We loved having our friends from Film Tampa Bay, Birdie Doyle and Sam Allen, stop by TBCN recently! 🎬 ❤️

Birdie, Film Tampa Bay’s Digital Media Producer, and Sam, Marketing & PR Manager, joined us as guests on the TBCN's Unplugged podcast for a great conversation about Tampa Bay’s film and production community and all the exciting things happening in our local industry.

It was especially fun having them on our side of the microphones after TBCN Executive Director Antonia McCutcheon recently joined Film Tampa Bay’s Loose Framing podcast!

We’re always grateful for opportunities to connect with others who share our passion for strengthening Tampa Bay’s creative community and supporting the people who make film, television and media happen right here at home.

Thank you, Birdie and Sam, for spending some time with us at TBCN! We loved having you!
