Picture Lock PR After Show: Ron Newcomb & Mid-Atlantic Studios
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. 96- Halloween, Middleburg Film Fest, Nick Gross, & Washington West Film Fest
What’s good folks!? I’ve got a packed show for you guys this week. The Middleburg Film Festival is going on this weekend and I talked w/ the founder and executive director, Sheila Johnson and Susan Koch, about what you can expect to see at one of my favorite fests! I talk with DMV actor Nick Gross about his career and how going after what he wants has helped him. I’ll post the after show segment I had with Nick in which he gave some great tips on how he addresses PR & Marketing with his career on Monday. Finally, I talk with the director of programming for the Washington West Film Festival, Ariel Lee. Ariel gave me the goods on what you can expect to see at the festival taking place in Reston next week. But first, friend of the show and Epic Film Guy, Bryan Loy, stops by to give his thoughts on Halloween, which hits theaters this weekend.

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.
