Martinelli brings her entertainment experience from working at Creative Artists Agency (CAA), International Creative Management (ICM) and worked a summer at HBO. It was during her tenure at these high-profile companies, that Lydia gained in-depth knowledge about the business in television, cable shows and filmmaking. Lydia resided as Chairman of the AWD Directors’ Television Mentorship Program (2007-2009). With extensive travels overseas and living abroad in Italy, Greece, Australia, Canada and in various cities within the United States, it becomes natural translating impressions of authenticity in her filmmaking efforts, also, she speaks the basic in four different languages.
