With experience in indie short filmmaking, Grant will lead the PR effort.
“I’m very proud to support this team and help bring this exciting event to Sheboyan,” said Rick Grant, President of RGA Public Relations. “I have had the pleasure of spending time with many indie filmmakers over the years. These creators offer us a different perspective on the lives we share. Bringing them to Sheboygan will benefit us all.”
The Sheboygan Film Festival is an annual film festival organized by Belladonna Film Project, a 501(c)3 film production company focused on independent film in the Midwest. The event is designed to celebrate independent film and further Sheboygan’s position as a creative hub in the Midwest. The regular deadline for film submissions ends June 6, and the late deadline for submissions is July 25.
“We are pleased to be working with RGA to share the word about Sheboygan’s own film festival,” said Beah Travis, Founder and Executive Director of Belladonna Film Project and Chair of the SFF Committee. “We’re looking forward to attracting cinema lovers and filmmakers to Sheboygan from all across the Midwest and beyond.”
Grant started his career as a journalist covering financial services and technology in New York City. He started his PR firm in 2007. The family moved to Madison, Wisconsin in 2015 and then settled in Sheboygan in 2020. He has produced short films and was the facilitator of the Madison Indie Filmmakers Meetup Group, a collective he grew to over 850 members.
