Hi, I’m Nyah and I’m 24 years old,
So how did this Film Website come about. Let me take you back to when I was 15 years old or maybe even younger. Whenever I watched a movie, tv or theatre show I would go home and open my laptop and start writing reviews for myself and never really thought I would have an audience. Then my family and friends read a couple of them and said why don’t you give it a shot publishing them.
It wasn’t until when I was half-way through my Masters in my Sports Journalism course I thought, I want to pursue this for real. For my dissertation, I made a website just reviewing sports films and sports tv shows but after I finished my degree, I wanted to broaden my horizons to cover all genres of entertainment.
I think I always had an interest in interviewing people. I find them fascinating.
I still watch YouTube videos of Film Junkets, the series Actors on Actors by Variety and the Roundtable on the Hollywood Reporter. I wanted to do something similar. I wanted to interview people in the entertainment industry and hear and share their stories.
I am passionate about the world of entertainment and through my articles, reviews and interviews my hope is that Over the Shoulder becomes a forum where everyone can enjoy, interact and share their ideas about the movies that have inspired them.
