This week I’m talking to producer Isen Robbins. Isen co-founded Intrinsic Value Films with Aimee Schoof and has produced over 40 films, premiering 10 of those at the Sundance Film Festival. He has worked in international sales attending all major markets, and regularly lectures on film finance and production.
I talked to Isen about how he got started in the industry, working on productions that have been accepted into Sundance and his tips for working in the industry. Enjoy!
