Hi, I wanted to dip my toe in the waters and say a bit about what I’m hoping to do with my slice of the Chlotrudis blogosphere. I’m a second-generation film fan – I get it from my father, from whom I also inherited an intense drive to learn absolutely everything I can about my particular hobbies and interests. As I’ve gotten more involved with Chlotrudis over the years, I’ve gotten more and more determined to find out about every other small or non-profit or volunteer-driven film-related event in the metro Boston area, as well as film-related website on the Internet. Sure, it’s a tall order to fill, and if I’m not careful, that way surely lies madness.
But in the meanwhile, and until such messy end, accompany me on my journey of greater film knowledge, won’t you? My humble goal is to post a new entry once a month, in which I will share what I’ve learned, or answer to questions I’ve puzzled over – for example, exactly how many niche film festivals are contained within the city of Boston?
From time to time I will also post other sorts of ‘roving reporter’ type fare – in fact, the next post of mine will fall into this category. Check this space in the next couple of days for the first of what I hope will be an occasional series of conversations with various members of the independent film community.
