Hello! My name is Rua Fay, I am from Boston, Massachusetts and I am a huge cinephile. This is my website where I talk about everything concerning my favorite art form: film! Growing up I was not surrounded by a lot of people with similar interests so I figured I would make this website to write about what I love and hopefully connect to others who share the same love for cinema as me! Here I post reviews, analysis essays on my favorite movies and probably a lot more things as this site continues to grow. Since I started Cinemasters in 2021 I have been fortunate enough to do press coverage for film festivals like SXSW, TIFF, Tribeca, and Cannes. I currently study film at Ithaca College, where I serve as a Life and Culture writer for The Ithacan newspaper and as President of the Ithaca College Film Society. I'm on track to graduate in 2026. My favorite directors of all time are Stanley Kubrick, Charlie Chaplin, and John Waters. If you've stumbled upon this site, thank you so much for taking the time to stop by my website and I hope you find something you like!

Eric Hardman
Writer
Hi, my name is Eric Hardman, and I am a filmmaker, critic, and historian currently based in Los Angeles. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, I've learned everything in my life through various forms of cinema. I've been writing, talking about, and creating it for as long as I can remember. I'm apart of the Arizona State University class of 2025 with a BFA in Film and Media Production in addition to being a Submissions and Development Intern at the International Screenwriters Association. When I'm not writing, you can probably find me yapping about film on Youtube. My dream is to be able to use my voice and reach as many people as possible through art to ignite broader creative horizons in us all. Thank you all for being apart of my journey. Long live cinema!

Hello! My name is Cade Earick and i'm an avid film and music lover from Rumney, NH. When not listening to or writing music, I often spend time analyzing and enjoying cinema, as well as producing films and documentaries. I also enjoy acting, playing roles such as Lefou in Beauty and The Beast and Elwood P. Dowd in Harvey. I thoroughly enjoys arthouse films, oscar-bait, b-rated action flicks, and Wes Anderson. I'm so excited to write for all y'all, and share my love of film and film music with all of you!

Zach Zanatta
Writer
Hi! My name is Zach Zanatta and I’m a University student from Toronto. I’ve been watching movies basically my whole life and it doesn’t look like I’ll be stopping anytime soon. I started my cinematic journey with animation and horror, and those two genres haven’t stopped being my favourites since. I’m a big fan of Italian Neorealism, classic slashers, and silent comedies, but I’m always willing to branch out and try something new. Some of my favourite directors are Charlie Chaplin, Federico Fellini, Dario Argento, Ingmar Bergman and Paul Thomas Anderson. Besides movies, I’m into art and music, basically anything that isn’t sports. I have a ton of things I want to say about movies, some good, some bad, most likely all unprofessional, so check my stuff out here if you’d like.
