DON DINGAS Director / Actor / Writer Creative Bio  Don Dingas has been working professionally in the entertainment industry since 1990. Born in Philadelphia, Don began his career in front of the camera at the age of sixteen, performing in local commercials and television shows. As his career flourished, Don found he also had an innate knowledge and a strong interest in production, and especially, cinematography. Naturally, it wasn’t long before Don found himself eager to learn more about cameras and directing, and he soon founded DFT Audio Visual production company. Don began producing television programming for PBS, along with, hundreds of television commercials for, American Express, Anderson Consulting, KPMG, Comcast, the United States Army, American Cancer  Research, CBS, ABC, World Television News, BBC London, Allstate, Anheuser-Busch, Johnson & Johnson, Israeli Television, and many more.  Alongside of his busy work schedule in corporate programming, Don also found time to continue his passion for the arts, and has produced three feature films, and two national award-winning documentaries, with focus on environmental awareness. His keen skills in producing, directing, writing, acting, cinematography, editing, and even, composing, have all grown exponentially. Don’s newest effort, his third feature film, is entitled, “AURORA 663”. It is an action-packed, Psychological Thriller - Action movie, which is currently enjoying a successful, and award gathering, worldwide  film festival run.  Don has proven himself to be a highly motivated, impressively savvy, and incredibly talented professional filmmaker and actor, who has many projects in various stages of production. And who always has an eye out for that next great project. Don accredits his many successes to staying grounded and treating the work with respect. And he plans to continue enjoying his love of film making, and the thrill of acting, for a long, long time.

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.
