Hi, my name is Ian! I’m a second-year student studying telecommunications at the University of Florida.

Visual media is everything to me. I spend my free time watching new blockbusters, re-watching old classics/my personal favorites, taking photos on 35mm film, and writing every day. My dream is to one day I move to Los Angeles and make a living as a writer, so I study screenwriting and storytelling in my free time. I think that writing is crucial, and I consider it a universal medium because it can be translated to so many different forms. Without it, your favorite movies, shows, and songs would never exist.

I plan to post about recent happenings in the film industry, from steps forward in minority representation to critics’ praises and criticisms of the newest releases. I hope that my love of writing for film will rub off on everyone who reads these posts, inspiring them to read more about the craft and maybe begin to practice it themselves. I think that it is truly an underappreciated art form, and that people should not only develop a deeper understanding of, but also grow a greater love for their favorite movies through the study of it.
