Interview with:Lisa [detheo]
PROFESSION
 | What is your profession? What is your title printed on your business card? For now, am just a student and happy to be one :)
My major is Political Science and European Affairs.
Not very creative, but I do hope to end up in a government and/or European agency involved in culture and arts. |
 | What did you study and why did you choose to study that field? I studied English literature for my bachelors -an amazing experience.
Now I'm doing my Masters in European Affairs and it's a mix of political science, law and economics; it's challenging but mostly in a good way. I picked that major because I am an idealist at heart and actually believe in European integration. |
 | What links do you have on the Internet: website, blog, social networks? I have a website/blog where I write about movies: http://detheo.org
I use Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr on a regular basis. Flickr and Last.fm as well. |
 | Which languages do you speak, and how have you learned them? I'm a native French speaker. My English is fluent as I have lived in New Zealand (exchange year) and I have worked in England (London and Manchester).
I also speak Spanish, have been studying it for almost five years.
I'm able to understand Cambodian as both my parents are originally from there, although I was born and raised in France, so unfortunately I am barely able to speak it. |
 | Have you explored the social networks for professionals online? Are you member of any of them? Yes, I am on Viadeo although I've only just started using it. |
PHOTOGRAPHY
 | Do you have an online gallery where one can view your photos? http://www.flickr.com/photos/liz_detheo/ |
MARKETING
 | Please list web addresses where one can see something about you. http://detheo.org |
BLOGGING
 | What is your blog address? What subjects do you deal with? http://detheo.org
I mainly write film reviews.
I also blog about the award season, the Cannes film festival, trailers and movie news in general. |
 | What was it that made you create your blog? On what date did you start it? I wanted an outlet where I could talk about films freely without being annoying to my friends and family :)
I started it five years ago or so. |
 | What blogging system have you adopted and why? I used to be on Blogger, and then switched to Wordpress.com and I'm now using Wordpress.org.
It's the most satisfying and simple thing to use really. |
 | How many visits a day do you get? What type of comments do you receive? Not too many I would guess.
Comments I have are usually friends or people I know that disagree with my reviews :) |
 | How has 'having a blog' contributed to your life? A lot.
This blog got me an internship at the Cannes film festival!
(although I never did it because of exams. But I would have if only my exams hadn't been moved at the last minute...) |
PERSONALITY
 | Which actor would you like to be? Male: Cillian Murphy, Ralph Fiennes, Edward Norton.
Female: Rachel Weisz, Naomi Watts, Kate Winslet. |
IDEAS
 | Did God create the world in seven days, or do you believe in the theory of evolution? Evolution all the way.
Actually am reading Darwin's On the Origin of Species at the moment, it's a very interesting read. |
CONSUMER
 | What brands do you think are up and coming? Brands I use almost daily, in no particular order: Blackberry, Clarins, Lancel, Ralph Lauren, Packard Bell, Nikon, Chanel, Moleskine. |
PPRR
 | Do you blog or twitter? Of course :)
