    PLUG: Final Cut
    I’m starting a new feature on my blog that I’m keen for people to get involved with: Battle of the Sexes.

    That’s a working title… Basically, I want to start a new feature based on the differing views of men and women regarding certain types of films. Audiences are far too easily pigeonholed and a lot of films don’t get the kind of viewing figures they deserve because of the assumptions people make about them...

    PLUG: Spaghetti Sauce and Sweet Peas
    My film school is having a competition and I need votes. This is a film that I made way back in 2005 when I was a junior. I graduated from Chapman in 2007 with a BFA in film production.

    It is not my best work, but I want to try to win this just for the hell of it. The projects entered for this contest are called 3-2-1. Three pages of script. Two characters. One location.

    You don’t have to sign up. You just need to vote...

    PLUG / PRESS RELEASE: Subject: CINEMA (Popcorn N Roses)

    Editor’s note: I’m throwing a slight curve again. I’ve decided to handle Plugs in the same fasion that I’m currently handing press releases and other movie-related news you need (might possibly want?) to know. So, same protocol if you have a Plug: either email me or post it at the LAMB Forums, but just remember that, if you do so, it will look something like this, so do it up right!

    Guys and Gals, and fans...

    Plugs 11/12

    I know I normally have some picture of an electrical outlet or something like that to accompany the Plugs post, but when I spotted this one, I couldn’t resist using it. Please ignore the left-leaning overtone (especially if you’re right-leaning) and focus on how great it is that a lamb is telling you to vote, which coincides perfectly with the first few Plugs…

    * Voter turnout for Who are LAMB? (our quick demographics...
