2015 BEST PICTURE!!! The Masked Saint
June 12, 2015 5:41 am
‘The Masked Saint’ an Inspirational Story based on a True Story of Pastor Chris Waley starring Brett Granstaff
Based on a true story, The Masked Saint details the journey of Chris Samuels, a professional wrestler and family man who realizes he needs something more. His calling to become a pastor prompts him to return from wrestling and move with his wife and his daughter to a small town. Yet the battles he faced in the ring are minor compared to the challenges he must overcome at his new church.
From an overbearing congregant and failing attendance to mounting bills for church repairs, Chris has his hands full. When he stumbles onto a fight on the seedy side of town, his passion for justice and wrestling skills take down the assailant and a masked vigilante is born.
His talent, as well as his violent secret identity, begins to overshadow his calling as a pastor and it takes his faith and family to remind him about grace, goodness and the truth.

That’s entertainment: what – and how – will we be watching in 2020?
April 28, 2015 8:14 am
Take unlimited creativity, add multiple platforms, throw in faster and smarter tech and you’ve got the ingredients for the biggest entertainment industry shake-up since the introduction of sound.
That’s entertainment
The battle lines have been drawn: consumers have broken free of traditional formats and schedules, and we now want our content wherever and whenever it suits us. It’s the biggest disruption the entertainment industry has ever seen, driven by new tech. As Senior Lecturer in Strategy and Director of the MPhil in Management at Cambridge Judge Business School (CJBS), Dr Allègre Hadida is always fascinated by what’s driving change. So she posed the question: just what will we be watching in 2020 – and what will we be watching it on?
Hadida identifies several shifts that have recently changed the way we consume audiovisual content: first, platform proliferation. “TVs have become almost obsolete in most homes,” she says. READ MORE
