Congrats to Film Connection mentor Zac Adams of Skydive Films (Nashville, TN) and students/grads: Jamie Reed, Corey Pitts, Jon Sartain, Reid Harris, Brandon Russell and to all of the students who helped make Iron Will a reality! The documentary film that focuses on veterans’ battles with PTSD just won a Voice Award, beating out 3 other documentaries currently airing on HBO!    Music business student Ernesto Trujillo (Denver, CO) is learning just how vital a role the music publicist plays in an artist’s success. He says, “I learned this week about the Publicity Department and everything a publicist is capable of doing in order to make their artist stand out…They’re in charge of securing media coverage for the artists on the label…creat[ing] an attractive biography for press outlets, social media platforms and website. A publicist makes sure that the artist’s image is represented properly [and to] raise awareness of artists via the press, which then aligned with a strong marketing & promo campaign, can help sell units. I am using these strategies when investing into my music and learning about this will only help me improve the way I distribute my music.”
