I’ve been working with the Press Play Blog on Indie Wire for a while now and several months ago, Indie Wire was bought out, but the blogs weren’t. So Press Play has been looking for a home for almost six months and they finally found one—NoFilmSchool!

I pitched NoFilmSchool a series last month and they greenlit it. It’s on film movements and the first one went up today! Hope you like it!

Thanks so much for your continued support!
