An Artistry Foundation podcast.
An Artistry Foundation podcast launched in the spring of 2020 with a simple premise: artists deserve a clear view of how this business actually works.
Hosted by Laura Linda Bradley, each episode is an honest conversation with casting directors, writers, directors, producers, showrunners and creatives working to shape the industry we love. Built to feel less like an interview and more like a master class.
After 7 seasons and more than 200 episodes, the show has become a lasting resource for artists globally, where guests speak openly about the creative choices and business decisions behind the work.
That community is what built Artistry Foundation. What began as a podcast grew into a 501(c)(3) creative community supporting artists through every chapter of their career, and What’s My Frame? remains its founding voice.

On the morning of April 16th 2007 the Virginia Tech campus was forever changed. Thirty-two students and faculty were killed, seventeen were injured, and countless lives were forever changed by a single gunman. This is our story.
Named for Nikki Giovanni’s convocation poem, the film carries her blessing, given before her death in December 2024, and is made with consultants from the former White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention.
Laura Linda Bradley is a screenwriter working across drama and comedy. A Virginia native, she writes with a distinct sense of place and an ear for the way people talk.
She has sold projects to Amazon MGM Studios, written and produced original new media, and built a slate of features and pilots that includes Millennial Complex and Single Together, a mother-daughter comedy with equal parts humor and heart, alongside Wagon Trail Road, a period romance about young sweethearts set against the Blue Ridge Mountains.
She writes drama with the attention to detail of a reporter, building stories around research, first-hand access, and a refusal to soften what happened. Her dramatic writing is known for its emotional accuracy and the depth of reporting behind it. Her comedy is warm and character-first, written about family both born and chosen, and the people who carry us through every chapter.
A performer long before she was a writer, Laura builds rich dialogue actors and audiences love.

SAG-AFTRA board service, committees and moderating.
Union service is a cause dear to my heart, and a small way of honoring my grandfather, who organized the union at his DuPont plant in Virginia. Over more than ten years I’ve served on the SAG-AFTRA board and on national and local committees, and I’ve had the honor of moderating for the SAG-AFTRA Foundation. The work I’m proudest of is building educational programming alongside SAG-AFTRA’s staff, helping members meet an industry that’s changing fast. The technology changes. The business changes. What holds is the power of community.

“My job in the room is to hold space for the guest. I come to every conversation as an audience member first. The education follows from that.”
