How Can a 21-Year-Old Be an Executive Producer?

Easy: by wanting to be one for the longest time. Producing is definitely one of my strengths: I love to multi-task, manage, delegate, create and stick to deadlines, and effectively communicate. I also enjoy being creative and working with others.


One day, I want to write and produce my own sitcom. If I could learn how to be a competent director, I'd do that as well. I love comedy because I love making people laugh and enabling them to poke fun of their own idiosyncrasies; Lord knows I have a lot of them! I also dream of working with my classmates because I had the chance to work with some of the most talented casting directors, technical directors, writers, producers, stage managers, audio, and post-production personnel. At the same time, I am awed by the professionals who work out in Hollywood and hope to meet and work with some of the industry's best people.


I'm ready to take charge and conquer the world of television. Hollywood, here I come!

"Toy Story 3"

I'm often skeptical when sequels come out. I believe in the saying, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." When those brilliant Hollywood studio execs decide to remake a TV classic into a movie, I cringe. When they commission an SNL movie, I shudder. When they demand sequel after sequel, I gag. I was nervous about the third installment of TS, but I was pleasantly surprised.

I missed some of the toys, including Bo Peep, but I enjoyed Jesse and Bullseye. Once again, a supposedly cute toy is a vaillian. However, there were more laugh-out-loud moments in this movie than I expected, including the moment when Mr. Potato Head becomes Mr. Latke. I enjoy Estelle Harris a great deal and loved it whenever Mrs. Potato Head had a line.

TS3 was very sad, but I think it's a nice conclusion for an epic saga. I really hope that this is the end because to do future installments would do a huge disservice to the movie's premise (not to mention the fans). Good job, Pixar! Maybe you'll pick up on Oscar for this movie.
