I have been teaching film studies classes for the last three years and love watching and analyzing films myself. I have a Master's degree in Strategic Communication. As my capstone project, I analyzed Outer Banks' season 3 marketing strategy and how it gets fans to watch the show. I love TV and movies and looking into the deeper analysis of the story and structure.
