Who Is Baron Ambrosia? A Film Master Mind!!

Justin Fornal is an eccentric independent film maker with a unique creative mind and hardcore guerrilla approach.Since graduating with a degree in film from University of Pittsburgh in 2000 he has produced a series of acclaimed underground science fiction works including the much sought after feature length cult classic,Canzo Empyrean.The film’s final scene features Fornal’s character fighting on the Manhattan tower of the Brooklyn Bridge, a scene which landed the film maker in jail. Quotes such as,“I can’t imagine someone renting the Brooklyn Bridge for less than I did…a $160 fine”,summarize Fornal’s no hold barred way of getting results.The film premiered in Africa danger-zone Monrovia,Liberia in June 2007 and led to near riotous conditions.The film’s U.S. premiere took place one year later in an abandoned ballroom beneath the Bronx.Fornal transformed the space by hand into his own personal guerrilla theater equipped with a bar, chandeliers, and 12 foot screen, seating for 100 people,he christened it the “Mastabah to Megiddo”.Since moving to the Bronx 6 years ago he has become one of the boroughs most recognizable faces.

The Passion Of A Plus Size Model: Jessica Enid Pardo!

"Why try to FIT in when we are all born to STAND out."No one can live by this anymore than this young aspiring plus size model, Jessica Enid Pardo.She was always a chunky child and grew up with a family interested in the arts/entertainment. She struggled as a child committing to a passion she felt comfortable with because her weight was always an issue to her.She struggled as a musician ( playing and learning various instruments from drums, keyboard, trombone, guitar..etc) because she could not accept her figure and did not feel at ease when people would look at her.She later hid behind the scenes and started taking pictures of other musicians and their bands and locations, this turning into another passion....PHOTOGRAPHY.Now it is easier for her to accept herself as a beautiful plus size woman.She is trying to break the barrier between what the modeling industry considers beauty and what in fact is beauty...and that is everything.Jessica says "My weight held me back from that dream at first but now plus size modeling is welcomed.I feel comfortable in my own skin and I just want people to see that and realize that we all come in different shapes, sizes and colors.Hopefully having my voice heard will lead to my dream becoming a reality.She is Puerto Rican, tall and chunky and she loves all of who she is & has become.Her goal is that she would love to be a role model for younger girls who don't really feel comfortable in their own skin or are being judged because of how they look."I don't believe there are ugly people...beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder."You can view her portfolio at myspace.com/JeniPierce86.
