Blake Meadowcroft

Blake Meadowcroft was born and raised in Washington state and he’s too lazy to move to another one. He graduated from Charles Wright Academy in 2014, and then Central Washington University in 2018 majoring in Film and Video Studies with an emphasis in critical studies. He was a DJ for two years at 88.1 The ‘Burg, his college radio station, and has some experience in stand up comedy. In layman’s terms, he’s really good at watching movies and saying if they’re good or not. His parents didn’t really put a cap on how many or what kind of movies he was allowed to watch when he was growing up, so he kind of……went crazy. He is passionate about film history and filmmaking, and approaches his reviews with both a critical mind and a wry sense of humor. He doesn’t like to pick favorites in terms of genre (although if you were to twist his arm, he’d probably go with fantasy). He’s willing to give any kind of movie a chance and doesn’t judge it based on what kind of film it is, but how well it’s made. Blake has volunteered and interned for multiple film festivals including the Ellensburg, Gig Harbor, and Tacoma film festivals, and has experience working as a theater manager at a boutique movie theater. He lives in Redmond, and is currently a film critic for Lakeside Living Magazine.
