About the guest:
Beth Bell is an entrepreneur, business consultant, and a long time IATSE Studio Mechanic, with a career in film and television production that spans decades.

After spending many years in the Set Dressing and Decorating departments on such television shows and feature films as House of Cards, Game Change, The Replacements, Runaway Bride, Twelve Monkeys, Washington Square, Pecker, Contact and For Richer or Poorer, Beth was very familiar with the use of product placement to dress and prop feature films.
