Commercial Filmmaking Insights from Advertising Veteran Anthony Vagnoni.

Advertising industry veteran Anthony Vagnoni and I had an insightful discussion on the evolving landscape of commercial filmmaking and marketing. With decades of experience spanning roles in publishing, PR, and production, Vagnoni provides a unique perspective on the challenges and opportunities facing up-and-coming directors. From the importance of self-promotion to the shifting dynamics between agencies, brands, and vendors, this conversation offers valuable guidance for filmmakers navigating the complexities of the modern advertising world.
