Trinidad and Tobago’s Andrew Joseph joins me in this episode to talk about his work in developing the film and television industry throughout the Caribbean and its diaspora. Andrew is a documentary filmmaker, writer, business developer and business analyst.

We discuss:

  • The international demand for Caribbean content.
  • Profitability of Caribbean content and Andrew encourages fellow content creators not to wait on funding, but to first invest in themselves. 
  • The need for innovation and support when producing Caribbean media. 

One of the biggest takeaways from our conversation is the need for others to support Caribbean media houses like GT Network and Breadfruit Media in order for us to grow. This is especially important as we compete with major media platforms for visibility.
