Shaun Paul Piccinino

Shaun Paul Piccinino (Peach-ah-nino) is an award winning Filmmaker and Television Director.  He has been pursuing his passion of entertaining through the lens of a true fan of film & television. Since his move to Los Angeles from Northern California in 2001, he has worked in just about every aspect of the business. From acting, to action coordinating, from script writing to producing, from editing to visual effects, all the way to feature film directing. Shaun has become an extremely well rounded filmmaker. This gives Shaun a special understanding of most departments, what they do, the intricacies, as well as their day to day struggles and how to over come them. This really helps in team building and reacting appropriate to problems should they arise on set. A very important key, to a smooth show.  A few early achievements include the hit Spike TV series, "Deadliest Warrior", where Shaun not only directed many episodes, he also portrayed Scottish hero William Wallace. Shaun has also performed in many projects, from the Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 (video game), "UFC Undisputed 1, 2, & 3" (video game)..."Spider-Man: Web of Shadows" (video game) and "The Lackey" (Award Winning Feature Film). As well as dozens of Visual Effects projects with ACME Film Works and the hit Cartoon Network Series, "Robot Chicken" with Seth Green.  He has trained in Martial Arts, is an AAU National Champion in Martial Arts, a 4th degree Black Belt Shaolin Kung Fu and 1st Degree Black Belt in Okinawan Karate. Shaun was able to use these skills in films, television and 37 action video games to date and even partaking in a shootout atop a moving train on ABC's hit show, "Revolution".

About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.

Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
