Our Writers

We do not accept routine guest posts about any subject. And we do not accept paid posts. Sorry, we do not believe in that. We get offers for paid posts every single day. We have no plans to accept them in the future. All articles pitched to us are based on a case to case basis and those that do not match the editorial theme or quality of the site will be rejected.

New Jersey Stage writers include Danny Coleman, Bob Makin, Eric Hillis, Tris McCall, Al Nigrin, Spotlight Central, Karen Nowosad, Charles Paolino, Kat Falcey, Adam F. Cohen, Bruce Chadwick and Gary Wien. Photographers like John Posada, Julie Hoffman, and Chris Paul contribute content as well. Everyone involved with the site is a volunteer - a group who love the arts.




 

If you are in New Jersey and interested in writing for NJ Stage, please send us an email and let us know what your interests are, what areas you're interested in possibly covering, and any previous writing experiences. Note: we do not accept everyone and there is no money for writers.

Syndication: Interested in having your work run at NJ Stage? We have worked out partnerships to syndicate work from other publications and blogs. If this is something you might be interested in, please email us with a link to your work. We will check it out and get back to you.

Animation films rule at the 2025 New Jersey International Film Festival

by Morgan Kalmbach
published 2025-06-06

Within the world of animation, an artist can choose between many mediums of art in order to best create the piece they want to make. Some choose to stick within one form, and others experiment with multiple. No matter what an artist chooses, their decisions, along with similar filmmaking ones, will not only guide audiences through the work but also offer meaning and set the tone for viewer receptions and interpretations. It is for that reason that this decision is important and paramount within an artist’s process. Artists Nick Zweig, Elizabeth Schneider and Michael Covello, Esther Casas Roura, and Maureen Zent have all made this decision within their respective films, and the end results have no doubt succeeded in reflecting their creators’ thoughts and feelings. Despite this, the films are incredibly different and expansive within their creativity and uniqueness, cementing them as must-watch pieces.
