“If it is all about the story, why is there Sharknado?”
About this Event

“If it is all about the story, why is there Sharknado?” Filmmaking is more than an art. It is also a business. We are very excited to have Anthony Young come and talk about the business of filmmaking that is not taught in schools. A member of the Television Academy (Emmys), Anthony started his journey in the field of entertainment in 2012 and in a few short years, developed strong ties in the industry. An outside-of-the-box thinker and "left brain-right brain" strategist, Anthony approaches the development, execution and distribution of projects in unique and creative ways.

Anthony joined Legion M Entertainment Inc. as an Investor / Co-Owner in 2016. Legion M is the first fan base owned production studio and to date has raised over 10 million dollars in equity crowdfunding and co-produced projects such as Colossal, Mandy, and Tolkien. Joined Isparked Studios as Development Executive in 2017 and co-produced "Chosen Kin" currently on its second season at Amazon Prime.

In 2018 he Co-Founded Alter Ego Studios, his first foreign production company in Australia and Beijing which in Sept. 2020 acquired Nebula nominee A.A. Attanasio’s critically acclaimed best-selling sci-fi novel “The Last Legends of Earth” for series development.

In Feb. 2019 he Co-Founded Stargirl Sounds, a Los Angeles-based company with subsidiary offices in Beijing and Shanghai that focuses on unique and disruptive strategies in the development, distribution, and monetization of content for the Millennial and Gen Z market.
