Today’s guest is my guy Michael Martin Jr., and today I deemed his new nickname "The Sports Business Renaissance Man" because he wears many hats in this industry! A few of which being: Warner Bros. Discovery Sports -- Camera Operator & Runner  Warner Bros. Discovery -- Assistant Equipment Inventory Manager Team Hines TBT -- GM & Assistant Coach GTM Family Productions -- Co-Founder Overtime -- Camera Operator Like most of us, Mike's basketball journey started when he picked up a basketball as a kid. But after he realized that playing at the highest level wasn't part of his career path, he started exploring other avenues. In 2017 when he picked up a camera for the first time, everything changed. Today we talked about: the college recruiting process getting injured and "hanging them up" early the transition from athlete to real world his first few jobs (finance & construction management) trying out the agency world & the challenges he faced starting GTM Family Productions & what its all about moving to Atlanta without having a job lined up his roles as a freelancer at Warner Bros. what it's like on set with Shaq, Charles, Ernie & Kenny his GM role for The Gutter Cats (formerly Team Hines) his role as a camera operator at Overtime Elite and much more Appreciate you tuning in.
