As I was trying to come up with a concept for my show, I was also watching Big Little Lies. I think Big Little Lies is revolutionary for its use of music in the show. The music supervisor and director Jean Marc Valle decided to use only music from outside sources. None of the music on the show is written for the show.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>How did you come up with the name of your show? Do they really call you TV Tommy?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My parents, specifically my dad, used to call me TV Tommy as a kid! Since I was little, I have essentially been glued to a television screen. I\u2019ve always been fascinated by it, which led me to major in Film and TV!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>If you had the chance to create your own TV show, what would it be like?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If I had the chance to create my own TV show, I think it would probably be a murder mystery, in the vain of Big Little Lies. I think shows and movies that effectively make use of a twist are fascinating. My dream cast for this fictional program would probably star Ryan Gosling, Jake Gyllenhaal, Cole Sprouse, Tilda Swinton, Cate Blanchett, and Julianne Moore. These actors don\u2019t have much overlap in programs, but I think it would be an interesting mesh! It would most definitely be on HBO<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Share some of your favorite moments at WTBU!<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some of my favorite memories from WTBU probably took place while I was on WTBU News. I met some of my favorite people while working on the show. I also developed my confidence. I went from just wanting to learn the equipment to writing stories and reading them on air! Now I have my own show and it\u2019s one of my favorite parts of my week!
