    Stephen Tyler

    Director of Technology, deadCenter

    Founder of Mostly Harmless Media


    In this special interview on The Cinematic Schematic podcast, we talk with deadCenter’s director of technology, Stephen Tyler, about how deadCenter 2020 pivoted to a virtual film festival following the COVID-19 pandemic. We start by discussing how he stepped into his role and how the shift to a new approach to screening movies has changed the way attendees and filmmakers interact through pre-recorded Q&As and remote recordings.

    Speaking from an attendee perspective, the virtual filmgoing experience has been seamless and without any disruption. Tune in to the full interview to get the inside details about how Stephen led the tech side of the team to build a successful virtual film festival and created countless hours of supplementary content for the online event.
