I was reading Alex Epstein’s Blog, and followed his link to the Film Industry Bloggers’ site.
It’s a great site, since it tries to cover a lot of the crafts. It seems that screenwriters are disproportionately represented in the blogosphere. (I’m gonna go ahead and guess this is a result of self-selection.) It’s fun to read a production designer’s blog.
I’m a little disappointed the site doesn’t feature blogs from two key department heads: cinematographers and editors. DPs I understand, since they work pretty much non-stop, from call to wrap. The lack of editors is a little bit more confusing; after all, they’re sitting at a computer all day, anyway. (Unless they work for Spielberg, of course.)
Unfortunately, they already have their production assistant. Yet another PA job I’ve missed out on.
Sigh.

I tried reading that PA’s blog but it made me want to blow my brains out. Your blog is far better and not to mention updated regularly.
I took your advice and we’ve just had Norman Hollyn start blogging with us. He has edited a ton of movies including HEATHERS…
Now I am on to finding a great DP!!! 🙂
Really enjoying reading your blog and thanks for the suggestion!

If they have more than one screenwriter, they can have more than one PA blogger!
