Blast: Boston’s Online Magazine is sending three reporters to Sundance Film Festival

BOSTON — BlastMagazine.com will send three reporters to Utah later this month to bring the hottest news in film to Blast and Boston.

Entertainment editor Brooklynne Peters, Blast film critic Ned Prickett, and video journalist Melissa Unger will go to the Sundance Film Festival January 21-25. They will send back stories in the forms of writing, photographs, podcasts, and videos.

Blast is very excited to be able to muster the resources to send three reporters across the country. We are especially proud that, as an online magazine, we can do this when many print publications can’t.
