I am a May 2009 graduate from James Madison University with a Bachelor of Arts in Media Arts and Design with a concentration in Cinema Studies. My cinema studies courses over my four years at school have taught me about media’s affect on the culture and how film artists can shape their medium to target specific audience needs or to produce a specific effect. I have also thoroughly studied movies as an art form and movies as a societal media. My Dean’s List education in cinema studies has prepared me to be a motivated and eager worker looking to further the creativity and efficiency of your website. I am well educated in film history beginning with the Lumiere brothers and Georges Meilies. I have an expert knowledge of foreign films, specific film genres, and modern filmmaking.
