Check out this interesting blog post from the ScriptJournal Blog on Oscar-winning producer Ed Saxon. After working in the executive search industry for many years, Patty Fantasia transitioned into her life-long goal and began pursuing a new career path in film and entertainment. Patty is currently co-producing an indie short, titled "Accused," which is now in final editing, as well as implementing the promotional campaign and film festival submission strategy for it. In the summer of 2009, Patty launched her film blog, "Filmmakers Notebook," and it became syndicated on Openfilm.com in January 2010. Recently, Patty also became the Marketing Director for NOMOSA, an e-commerce and social networking platform for independent artists. Finally, Patty will be handling promotion for a new short that is scheduled to shoot in August. All of these activities dovetail perfectly with her primary interests, which are producing, marketing and distribution.
