Bio
Christine Prost
It is my absolute pleasure to recommend Mark Duston. I worked with Mark for a couple of years at Cinelou Films. At the time I had been VP of Accounting. I truly enjoyed my time working with him and came to know him as a truly valuable asset to the Cinelou team. He is honest, dependable, creative, and incredibly hard-working. He was always willing to roll up his sleeves and dig into whatever project he was presented with. His willingness, resourcefulness, and knowledge was a huge advantage to the development team as was his diverse skillset. Mark was a joy to work with, was a true team player, and always managed to foster positive and productive discussion.

Mark came to Cinelou when I was President of the company. He was immediately liked and worked hard to get up to speed with our film slate. It wasn’t long before he was offering valuable contributions to projects. Once he was comfortable with our film slate he began to contribute valuably to our development process. Next, seeing an opportunity, he took to the initiative to dive into our TV slate, seeking out new, exciting and interesting projects. He leveraged his personal relationships and those he nurtured from his work within the company to bring in talent and projects that truly transformed our television slate and greatly benefitted our film slate. He made himself an asset in talent meetings, pitch meetings, project acquisition and development, and worked to generate new relationships to further develop the company’s business network. Mark proved himself to be an asset that I would surely recommend to anyone looking for a self starting, driven, professional individual with a balance of both creative and practical acumen.
