On June 12 at 5:30 pm, Paul Vella will be coming to the
Marmora & Lake Public Library to speak about his
journey from seeing the movie “E.T.” to becoming the
head of production for a studio and share anecdotes
about working with stars like Ryan Reynolds, Kirstie
Alley, Jason Alexander, Ed Asner and Shirley MacLean.
He will also explain the various roles in the “biz”
including director, producer and executive producer.
As “Executive-In-Charge”, Paul was accountable for
all aspects of making film and television
programming, from development to release including
over $250M in production of programs seen by
millions of people around the world and winning
many EMMY Awards. The best-known programs
were for American broadcasters like “CBS” and “ABC”
and included mini-series “ME AND MY SHADOWS:
LIFE WITH JUDY GARLAND” and “SALEM WITCH
TRIALS” which combined were seen by over 40
million Americans from 2000-2005 and led Paul to
walking the EMMY “red carpet” more than once!
