Not satisfied with the status quo, Gibson used his experience and education to develop two important contributions to American culture. In 2000, he launched GIPP Entertainment, followed by GIPP Museums, Inc. The acronym stands for “Getting Into People’s Perspectives,” a philosophy that drives both the African American Cinema Gallery (AACG) and the Hispanic Cinema Gallery (HCG). Gibson has been a part of launching numerous successful film festivals inclusive of founding PVIFF.
He obtained his BA from High Point University and an MBA from the University of Phoenix. His qualifications as a cinema expert include teaching screenwriting on the collegiate circuit, producing film and television, consulting entertainment brands and more.
PVIFF was my introduction into the movies. And now, I handle a multitude of productions in the Film & Music Industry. My career wouldn't be what it is without PVIFF.
The screenings were amazing. But then to top it off, they had a Pitch Tent with Adi Cohen and others. That was a game changer for me.
It's an honor to be a part of the Peachtree Village International Film Festival. The work they're doing actually brings producers, writers, actors, and talent all together under the same roof. Kudos!
Located in Atlanta, GA, we have several villages around the city for various events!
