Natalie Kocekian, Platform Operations Manager, joins Susan and Ben to discuss Love and Basketball, a 2000 romantic drama. Natalie shares what it’s like having a career working in brand partnerships and consumer products. She discusses her trajectory at Lucasfilm, the difference between a brand partnership and a product placement, and transitioning to her current role at YouTube. She also shares how it feels to see fans react to “The Force Awakens” trailer at her first Star Wars Celebration Convention and seeing her first Star Wars credit roll across the screen while being with her father. Natalie plays our “One On One” game.
