Sirvan Khosravi is a prominent Pop/Rock Singer/Producer/Keyboardist based in Iran, best known for his sophisticated productions and the fresh sound he introduced to Iran’s music scene, breaking off from the traditional atmosphere which had previously dominated the industry. He started his career in music by producing, mixing and mastering songs for other artists, working behind the scenes and quickly building a reputation as one of the best producers and engineers in Iran all the while working on his own music, developing his sound and working on records that would go on to become big hits. Some of his hits include “Tanha Nazar”, “Doost Daram Zendegiro (I Love Life)", “Khaterate to (Memories of You)”, “Soojehat Tekrarie” and “Ghabe Akse Khali”, which immediately became sensations among the young audience in Iran. Among the artists associated with him are Kaveh Yaghmaei (his close friend and inspiration) who is a well-known and highly respected guitarist, singer and songwriter, and Sirvan’s brother Xaniar Khosravi, who is also a popular singer/songwriter and works both as a solo artist and as a member of the band “Ehaam”.
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.
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.
