Show Notes

Rich Middlemas won an Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature for producing the high school football story UNDEFEATED.

Rich began his career in Hollywood working in the office of the President at MGM Studios working on films such as Legally Blonde, Agent Cody Banks, Barbershop and James Bond film, Die Another Day.

Rich Middlemas graduated from University of Tennessee’s College of Communication and Information with a BS in broadcasting.

In this episode, Rich shares his Oscar experience as we follow the journey from making a little football documentary to getting into SXSW’s film festival, to his bromance with Bratt Pitt at the Oscar nominations luncheon, to going on stage to accept the little gold statute.

We are happy to report Rich’s Oscar is no longer in a paper bag in his cupboard, but you’ll have to ask to find out what place of prominence it now lives.
