What is the main focus of your site? | The main focus of my blog is reviewing new releases. I will also post trailers for upcoming movies I find intriguing or want to expand to a larger audience base. I also like to write about movies, directors, and other critics that have had an impact on me throughout my life as a cinephile. |
What are your blogging goals, personally and/or professionally? In other words, what, if anything, are you trying to get out your blog? | As a theater actor, I know the Minneapolis theater scene but I want to branch out into the film community as well. I have always had a passion for movies. In hopes of gaining a larger audience base I also want to reach out and meet other up-and- coming critics in the Minneapolis area. I would love to write professionally whether it be for an online publication or a printed publication. |
Do you prefer an interactive community for your blog or are you the teacher and your readers the students? | I prefer an interactive blog. I love reading other readers’ comments and trading thoughts back and forth with other movie lovers. |
How long has this site been active for, and how frequently do you post updates to your site? (Note: sites must be active for at least three months for entry to the LAMB.) | I created my blog back in May 2010. I tend to post something new each day on my “Snapshot Trivia of the Day” page of my blog. New reviews or trailers get posted once or twice a week. |
Name up to three of your favorite movies (and no more). | Stand By Me, The Godfather, E.T. The Extra Terrestrial |
