The Athletic Nerd turns 1 in less than a month!

I’ve been busy planning some new content for that week but for now, I thought I’d look back at an action packed first year.

This blog originally began as ‘After Then & Before Now’.  A blog about my production company 17 West Productions.  It wasn’t long before I realized I had much more to say and the site evolved to become The Athletic Nerd.  A movies, screenwriting and independent film blog.

Slowly, the site established an identity with various regular features and content.

Features like:

Most recently, the site introduced Movies That Changed Everything.  A series devoted to films that inspired my filmmaking aspirations.

Over the course of the last year, I’ve also spent a great deal of time enhancing each of the categories I write about.  You’ll find a ton of posts in topics like:

Recently, I added an Interviews section with several planned in the coming months. 

More independent film.  More movies. 

I’m addicted to the entire process and it’s honestly been a blast to write about. 

In addition to all of that, The Athletic Nerd still remains focused on 17 West’s films and the filmmaking process.  On this site, you can find out all about our films and upcoming projects.

  1. Playing Through
  2. The Climb
  3. Strings

Not to mention Reviews, Technology and much much more.  If you’re an aspiring filmmaker or a film fan then hopefully The Athletic Nerd has something for you.

It’s definitely been a productive year and I’m looking forward to evolving this blog even further in the future. 

Basically, I’ve got big plans for this site that include continually updating with new and original content daily.

In the coming months, I’m going to be shifting my focus towards screenwriting in order to finish up some projects and prepare for some ambitious scripts I want to tackle next.  I’m also editing our latest short film, The Climb in addition to several new features and content for this blog.

It’s going to be a busy year.

So dear reader, explore and let me know what you like (and dislike) about the site.  I’m always up for suggestions and look forward to making this a better site.
