Perils of Online Dating: Match.com

OK, so you’ve just broken up with your boyfriend. You’ve been shoveling Ben and Jerry’s down your throat for a month now, and you’ve watched Ever After a total of 18 times. It’s time to move on.

Inside Source

Film Camera Filming A Webseries Writing is Hard

The Art of the Webseries

Needless to say, it frustrates me when people assume “anyone can write”. You may not have to be formally trained, but writing is a difficult and time-consuming process. AND relying on your actors to come up with good dialogue is a cop-out. Take the time to write something good. If you can’t do it, find someone who can. It’s not easy.

Django Unchained Film Review Critic Jamie Foxx Christophe Waltz

Review: Django Unchained
