A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME

Throughout my pre-teen and teen years, I spent a mass amount of time watching and critiquing movies of all sorts, so much so, that when I finally graduated from high-school , I decided to major in film for the duration of my time in college . My primary focus was on becoming a independent film-maker who writes his own screenplays. Unfortunately, that never panned out (No Pun Intended), and do to many financial set backs, I was forced to change careers.

PREMISE

Most movies (in some capacity), always seem to foreshadow the pre-existing future of things to come in our world. Whether it be an action packed sci-fi thriller, or a romantic comedy set in a dystopian future, movies are tailored to convey specific messages to the subconscious minds of the audience thats watching.

FAST FOWARD TO NOW

It was announced this week, that the social media juggernaut (Facebook), would be revealing a name change in the near future, that would better suit the direction the company is headed in. Facebook is currently transitioning from being known as a social media company, to being recognized as a metaverse company, (A shared virtual universe that will be accessible via the internet).
