By Scott Barton I had the good fortune two weeks ago to host a series of phone interviews to promote the release of “Bully” that became available to the public on 2/12 courtesy of Anchor Bay Entertainment. This heralded documentary from The Weinstein Company became its own cause celebre when a focused, determined high school girl from [...]

By Ed Peters I miss having the Oscar ceremony take place on Mondays. For most of the world, having a late night Oscarcast on a school night meant staying up to all hours to find out who gets the entertainment industry’s brass ring: the Academy Award for Best Picture. But for those of us living in Hollyweird, Oscar Monday pretty much meant [...]

The SPPR Team has the unique pleasure of being able to work on the critically-acclaimed documentary film, Bully, that helped spark a national movement that rallied people to stand up to bullying, hate and intolerance. The film is hitting stores TODAY. Help us spread the word by sending out the word via your social media pages. We’re [...]

By Melinda Giordano It is the beginning of the year, and we have already been awash in awards: The SAG Awards, the PGA Awards, People’s Choice, the Golden Globes and on the horizon, there is still the ominous hum of the Oscars®. So perhaps it is suitable that SPPR, Inc. will also be involved in an awards event; one that actually [...]

By Tim Williams I recently had the pleasure of working on the release of The Dick Van Dyke Show: The Complete Series on Blu-ray. This isn’t a pitch for you to go out and buy the box set, although it’s worth every penny. Nope, it’s a chance to mention the fact I got to meet and spend a little time with a true TV legend, Dick Van Dyke. [...]

By Ed Peters Every January, the International Consumer Electronics Show holds its annual trade show in Las Vegas. Attended by over 100,000 buyers, analysts, press, and industry-affiliated rubber-neckers, the CES is where consumer electronics manufacturers present their latest and greatest TVs, audio systems, Blu-ray players, computer accessories, [...]

As I sit here in a deserted office late on a Friday afternoon, I can’t help but reflect back over the past year. At this time last year, we had been in our new office space some 60 days or so and were still dealing with the “where’s this?” and “where do you think we packed that?” syndrome. We had a lot to look forward to as [...]

By Tim Williams The holidays are here and since I was a kid I’ve always enjoyed celebrating with a few good movies. Most times they don’t even have to be holiday related, just a bit of warm and fuzzy entertainment to make the winter months a little less cold and the new year more bright. I thought I’d ask my friends at SPPR what [...]

From Jarred Hopkins One would have many assumptions about an entertainment public relations agency based in Los Angeles, CA. I envisioned “too busy” bosses along with snarky co-workers watching your every move to celebrate your failures and downplay your successes. It felt like the first day of high school all over again. Would [...]
