THE REVERB is a show written by Gen Z for Gen Z. A Y/A murder mystery that centers around the turbulent friendship, or rather ex-friendship, between Cassie, a young, empathetic college student, and Aaron Blake, lead guitarist for the renowned indie rock band Entourage. Trouble follows Cassie home when Aaron mysteriously appears at her front door seeking refuge for the night. Chaos ensues when she learns that Aaron is rumored to be linked to the murder of his bandmate and lead singer of Entourage, Skye Thomas. Throughout the series, Cassie must decide whether to blindly believe Aaron out of loyalty, despite their many years apart, or fight to uncover the truth in pursuit of a greater calling to find justice.
THE REVERB stars Mari Blake (Yes, No, Goodbye – Short Film), Matthew Assheton (Edibles – Short Film), Sofie Zamchick (Wonder Pets – Animated TV Show), Fia Thomson (Dead Format – Feature Film), Niya Jé, Joseph Stewart, Mujeeb Rufai, and Caroline Rutschilling. The pilot was written and directed by first time creators and sisters Jordan and Janie Ruttert. The sisters were able to hire dedicated actors who were just starting their careers that many worked for free, while the crew worked only for kit fees. The pilot also features an original song in the credits.
THE REVERB has a running time of 30 minutes and 50 seconds and is available for sale in all territories.

About The Author
Editor-in-Chief/Entertainment Reporter
I knew early on that I wanted to take my place among the stars. One day, my mother saw me reading The Washington Post at a very young age. Who would have known that it would be the building blocks of my journey? Since that day, I dedicated my life to learn all that is learnable. I read everything from encyclopedias to books to dictionaries to magazines. I’m also an avid television viewer, with my favorite genre being game shows. If you’ve seen me on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire or Wheel of Fortune, then you know that this interest has served me well!
My unique style of reporting began back in junior high school, when I started to chronicle the events that shaped my life. Whether it was the annual family vacation or the local science fiction convention, I shot numerous pictures and recorded my thoughts so I could truly appreciate the history. During my senior year at Friendly High, I wrote what was to be my first masterpiece, “Advanced Space Academy – A One Week Journey.” I sent the eleven-page article back to the U.S. Space Camp staff. The article was highly praised for being “one of the best written articles in the history of U.S. Space Camp.” From then on, I knew what I wanted to do for rest of my life — to be a reporter.
Since then, I have trained in Broadcast Journalism at Bowie State University (2008) in Bowie, MD, earning a B.S. in Communications. I gained experience in news production and editing through field experiences with Bowie Community Media Corporation, Prince George’s Community Television, and Bowie State University Television. I also wrote scripts for a variety of quiz shows for over five years.
As a lifelong movie buff, I now see close to 100 films every year. I took this love of movies to the next step when I became a co-host for Eclipse Magazine TV in the fall of 2005. While at EMTV, I interviewed celebrities, worked on red carpets, and attended a wide variety of movie screenings. In January 2009, I took a leap of faith and started my own entertainment news magazine, The Rogers Revue. Shortly afterward, my lifelong journey of studying the silver screen and writing about what I learned finally earned me a place in the Washington Area Film Critics Association.
All of this has led me here, giving you the latest entertainment news for the DMV and the entire nation, and I am truly excited for whatever will come next.
