“It was a wonderful experience to be interviewed about my career track,” said Marcia Basichis. Vanessa Frank is a wonderful personality with whom I was able to go back in time with my modest beginnings at CBS Television Network, working my way up through ABC Television Network as Executive in Charge of Current Programming for such iconic shows as Battlestar Galactica, Loveboat, and Dynasty.
“I spoke about moving over to Aaron Spelling Productions and becoming the Head of Development, putting on the air such game changing smash hits as Beverly Hills 90210, Melrose Place, and the Emmy Winning television movie, “And the Band Played On,” which depicted to the viewing audience the genesis of the AIDS epidemic. It’s been some kind of trip for me.”

She pointed out how it is so important for aspiring creatives to gain knowledge about the hacks, routines, and principals that have propelled others to their success.

There are digital advances and cost effective technologies that will make many things possible, which creates an entirely new dynamic than my time as Senior Vice President at Spelling Entertainment.

She noted that she is helping both global media groups and flourishing startups find the right creative, financial, and technology leaders that can help these companies advance with the times.

If nothing else, I have learned to stay current you have to stay up on everything. If not, you are just someone else who gets left behind.”
