Spotlight: Erman Baradi, Filmmaker/Screenwriter/Author

Following our May edition of Hollywood Speed Networking, we have a sit-down interview with Erman Baradi, author/filmmaker/Hollywood event producer and talent advocate. We'll laugh (likely), talk about his poetry book out in stores now, and enjoy good company.

Erman Baradi bio

Erman is a blossoming filmmaker and screenwriter from Virginia Beach, Virginia now based in Los Angeles. In 2012, he received a Bachelor of Communication & Arts in Cinema-Television at Regent University. His first gig in the entertainment industry was working with No Malice of Grammy-nominated rap duo The Clipse. He would then intern at Mosaic Media Group in West Hollywood. In 2016 at just 26, he was featured in The Huffington Post as "a top networker in Hollywood" due to his extensive background in producing film, television, and music panel and mixer events which has taken place in Los Angeles, New York City, London, Chicago, Miami, Toronto, and Virginia Beach. Erman's passions as a storyteller include bridging entertainment and humanitarian efforts. In 2018, Erman launched Ermantourage for film, television, and music events and initiatives that spotlight and give back to special causes, such as mental health/suicide prevention endeavors, cancer prevention, and children's art programs, all the while connecting people. Erman is managed by Emagine Content and strives to write, produce, and direct original content. In late 2023, Erman released his poetry book "Bad Times & Goodbyes" in Barnes & Noble.

ERMAN’s mantra is: “If no one opens the door for you, build your own door and open it yourself.”
