The Movie Critic... is Ndyana Swainston

Film is art...
That statement couldn't be more true!
Movies are such a major part of our lives, mine especially, and they are filled with major and minor breakthroughs alike.
I've always been fascinated with the subtle (and not-so-subtle) meanings and messages of films, almost like a treasure hunt.
The purpose of stories, of movies, is to connect. And how do we connect? Through discussion, through analysis, through storytelling.
I want to explore and analyse the plethora of movies and build a community of storytellers.
my video essay analysing editing styles
I have always been one to consider the bigger pictures and perfect the smaller details to fit it such. My mentality is to view things from the other side, the final product that audiences see, and adapt from there as I believe this is the most effective method of creating consistency in providing high quality and satisfaction. The world is a plethora of new ideas and I have always pursued this with unrelenting determination and I believe if we can tap into the best resource the world has to offer, if we can connect to people, we can achieve so much more.
