This independent film was picked as an Official Selection of the 2016 Afro-Punk Film Festival, 2017 Troma Film Festival, 2018 Philadelphia Independent Film Festival, and 2019 LA Punk Film Festival.[citation needed]

Pliskin has stated that when he began directing music videos, many bands and musicians noted that his background in punk rock, hip-hop and reggae was beneficial.[2]

In 2016, Pliskin was chosen by head staffer of the Sanders campaign Robert Volosevich Jr. to photograph and document Presidential hopeful, Bernie Sanders.[4]

Pliskin started his film production company, Raised Fist Propaganda,[5] after graduating Hofstra University in 2001.

His lifestyle clothing line followed in 2006 and its opening reception event was hosted at the Etnies Showroom in NYC which featured Pro Skaters of the Supreme/Zoo York Crew.[citation needed]
