Tia Ivanka is an Indonesian actress and presenter. She started her career as an advertising model. After the advertisement, she was offered to play in the soap opera "New Pondok Indah", which was directed by the same person who directed the advertisement. Her name became known to the public when she starred in the soap opera "Tuyul & Mbak Yul", and got even more popular by starring in the soap opera "Panji Manusia Millennium". After being successful in the world of acting, she tried her luck in the music industry. Under "Amartya 8", she combines her vocals with Didi Rachman, Anjasmara, Gunawan, and Anggi and released an album titled "Cinta Kita".
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:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
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.
