Zach Kornfeld ‘12 on Making it in Digital Production

Zach Kornfeld ’12 studied video production at Emerson, and now? He tries EVERYTHING. A member of the beloved YouTube channel turned multi-media franchise, The Try Guys, Zach uses his Emerson degree every day — but he’s not doing it alone, and in fact, recommends strongly against doing just that when the power of collaboration is immeasurable. And what’s more? It makes you and your work better. In this episode of Making it Big in 30 Minutes, Georgette and Zach discuss the fine art of failing fast, getting out of your own way, and advice-slash-reminder to detach your creative output from your self-worth. Spoiler alert: you are so much more than views and Zach would know! Recorded on July, 25, 2022.
