Publicist Josh Mitchell, dir: "Helen Keller Had a Pit Bull"

Josh Mitchell directed "Helen Keller Had a Pit Bull," based on a true story about a Boston publicist who moves to LA and deals with a libelous competitor while dealing with his girlfriends' terminal breast cancer. He acted in the main role.

But he is also a publicist at his company Wickid Pissa Publicity, a full-service public relations, marketing, branding and events firm. With a vast Rolodex packed with the top movers and shakers in Hollywood -- not to mention national and local press, agents, producers, artists, editors, publishers, CEOs, actors, filmmakers, and bloggers, he ensures his clients get noticed. He works with filmmakers, writers and other creative types, as well as products like Everlast Energy Bars, Rich's Sweet Heat, Bonebreakerz Clothing, Boldfacers, The SlouchBack, Sovereign Bank, Pepsi One and Filter Magazine.

He will be talking about some of the films he has been involved in, both as a director and actor, and also his work in publicity.
