Talya Tibbon is an award winning documentary director and producer working in the US and in Europe. Over the years, her work has taken her to 4 continents: from Boko Haram territory in Nigeria to the slums of Karachi, from gang-controlled neighborhoods in Honduras to Siberia and to the corridors of the White House. She's documented war refugees, trafficked women, Guantanamo detainees, Wall Street traders, drug economies, mass shooting survivors and even daredevil ice swimmers. Last year Talya was nominated for two IDA (international documentary association) awards: for "Sky and Ground" (PBS/ Amazon) for best documentary and for the docuseries "Amanpour: Sex and Love Around the World" which is running on Netflix. She is currently working on her next documentary feature film about the legacy of WWII in the Baltics and a scripted drama series about the refugee crisis.

Talya Tibbon is an award-winning director, producer, and writer. She’s worked in four continents documenting wide-ranging subjects such as street gangs, mass shooters and those who survive their crimes, and human trafficking. She’s currently in the early production stages of a film about her father and his work identifying soldiers lost in battle. Her most recent film, “Amanpour — On Sex and Love in Berlin,” will aired as part of CNN Originals in early 2018. It was great to have her on last week’s episode of Picture Lock, and it was awesome to have her stick around for the after show. The after show is where I ask my guests two questions that cuts straight to great takeaways for how to improve the PR and marketing for your production and they throw one at me. Talya definitely had great insights for her documentary that deals with a niche topic that has to fight against apathy in a big way. So let’s get into the interview w/ Talya, right after this reminder that you can take one of the best online courses out for indie filmmakers in regards to PR and Marketing.

Talya Tibbon is an award-winning documentary film and television director, producer and writer whose projects have focused on contemporary social and political issues. Talya has documented street gangs, drug dealers and users, former Guantanamo detainees setting out on a new path and now, perhaps the greatest humanitarian crisis of our time - the plight of refugees leaving war-ravaged Syria to seek asylum in other countries. Her riveting documentary "SKY AND GROUND" chronicles the journey of one such family as they make their way from Aleppo, Syria, to a refugee camp on the border of Greece and Macedonia, to their eventual goal - Berlin. You can't afford to miss this honest, compelling conversation with one helluva creative, committed woman.
