Chapter 86 – Learning from Justin Simien
by Leesa Dean
So while I’m still caught up writing, I’m also starting to focus a bit on promo, or, at least, getting a promo blueprint under way.
A great way to start, for me, was watching a talk with Dear White People director Justin Simien that was sponsored by Creative Live.
Justin started out as a publicist and worked for 8 years doing that at Paramount Pictures as well as a few other places in Hollywood. He actually specialized in online promo and social media campaigns.
