Pitching Insights
Barry Hertz’s coverage is heavily centered on film and the wider entertainment world, especially around major festivals, industry shifts, and notable releases. He seems most responsive to pitches that offer timely access, sharp commentary, or a distinctive angle on current film-world developments rather than generic promotion.
He also frequently writes with a strong point of view, so pitches tied to opinionated takes, festival buzz, or behind-the-scenes industry context may land better than straightforward announcements. Sources with direct knowledge of new releases, production trends, or major film events will likely be the best fit.
His work is aimed at a national Canadian audience, so pitches should keep Canada in view.
