Profile bio

About René Brar

René Brar is a Head of Development (Unscripted) at Big Time Decent Productions Inc.. Colleagues describe them as "Rene has a rare ability to get to the emotional heart of a scene, and to ruthlessly drill down to the truth of a scene from the words on the page. I feel like I had a master-level course in directing by watching over his shoulder on set, and I've taken what I learned and developed them in my own projects. I've worked on dozens of passion projects, but Martin's Pink Pickle stands out as one of the few that really lived up to its potential. Rene's ability to do a lot with a little, and his determination to push through and finish the job are a big part of its success. I am proud to have worked on Rene's film, and I'm looking forward to helping on the next one. I'll be there, no matter how big or small."
