Brad started RopeofSilicon.com in 2003 as a hobby and a way to possibly create an online portfolio in an attempt to get work as a freelance writer. Suddenly he realized he was having a hell of a lot of fun spawning the site you see here today and the changing designs you see above. He is now a member of the Broadcast Film Critics Association (BFCA) and has been running RopeofSilicon.com as his full-time job since 2007. |

Kevin discovered his love for film when a series of knee injuries abruptly ended his career as a high school athlete, leaving him laid up for months on end with little else to do besides watch movies. While in college, Kevin worked at a small-town video store, hopelessly recommending movies like Volver and The Squid and the Whale. His greatest achievement came after he convinced the local horror fanatic to rent The Orphanage after she'd already rented every single movie in the horror section. Much to his delight, he found her digging through the foreign film section during his next shift. Writing for RopeofSilicon.com allows him to continue being a slacker couch potato while helping others find joy through the power of film on a greater scale. |
