DIY filmmaking, marketing and distribution w/ Filmmaker Ava DuVernay
I asked Ava how is she able to do all of this while also running her PR firm, she said, yes, she's a little busy, but she has a hybrid staff of really amazing people who work with her on both ends, and she's now super selective about the projects she takes on in terms of media and marketing; her current selection being the film The Help with Viola Davis.

Looking for “Likes” on Facebook
Yes, I know everybody is looking for facebook likes as if it paid actual money or something. It’s kinda like flashing your boobs in New Orleans during Mardi Gras for beads.

Technically, It is Food in Film – LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS
I had a writer, Camiele White, contact me requesting to be a guest blogger. She works at a costume shop – Star Costumes which offers a scholarship to students studying to work in the horror film industry. Cleverly, as a way to promote these endeavors, she’s been writing posts for movie blogs. Since I can’t make any money from Tinsel & Tine, I like to at least be a possible conduit for others. Camiele came up with a rather dark, but original take on the whole Food in Film theme: You Are What You… When it comes right down to it everyone’s appetite amounts to about the same thing. Greed,…
