Austin teen filmmaker profiled on PBS
Emily Hagins, the 17-year-old Austinite who scripted a feature-length zombie film, “Pathogen,’ at the age of 11, is featured on tonight’s episode of the PBS series “Biz Kid$.” Hagins has also been profiled in the documentary “Zombie Girl: The Movie,” which chronicled her efforts to make “Pathogen.”
The fast-paced “Biz Kid$,” from the creators of “Bill Nye the Science Guy,” uses comedy and interviews to teach kids about the concepts of money and business. Hagins discusses the importance of persevering in a business venture and finding inspiration in a mentor in the episode, entitled “Escape the Box.”
“Biz Kid$” airs Fridays at 5 p.m. on KLRU.
