I was very fortunate to sit down with a film industry veteran in the truest sense of the word. He's the cinematographer behind some of your favorite films like "White Chicks", "Murder at 1600", and "Monster." He's the writer and director of "Decoding Annie Parker" and "Last Call", and he's got a new book and companion film, "GRQ" (Get Rich Quick). Steven Bernstein joined the show to share his experience, his wisdom, his insight, and more!
