What People Are Saying:
"DOING A LITTLE SHOW BIZ THERAPY WITH BARRY IS A BEAUTIFUL RITE OF PASSAGE - LIKE A PROFESSIONAL BAR MITZVAH WITHOUT ALL OF THOSE ANNOYING CHECKS. "
DAVID WILD (WRITER/EDITOR - ROLLING STONE)
“I didn’t really understand what I was signing up for when I signed up for consulting from Barry.
I didn’t know if it would be like other consulting that I had. Lots of worksheets and modules as you tried to figure out how your project fit into the assigned homework. This was NOTHING like that. Barry helped me realize goals I didn’t even know I had. Constantly challenging me to push my boundaries and comfort zone to make my project the best it possibly could be. But he isn’t just an excellent show doctor, his career advice was invaluable. I wish I had met Barry in my 20’s when I was starting. I am sure my career would be in an entirely different place. We set a goal to create a pilot of my show (in the middle of a pandemic). We had a very specific festival we wanted to submit it to. With those goals set Barry guided me through every step. From casting to wardrobe and set design. He gave notes as the editing process went along and was even on the phone with me minutes before the submission deadline. Making sure I was happy and felt good about it right up until the end. He gave me the tools to not only realize my goal but set a plan for the next steps. Because of his guidance I now have several pitch meetings for my pilot. Even if nothing ever comes of this project the tools he has armed me with will travel on to each project moving forward. He was well worth it and beyond. I can’t recommend him enough.”
