I have also done broadcast work as a film expert, talking about the film industry and current events surrounding it, as well as hosting film-related conference events.

I was on FOX Connecticut, talking about the Sony hacking scandal, and subsequent postponing of the release of the Seth Rogen/James Franco film THE INTERVIEW:

I moderated the “Movers and Shakers” panel at the 2013 Connecticut Film Industry Mixer, with producers Barry Katz (GOOD LUCK CHUCK, EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH), Joe Young (DIAMOND RUFF) and Anthony Ambrosino (ALMOST HUMAN), and author/makeup artist Norman Bryn.
