Every now and then, a person comes to our attention that just wakes us up…makes us use a new prism to see life. That person is JOSHUA PADILLA, who has been named the new Multiplatform Marketing Producer for the legendary KING/KONG in Seattle. Director of Marketing JAY YOVANOVICH is very excited about his new hire. Sure, we all hear that when new folks come aboard, but this is solid. Sincere. Joshua is trading the Gateway Arch for the Space Needle (and much better fish). He’s been a Producer at KMOV in St. Louis. Hometown St. Louis. Love people in St. Louis. And what happened in St. Louis? Their news department did a story on Joshua…a story about a promo person. Imagine. Kudos to KMOV. That story (click here and go to the YouTube version) is both stunning and moving. Joshua, you see, who produces om-air promos (and very good ones to boot) is legally blind. He sees life in a different way…through the lens of his imagination. If that doesn’t leave you amazed, then you need some professional help. The San Francisco State University grad has been a writer at The Filipino Channel (Joshua’s heritage is Filipino), Assoc Producer at MYX TV, and Sr. Promo Producer at KDBC, El Paso. Let’s make sure Mr. P gets a huge, resounding Well Dunne!
