Director Sharon Lewis paints a dystopian Caribbean future in her film Brown Girl Begins.

Picture Lock PR After Show: Director Talya Tibbon

Talya Tibbon is an award-winning director, producer, and writer. She’s worked in four continents documenting wide-ranging subjects such as street gangs, mass shooters and those who survive their crimes, and human trafficking. She’s currently in the early production stages of a film about her father and his work identifying soldiers lost in battle. Her most recent film, “Amanpour — On Sex and Love in Berlin,” aired as part of CNN Originals in early 2018.

It was great to have her on last week’s episode of Picture Lock, and it was awesome to have her stick around for the after show. The after show is where I ask my guests two questions that cuts straight to great takeaways for how to improve the PR and marketing for your production and they throw one at me.

Talya definitely had great insights for her documentary that deals with a niche topic that has to fight against apathy in a big way. So let’s get into the interview w/ Talya, right after this reminder that you can take one of the best online courses out for indie filmmakers in regards to PR and Marketing.

Picture Lock After Show: Julia Camara

It’s finally here! The Picture Lock After Show! In this segment of the show I talk with the guest I had on in more depth about the PR and Marketing for their production. I’m kicking this off with Julia Camara, writer/director/producer of “In Transit”. Julia was very vulnerable with where she is currently with PR & Marketing and the things she would do differently in the future. This is definitely worth the listen as you think about your production.
