Game Over Series (Sun Center Studios)
I really want to be a part of Sun Center Studios (Alston, PA) but they don’t appear to be hiring yet. I’ve tried to make several in roads. Ideally, I want to be Sun Center Studio’s Official Blogger – interviewing the filmmakers, actors and crews on the lot, taking photos, keeping the public up-to-date on all the happenings at this premier sound stage facility. Owner, Jeff Rotwitt plans to make the studios a big tourist destination with tours, upscale chain restaurants,shopping etc.. like a mini-city just outside Center City Philadelphia. With all that, the Sun Center website will require a full-time blogger, and that blogger is going to be me!…

Philadelphia Film Society at Tribeca Film Fest
I sat down with PFS Executive Director, Andrew Greenblatt to get the scoop on what he liked at the 2011 Tribeca Film Festival and what Philly audiences might expect during the upcoming 20th Philadelphia Film Festival (Oct. 13-23, 2011). My first thoughts when it comes to attending the more well known film festivals, is all about being a part of the gala celebrations, red carpets and rubbing elbows with the celebrities.
