Later, Joe founded Tilted Creative, an advertising agency dedicated to crafting promotional partnerships between major brands (Sony, Mercedes, Heineken, etc.) and TV series (SONS OF ANARCHY, JUSTIFIED, AMERICAN HORROR STORY). He is the founder and creative director of Great Big Stuff, a boutique design agency dedicated to creating key art for early-stage productions. Joe is also the former horoscope writer for the Psychic Hotline. Seriously.
His current and upcoming projects include the biopics DRILLMAN and BURNING HOUSE, and an adaptation of THE LAST TIME I DIED.
His feedback and encouragement is extremely helpful. He has a kind and patient demeanor. This was my first time pitching with an exec I had never met before (on my own, not in an online class setting). I felt like he was on my side from the beginning and wanted me to do well on this pitch. I'm implementing his suggestions into the pitch now.
