Picture Lock Radio: Ep. 112- Ron Newcomb & Alex Ferrari
Happy Friday folks! You could call today an indie film grinding episode as I talk with two men in the business who really work hard at it. I talk with filmmaker and founder of the VIP Film & TV Summit, Ron Newcomb. The annual event is hitting Dulles, Virginia April 5-7 and he’ll talk about what you can expect to get out of it. I also talk with filmmaker, founder of Indie Film Hustle, and now author, Alex Ferrari, about his new book “Shooting For the Mob”. Alex talks about what inspired him to write this cautionary tale in filmmaking. Plus I have your answers from last week’s question of the week.

Picture Lock PR After Show: Alex Ferrari of Indie Film Hustle
Hope you’re having a terrific Tuesday! I’m definitely dropping some information filled After Shows for your Thanksgiving travels. I’m really excited to bring you this conversation with Indie Film Hustle’s Alex Ferrari because Alex and I share the same passion for cinema and helping filmmakers grow in their journey. We talk about how to not just make asks of your tribe and community, but give value first. Alex also asks me about giving filmmakers the reason they didn’t get into my film festival. Finally, we chat for a little while about the importance of enjoying the journey. Sit back, relax, and enjoy this episode! Thanks for listening.
Well, you should be off after today, so Wednesday isn’t looking like a hump day! Happy holidays! I’ve got the After Show conversation with Ron Newcomb. He talks about the importance of being transparent with your audience, and oversimplifying while over-communicating in an effort to create clear expectations. Ron also asks me the best way to navigate the film festival world to get the best bang for your buck…aka how to ensure you’re submitting to the right fests. Sit back, relax, and enjoy this episode! Thanks for listening.
The after show is where I ask my guests two questions that cut straight to great takeaways for how to improve the PR and marketing for your production and they throw one at me. Definitely worth the time to listen #indiefilmmakers!

Picture Lock Radio: Ep. 100- Widows, Alex Ferrari, Roxy Shih & Celebrating 100!
Happy Friday folks! I’ve got a super special 100th episode for you guys! I have founder of Indie Film Hustle and Indie Film Hustle TV, Alex Ferrari on the show. We talk about how his love for film burgeoned into an empire along with the launch of his new streaming platform geared to help indie filmmakers. I also talk with Roxy Shih, director of Pain Killers. Roxy is a rock star. We recorded this interview a while back but since then I’ve followed her on Instagram and she dances, plays the violin, directs a film festival, directs movies, and so much more. You’ll definitely want to check out the after show that I had with both my guests next week to keep your Thanksgiving travels fun!
Since this episode will be the one to air prior to Thanksgiving, Happy Thanksgiving! In honor of this monumental episode and the holiday, I have some call-ins sprinkled throughout the show in which folks will list their top 3 Thanksgiving films. But first, Steve McQueen’s Widows hits theaters this weekend and ya’ll...I guarantee your money won’t be wasted if you go!
