  • How to Email Industry
    Mar 9 2026

    The old Hollywood gatekeeping system is dying thanks to technology. Gone are the days where artists were barred from entry by iron gates and an army of assistants. Anyone can contact anyone now! Artists have direct access to executives, directors, producers, and investors at the highest level…but what do you say when you write to them? Welcome to the art of the pitch: each and every email should be captivating, professional, and clear. This week, host Misha Calvert uses her 25 years of experience in the business to talk you through all things email. They might seem simple, but one faux pas on email could cost you a job.
