I attended the New York Film Academy back in 1998 and initially majored in Film/Video at FDU. I have always had an appreciation for great films, music, food, art, technology, presentation, fashion, design, and more. I love animals and nature. There's just so many unnecessary films, sequels, and "fluff" out there. I look at the ability to be inventive, innovative, imaginative, original, groundbreaking, and catchy. I also enjoy many films which are not innovative or exactly groundbreaking. When reviewing something, I generally compare the product to other products in its same genre or category. I try to remain as objective as possible, and keep an open-mind to other people's viewpoints. We can often learn so many things from each other and gain fresh insight into people, places, and things, and more, if we remain open.
