Pitt in Hollywood

Hi everyone, welcome to Pitt in Hollywood! My name is Ben Asciutto, I am a graduate from the University of Pittsburgh with a degree in Film & Business. Throughout my years in college, I was fascinated about what my career will look like after my time at Pitt is over. In 2022, I spent a month in a study away program called Pitt in Los Angeles where fifteen of us had the chance to sit down with some of the most influential people in the film & entertainment industry. These people happened to be - not from USC, NYU, or UCLA - but from our alma mater: Pitt!
