Justin Lothrop (Head of Development – Votiv Films)

Justin, after being medically discharged from the United States Military Academy in West Point, NY, completely changed direction and decided to find an industry that would allow him to apply his left-brained strengths to his right-brained sensibilities. Since then, he has produced a number of projects ranging from small new media content to full length features. His most recent credits include co-producing Rodney King directed by Spike Lee released on Netflix on the 25th anniversary of the riots and producing As You Are which was awarded a Special Jury Prize at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival and recently wrapped up a limited theatrical release. Currently, Justin resides in Los Angeles, CA working as the Head of Development for Votiv Films.

Stephen Emery (Head of Film & TV Acquisitions & Development – The Solution Ent. Group)

Stephen Emery focuses on developing commercial, high-caliber feature films to produce and finance in-house along with finding third-party titles to sell internationally. Prior to The Solution, Stephen worked at Circle of Confusion, as an executive producer on the action comedy  Mr. Right  with Anna Kendrick and Sam Rockwell, and on Jeff Hunt’s horror film  Satanic  starring Sarah Hyland. Before that, Emery ran Bill Gerber’s production company at Warner Bros. where he was successful in bringing films like Clint Eastwood’s  Gran Torino  into production.
