		Mark Myslín Email: mmyslin«at»umail.ucsb.edu Website: www.fredhope.com/hta_media I'm a second year Linguistics and Spanish major and I love analyzing the digital media revolution from the perspective of sociocultural linguistics. I've produced several yearbook-style DVDs and I coordinated the North Coast Student Film Festival in Humboldt County for two years. From time to time I do freelance work in web design. My ideas of fun include: wiling away hours in Photoshop, going on epic bike rides, watching obscure films from Spain or Latin America, and eating mangos. Peach Berkeley

		Danea Johnson Email: dxjohnson«at»umail.ucsb.edu Third-year Film and Media Communications double major! I am interested in the viewpoints and artistic talents of those without the privileges or experience to fully exppress themselves. I absolutely love film and have a knack for ruining movies by overanalyzing them. I am UCSB's Student Executive Producer for the San Francisco-based television network Current TV and I am looking for pod recruits! I enjoy production and editing and am well-oriented with Final Cut Pro and DVD Studio Pro.

hello

		Woo Lovinger Email: woosterl«at»verizon.net I am a second year film and media studies major who loves production, especially animation. Working at the lab gives me the opportunity to help others create amazing stuff and get help for my own creative work. That is what I like best about UCSB's film department! Besides making films I like eating and coaching gymnastics (maybe doing some gymnastics). It's all about the motion!

hello

		Annie Wilkes Email: anne_wilkes«at»umail.ucsb.edu At the time this blurb was written I was a third-year Film and Women's Studies major (I have no idea how often this bios page is updated). My interests besides digital editing include pop-art, water-colour paintings and deconstructing gender stereotypes. I am especially interested in how DVD creation can expand narrative as well as how independently created media interacts with and subverts mainstream media. I also like kittens.
