Legally Blind Filmmaker James Rath on Accessibility, Self-Acceptance and Overcoming Adversity
On this episode of the Colin and Samir Podcast we interview legally blind filmmaker James Rath. James is an incredibly inspiring creator - he makes awesome content for his YouTube Channel, he directs commercials for big brands and he consults on accessibility features for tech and gaming companies.
We first met James through a cold email he sent us, we ended up getting coffee and making a video together.
Here is that video: https://youtu.be/71Dl3eKi78E
