Meghan Nealon

Biography from TheMovieDB

Originally from Sacramento, Meghan’s passion for organization and logistics coordination led her to take on an AD role on the many short films she and her best friends made throughout their teenage years. Subsequently, she attended Southern Oregon University where she currently completing her thesis term as a Bachelor of Fine Arts candidate in Theater Arts. During her undergraduate studies in theater, she explored performance as well as stage management as well as various technical design areas. In addition to her performance thesis, Meghan completed an Honors Thesis which culminated in a multi-media exhibition exploring the impact of epistolary correspondence on individual identity and our ability to synthesize and interpret external stimuli in a media saturated society defined by immediacy. She became interested in pursuing film professionally as a First Assistant Director and relocated to Los Angeles in order to pursue this goal. In addition to working as a 2nd Assistant Director for Women In Media’s CAMERAderie Initiative and 1st AD on USC Thesis Films, Meghan works in commercial production. She is passionate about working to highlight traditionally underrepresented narratives and also enjoys exploring experimental film as a conceptual art form.

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.
