Miranda Feinberg
Expertise
Horror, Indie Films & Directors, Celebrity Gossip
- Miranda is a total film nerd and is obsessed with all things movies & movie news — watch any movie (or TV show) with her, and she'll tell you who all the actors are, what else the director and writers have worked on, and other random facts about the cast, crew, and general making of the project.
- Celebrity news is her bread and butter — she thinks she might be hopelessly obsessed with Twitter (sorry, we mean X) gossip and memes about her favorite actors, artists, filmmakers, musicians, and pop culture events.
- Her love of horror began with Stephen King novels (she read them when she was way too young), Ginger Snaps, and the Scream franchise.
Experience
Miranda has focused on writing, editing, and film & media all throughout her academic experience. At Tufts University, she was the managing editor of Melisma Magazine and an arts writer and copy editor for The Tufts Daily. For Melisma, she wrote concert reviews and music features; for The Daily, she reviewed films and television shows. In college, she fell in love with writing fiction, too, and qualified to write a feature-length screenplay as her senior honors thesis, for which she was awarded High Thesis Honors. Miranda is also interested in film production and screenwriting and has worked on various film sets in various roles, including script supervisor, assistant director, and many, many stints as production assistant.
