JDM student travels to LA to film Documentary
A Blog Converged is excited to report JDM student Ashliegh Jarzenski was chosen to join a select seven women crew set to direct, shoot and edit a documentary beginning August 13th in LA. The doc will help create awareness on the issue of domestic violence on behalf of the Mary Kay Inspiring Stories program and Dreaming Tree Films.
Jarzenski, a sophomore broadcast communication major who recently worked on JDM's 9.11 Remembered doc, is excited to practice what she's learned at AU on a worthy cause.
"I am so blessed to have this opportunity to create an awareness on this important cause while also learning so much more about the film and broadcast industries! I know I will be well-prepared to take on Hollywood thanks to the experiences that I've had in the short amount of time in the JDM Department. Hollywood, here I come!"
The piece features former Spy Kids star, Alexa Vega, and Joanna Garcia Swisher, who starred in the shows Privileged and Reba, who will narrate the film.
Stay tuned for reports from the set!

(R/TV) Alum featured in JDM's 9.11 Documentary
How do you know you're a Journalist? Like Police, Fire and Medical first responders, when everyone is moving away from danger, a Journalist moves towards the story.
In addition to the many outstanding faculty interviews, a highlight in JDM's new documentary on the 10-year anniversary of the World Trade Center attacks, 9.11 Remembered, features an interview with R/TV alum Jess Baker ('02), who along with her partner Laura Allenbaugh ('03), drove from Ashland to NYC with a video camera to cover the biggest story since Pearl Harbor.
Why? Because that's where the story was.

Coming soon...
It's been a busy summer for JDM.
In production for this fall are a couple of cool documentaries. (We think!) One on Ashland's annual Balloonfest, and another on the 10-year anniversary of the 9/11 World Trade Center bombings as seen through the eyes of Ashland faculty and students.
Check out the 9/11 Remembered trailer:

Oscar Docs All Worth Watching!
A Blog Converged would like to thank the Academy...
The good news is Hollywood's epic live awards ran a respectable 3.5 hours (compared to previous epics). The bad news? The show just seemed longer and was...really boring. Anne Hathaway can at least sing and dance. And we counted eight costume changes in her ultimate "dress up" host gig.
But from the "seemed like a good idea in the writer's room" file, James Franco as co-host? Of the Oscars? Seriously? In Drag? Ouch...
And when Billy Crystal walked out on stage how many of you had this thought, "Why isn't he hosting?"
We TiVo'd forward to the feature documentary category. The five nominees were:

We TiVo'd forward to the feature documentary category. The five nominees were:
Exit through the Gift Shop, by Banksy and Jaimie D'Cruz
Gasland, by Josh Fox and Trish Adlesic
Inside Job, by Charles Ferguson and Audrey Marrs (Winner!)
Restrepo, by Tim Hetherington and Sebastian Junger
Waste Land, by Lucy Walker and Angus Aynsley
Our picks? We couldn't decide between Gasland, Restrepo and Inside Job. Go see'um all!
A final Oscar note: one hilarious bit that slipped in under the radar ran on ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live after most people went to bed. Their parody entitled, "The President's Speech," is well...next year's nominee for Best Parody Video in a Talk Show!

Sundance Film Festival Opens Today!
Film fans and filmmakers alike have trekked to Park City, Utah for the Sundance Film Festival today.
Founded in 1978 by Sterling Van Wagenen (then head of Wildwood, Robert Redford's company), Sundance Film Festival has become a premiere festival for American and International Indie films. Sundance is conducted by the Sundance Institute.
A Blog Converged especially likes the Students at the Festival program for aspiring filmmakers, and the Documentary category. We like Andrew Rossi’s Page One: A Year Inside the New York Times.
“Storytellers broaden our minds: engage, provoke, inspire, and ultimately, connect us.”
