Introducing: CLASSIC CINEMA: Ep 1. SUPERPOWER WISHES was recorded live on Facebook  and Youtube on Tuesday May 11th, 2021 at 7:00pm EDT. 

Hosted by producer, writer and comedian Michelle Barbera.

Guests: John Semper and Paul Salamoff

Michelle Barberais an artist, comedian, producer, and writer who lives in the Boston area with her husband, 4 children, and dog. She is cofounder and co-director of the Women in Comedy Festival, presented by HBO, now in its 11th year. She discovered her love of sci-fi and horror via unmonitored cable viewing and stalking the Worcester public library throughout her childhood. Checking her closet for pod people every night for two years was a small price to pay for the joy of vicarious interstellar journeys, sentient AI, and watching a human head sprout legs and scuttle away.

Boston-born John Semper was there at the very beginning of the Boston Sci-Fi Festival when he was the assistant manager of the legendary Orson Welles Cinema. He has since gone on to have a forty year career writing and producing TV series and movies in Hollywood. He is best known as the writer/producer of SPIDER-MAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES and co-writer of the cult comedy film CLASS ACT. 

Paul J. Salamoff has been working for over 30 years in Film, TV, Video Games and Commercials as a Writer, Producer, Director, Executive, Comic Creator, Storyboard Artist and Make-Up FX Artist as well as a Teacher at  THE NEW YORK FILM ACADEMY. He is the author of ON THE SET: The Hidden Rules of Movie Making Etiquette and the graphic novels Hired Guns, Discord, Tales of Discord and Logan’s Run. His short stories and essays have been included in acclaimed anthologies including MIDIAN UNMADE: Tales From Clive Barker’s Nightbreed and THE CYBERPUNK NEXUS: Exploring The Blade Runner Universe and he is a two-time Bram Stoker Award Nominee. Salamoff's feature-film directorial debut ENCOUNTER, is a multi award-winning Sci-Fi/Drama based on his original screenplay that stars Luke Hemsworth, Anna Hutchison, Cheryl Texiera and Tom Atkins.
