My Name is Brian Ortega. I’m a Writer/Producer who specializes in producing sports betting content and writing film & television reviews.
I’m passionate about creating entertaining content for film, award season and sports.
With the finger on the pulse of Hollywood. I write about movies as a film enthusiast and try to serve as a point person in any film discussion. Balancing the importance of big budget blockbusters and bringing to light independent cinema to the masses. I cover awards season from a film lover and sports betting angle to help predict winners of each season.

Below are examples of my work ranging from first person film experiences, film reviews and Academy Awards analysis.

The work of watching movies throughout the year and analyzing contenders is only part of the job of predicting nominees and winners for the Oscars. During Oscar season I do multiple podcasts, radio and broadcast hits that highlight the intensity that many people take award season. I specialize in using my film knowledge and knowledge of the academy’s voting body in an approachable and enthusiastic way.
