Producer
Natashia Betancourt co-produced the Orlando screening of Doin' It In The Park, a film directed by Bobbito Garcia and Kevin Couliau that explores the dynamic culture of pick-up basketball in New York City. The project involved meticulous planning, including securing a venue, coordinating event logistics, and forming strategic partnerships to ensure the success of the screening.
A key element of the event was talent management. Natashia facilitated Bobbito Garcia’s participation, managing his travel, accommodations, and local itinerary. The event featured a special post-screening discussion, where Natashia hosted an engaging conversation with Bobbito, exploring the film’s inspiration, the cultural impact of basketball in NYC, and the process of documenting the deeply rooted community around the sport.
From coordinating the event to managing the talent, Natashia ensured a seamless experience for both the audience and those involved in the production. The screening not only introduced Orlando audiences to the spirit of New York City’s basketball culture but also provided a platform for meaningful discussions about the film’s broader social and cultural themes.
