A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Julie Antti is an actor, musician and dancer who's passion for the arts fuel her life. Raised by a single dad who was an acrobat and clown for the California Renaissance Pleasure Faire and Dicken's Christmas Faire, Julie grew up surrounded by the performing arts. She quickly took to them all. The Faire gave her the foundation for her professional career as an actor, singer, dancer, and musician. Through years performing children's theater, community theater, and Shakespeare, Julie gained an appreciation for characters with diversity and complexity. She is a storyteller that loves making people feel through her performances. Theater lead to film. More recently, she has expanded her work to include commercial, industrial and voice over acting. She has matured with her roles from ingenue into Mom/business professional. Her greatest high comes from moving an audience to tears and laughter. She loves learning from new directors, is inspired by challenge, and constantly honing her craft. Julie currently works with the sketch comedy group, Hot and Funny. She is thankful for the opportunity to create comedic content online during the Covid-19 pandemic.
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.
