I need to feel comfortable with writing quality things on a regular basis for an audience. I watch a lot of movies. You guys are my audience--even though Stef seems to be the only one aware I’m here (no, I didn’t advertise; yes, it’s my own fault - most things are)
In my reviews I am aiming for several things.
Word limit: 500
Develop a voice.
Convey the meaning (if any) of the film
Explain how that is apparent
Dispel other reviews if they have clearly missed the point
Pass personal judgment
Write as often as possible
In the future (fog, hole) it would be the bees knees to communicate with other reviewers and have actual debates.
Also, I will review things like books/plays/advertising schemes and what have you… The restraint I’m putting on this is Media (yes, with a capital m).
?!?!?!
