric. It was like that with him,
16:43
Speaker 2: Like I know that that was like a smaller like project.
16:47
Speaker 6: Yes, like Obsession was still financed by Studio A company.
16:51
Speaker 6: Oh okay, Yeah, the original million dollar movie was financed
16:55
Speaker 6: by Capstone, So if you look at that, it wasn't
16:58
Speaker 6: people taking money out of checking Tomorrow. Standing again, what
17:01
Speaker 6: I've read it was originally financed by Capstone and then
17:04
Speaker 6: from their group. This movie is really financed by Eric
17:07
Speaker 6: and Duvall.
17:08
Speaker 4: Got you got we can't give you that.
17:11
Speaker 1: Yep, And so we're gonna and then we're gonna try
17:14
Speaker 1: to keep doing it.
17:15
Speaker 3: Well.
17:15
Speaker 2: I appreciate y'all for joining me, and I'm serious. So
17:17
Speaker 2: if y'all want to hit the HBCUs, I'm so down
17:19
Speaker 2: for that.
17:21
Speaker 4: I'm along for the ride.
17:22
Speaker 2: I love being around people that are doing things that
17:24
Speaker 2: I can learn from and grow from. So keep me
17:26
Speaker 2: posted the movie will be out. Oh no, I only
17:31
Speaker 2: put them type of games. That's what I'm saying. You
17:35
Speaker 2: can't put this kill what you can't.
17:37
Speaker 5: Do if you if you got scared just by that, Yeah,
17:41
Speaker 5: it's definitely.
17:42
Speaker 2: Yeah, dude, you're talking about being in a dark theater
17:45
Speaker 2: and the killer just pop out.
17:48
Speaker 1: Think about this one. He owns the rights to the
17:51
Speaker 1: look of the.
17:51
Speaker 2: Killer, which is so fire because we've heard the Wayne's
17:55
Speaker 2: family talk about how you know what happened with scary
17:58
Speaker 2: movie in the beginning, how things will just take care
18:00
Speaker 2: from them. They were able to go on and use
18:01
Speaker 2: that character, use it like issues everything I think.
18:04
Speaker 3: We learned from them.
18:05
Speaker 1: Driving home intentional is one of his big things. Right.
18:08
Speaker 6: He really doesn't, in my opinion, do anything for commerce.
18:11
Speaker 6: And one of those few people on social media that
18:13
Speaker 6: you see what you get. He lives how he lives,
18:16
Speaker 6: and he tells you how he lives. And that's the
18:19
Speaker 6: part of this movie, right, like we we from the
18:22
Speaker 6: very beginning, we set up the business, right, let's own that.
18:25
Speaker 1: Let's do this.
18:26
Speaker 6: We have a remix of living my best life that
18:28
Speaker 6: he has. It's kind of in that vein of a
18:31
Speaker 6: horror venus in the trailer.
18:32
Speaker 1: He owns that.
18:33
Speaker 6: So all of these things are part of his ecosystem.
