Where Tampa filmmakers unite.
New Issue Posts
06/02/12 - The Tampa Bay Film site network is being phased out, with many of those sites added back to the main Tampa Bay Film site, which will re launch soon. The Tampa Film Blog will be retained, for now, as an online archive, and all new blog posts will be on the new Tampa Bay Film site. There will now be a total of 7 Tampa Bay Film sites by the end of 2012, including Tampa Film Revolution, and of those, 2 do not yet exist. The menu on the right, and the thumbnail array up top, no longer work, and are only up to look at. The Tampa Film Blog is now closed until further notice, and will be maintained online for reference purposes only, with the new blog to be launched on Tampa Bay Film.
04/25/12 - Tampa Film Revolution, has a new issue post: Tampa Bay Film School Is In. Go Make Indie Films. The last issue post, Tampa Film Revolution Has Launched. Mission Statement And Objectives, has been moved to the issue posts section, but like all dynamic online published issues, it still remains in-play, with new content being added well after today. This "all issues remain in-play" strategy has proven to be extremely effective with Frontier Pop, which is the sister site of Tampa Film Revolution. The latest issue of Frontier Pop, by the way, is about Tampa independent film, and it is a crossover issue which ties in with Tampa Film Revolution. Choice! This is why we are the best, blog-wise, web site-wise, or with anything to do with Tampa Bay indie film. Our opponents know this, too. Go retool, tools.
04/25/12 - Reading through the Tampa Film Blog (there is a TON of awesome information on here!), and smiled upon stumbling upon this treasure, from March 11, 2010: All The Time In The World. Very interesting post from our archives, and you need to read it, now! This is why many Tampa filmmakers who have egos that their talent can't cash cannot compete, have been unable to succeed- they are just too limited, and not too bright, which explains their neurotic, insecure behavior! What are Paul or Joe going to help filmmakers and put Tampa independent film on the map? Why haven't they done it yet? In our opinion, they are not even has-beens. They are never-was's. Well, at least Paul can write, and most of his films are decent, although he is only just a filmmaker, and not good for much else, in our opinion. Speaking on has-beens, what is up with Tampa filmmaker Chris Woods? The once-talented filmaker responsible for Spaventare, the best short independent film ever made in Tampa Bay, not to mention other great films, seems to have fallen off the wagon. His latest film, "Taste me", absolutely sucks, and he's not going to like the review.
04/22/12 - The official online publication of Tampa Bay Film, Tampa Film Revolution, which is updated more like a super blog with issue posts published as-needed, will be where the majority of all Tampa Film Blog content will be published in 2012. Read it now, as it launched on April 4, 2012, and it is a very cool site!

05/14/11 - Tampa Film Blog Rebooted
This
is the Tampa Film Blog,
and this is our fourth year of being the primary Tampa
indie film blog of Tampa Bay Film and the Tampa Bay Film
site network. This film blog is also a part of the online blog network,
which you can reference above, of entertainment and business polymath
(renaissance man) C. A. Passinault, one of the most innovative
men in the entertainment industry today, as well as in business and marketing.
C.
A. Passinault is an experienced professional photographer, filmmaker,
director, casting director, audio engineer, foley artist, actor, event
planner, stage production producer, DJ, writer, designer, web designer,
copy writer, reviewer, critic, marketer, inventor, ethics activist, scam-buster,
and businessman, with professional skillsets and experience in many more
supporting careers. He is best known as a modeling and talent expert,
one of the top modeling and talent photographers in Florida, and a leader
and an innovator in the worldwide independent talent movement, owning
and directing the top modeling and talent resource web sites in the world.
He is also the man behind the Tampa Film Blog, and is a supporter of the
Tampa indie film scene.
This is also the fourth version of the Tampa Film Blog, and it
became fully operational on May 24, 2011. The content is organized
and optimized, as well as easy to look through and read, and it’s
only a matter of time before this blog is where we want it to be. We’ve
already done all of the hard work for you.
Effective immediately, blog posts on the Tampa Film Blog will not
be here on the main page, and we will list them as they are posted.
Currently, the Tampa Film Blog is a Super Raptor Class site interlinked
with the other Tampa Bay Film sites. Since our right-hand side menu is
maxed out at a total of eight sites, and there are more Tampa Bay Film
sites than that, now, we are working on the next generation web site as
you are reading this. By 2012, the Tampa Bay Film sites will all have
a new look, with excellent continuity between the sites design-wise. The
next Tampa Film Blog site, and
the other Tampa Bay Film sites, will be new Dreadnought Class sites, which
are optimized for scam fighting, designed to defend against unethical
practices in the industry, and are also designed to be expandable. The
new Dreanought Class siite, unlike the dual side menu array on the current
Super Raptor Class sites, will have a horizontal layout and main menu.
This new design is perfect for sites which have a lot of content, which
is what the Tampa Film Blog has.
Although the Tampa Film Blog is primarily the independent film blog for
Tampa filmmaker, entertainment industry pioneer, and business polymath
C. A. Passinault, this is the blog for all Tampa indie filmmakers. Here
on the Tampa Film Blog you are free to post your opinion, announce what
is going on, and even disagree and debate with opinions expressed here
which you do not agree with. Nothing is absolute, and healthy professional
debate is good for the Tampa indie film industry. You do not have
to disagree, though, and you can also add your opinion to an opinion already
posted here from someone else.
There is more, too. Updates to all of the Tampa Bay Film sites are covered
here, and news, as well as proven, indie film concepts and filmmaking
techniques. Want to make good, cost-effective independent films? Want
to get started as a filmmaker in Tampa Bay? Want to get involved with
the Tampa indie film scene and the upcoming Tampa film community? Want
information on advanced film festivals and indie film events which are
not only the best of their kind, the most effective, and the most innovative,
but which sincerely support Tampa filmmakers and independent film in Tampa
Bay? Speaking of innovation, do you want to innovate as a filmmaker, and
make the types of films which Hollywood is not doing? Also, do you dream
of the day that independent filmmaking in Tampa Bay is not only on the
map, but will be a worldwide leader in independent film?
Well, the Tampa Film Blog supports all of that, and we are the independent
film blog for you!
The Tampa Film Blog is the standard in indie film blogs for Tampa Bay,
and we set the example for the rest to follow. Tampa Bay Film is the authority
on independent film in Tampa Bay, and although our mother resource site
is officially the voice of Tampa indie film, we’re louder. We’re
not only an enhancement to that voice, but we are the perfect platform
for all filmmakers to voice their opinions about indie film and independent
filmmaking, and to make themselves heard!
The Tampa Film Blog is a work of passion; passion about independent film,
filmmaking in Tampa Bay, and indie film in the Tampa Bay area. We are
also a work of professional accountability, where the actions of people
in the local film scene are documented and preserved for the upcoming
generation of filmmakers, as well as the current. There is nothing else
which is more relevant for Tampa independent film and filmmaking than
the Tampa Film Blog. We set, and maintain, the benchmark in indie film
blogs.
Check out our latest posts now, or spend a few hours reading hundreds
of pages of the most innovative content in independent film today; we
are the library of congress when it comes to information on Tampa indie
film and independent film, with not only the most content out of any Tampa
indie film publication, web site, or blog, but we’re also the largest
independent film blog in the world, with more content than most books
on indie film. You can also find out what is really going on in Tampa
independent film, and what has happened. If you have an opinion, you can
also contribute by posting your comments or your own Tampa Film Blog post
today.
Enjoy!
