Catalyst: A Creative Industries Podcast

Catalyst is a Creative Industries podcast, from Chapman University. Each episode features Chapman students who have completed a Podcasting course through the Center for Creative and Cultural Industries at the university. Students who had no podcasting experience or technical ability in the genre before taking the course were able to contribute all the segments to Catalyst this season with the goal being that they will take this ‘hands-on’ experience and carry it over to the launching of their very own series. Each episode of Season 14 will feature one to two different interviews conducted by CCI students, exploring different aspects of the Creative and Cultural Industries. Sophia Hall begins this week’s episode of Catalyst with her interview of Maia Nantais, an Event Director at The Perfect Event, a premiere event production and planning company operating in Southern California and Arizona. Maia discusses her start as an intern and working her way up to director where she oversees more than 200 events a year
