Mica Scalin’s Summary

I worked on my first collaborative blog in 1999 and began working specifically with online video in 2004, and have since been passionate about using these new distribution methods to expose a broader audience to superior quality content. I have worked with independent visual and performing artists, as well as, large media corporations to create online marketing strategies which incorporate the social web for project development, promotion and distribution.

In 2006 I created The Public Address Network, LLC to develop leading edge content, for internet and mobile distribution. Our video podcast The PAN was featured in Wired magazine's 'Guide to Online Video Explosion' (May 2006 - cover story).

My current professional goal is to fuse my work in commercial television and film with my passion for independent media and social causes, to develop meaningful entertainment experiences.
