I saw a sneak preview of the new romantic comedy The Five Year Engagement: it’s making a debut at New York’s Tribeca film festival this April. The film is stars Jason Segel and Emily Blunt. I previewed this movie for a production company and watched for audience reactions and alternate ending options too. There were microphones and recording devices throughout the theater to record the audience reactions. To find these unique screenings, look online or in the local paper: you will get an insider view into the industry. Read the rest of this entry »

I got the opportunity to see the new American Pie movie called American Reunion. Jim, Michelle, Stifler, and their friends reunite in East Great Falls, Michigan for their high school reunion. It’s a must SEE! I loved it; it was really extreme and raunchy just like the first movie.

To most people, a new year symbolizes a new start: It’s a chance to focus on what you want to achieve in the year to come.  Visualize your success in 2012 & make attainable goals. If you know what you would like to achieve or work towards in 2012, make a practical list and put it on your refrigerator or mirror so you can be reminded of them every day.  You could even set a reminder on your phone.  Keeping your New Year’s goals in mind will be an achievement in itself.  Being reminded of those goals at the start of everyday will put you in the right mind set for making them happen.
