Today we’d like to introduce you to Josh Mitchell
Hi Josh, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
My filmmaking journey began many moons ago when I directed Roid Rage, a zombie action film born in Boston. Determined to make my mark, I ventured to the Sundance Film Festival to promote it, immersing myself in the art of navigating the festival circuit and connecting with some of the most influential players in Hollywood.
This invaluable experience inspired me to launch a publicity company, where I’ve had the privilege of representing a diverse array of talented filmmakers from around the globe. My niche lies in securing impactful interview opportunities, pitching compelling projects to producers, and fostering connections between creative minds to spark meaningful collaboration and synergy.
Currently, I’ve taken my storytelling talents to the world of music, where I write Broadway musicals and craft viral hit songs, blending my passion for narrative and creativity into every lyric and melody.

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
It has been a challenging yet rewarding excursion on my road to success. I haven’t really been able to take my foot off the gas pedal since my arrival. There’s just too much competition, and it takes a major effort to get ahead in this industry. The pandemic, strikes, and now the fires have been challenging for everyone, but you have to be a flexible individual and pivot your goals and focus to continue flourishing. I have learned to wear many hats and remain as optimistic and open as possible when it comes to career moves as you never know where lightning could strike.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
I am a Hollywood publicist and film specialist dedicated to elevating exposure, visibility, and connections. My extensive distribution list features the best and brightest in the entertainment industry, including producers, directors, publishers, bloggers, studios, filmmakers, and agents.
I have the ability to pitch people and projects directly to Academy Award-winning producers and owners of $100 million film funds. By crafting insightful and captivating one-sheet press releases, I ensure content is marketed directly to the biggest power platers in the business.
In addition, I provide access to high-end networking events, exclusive screenings, and red carpets in both Los Angeles and New York City. I also facilitate email introductions to elite connections and potential job opportunities, helping you build relationships that can take your career to the next level.”
Is there something surprising that you feel even people who know you might not know about?
Something surprising that most people who know me or my work might not realize is that, while I might come across as a gruff Boston sports guy, I also have a deep passion for storytelling through music. I channel that energy into writing heartfelt and inspiring songs, including my latest follow-up to “Wicked,” titled “Baum.” It’s a project that reflects my ability to blend raw emotion with intricate storytelling, showcasing a completely different side of me.
