Hey, I know I haven't blogged in a while, but that's because #TIFF16 kept me super busy. Here's a quick recap.
I was approached by SHARP Magazine to help fill some content out for their pop-up lounge, The SHARP + S/ Festival Experience. I've always wanted the opportunity to work with them, so of course I said yes!
The venue they chose was stunning and from my perspective, absolutely perfect for sponsors. Design was done by Candace & Alison, the best luxury event planners in the city!
I ended up slotting in media junkets during the day for some of the top films showing during TIFF like BLEEDER, LBJ, Burn Your Maps & Message From The King, hosting stars like Liev Schrieber, Jai Courtney, Fan Bingbing, Christopher Plummer, Lily James and Chadwick Boseman and even doing parties for Woody Harrelson, Charlize Theron and Chole Grace Moretz.
Needless to say, coordinating media junkets, navigating film politics, making sure sponsors are happy and promoting events is pretty draining, especially when you're doing it all by yourself.
Next year...I'm hiring.
