Ross is a good guy. Fun, informative lectures, high energy--during office hour when you plan your paper, he'll give you tons of great and ideas and direction. He's hyper like a cup of coffee when he talks and I love it. Real friendly dude and cares. He won't do you dirty.

101C . Melnick R D 7 Years Ago

By far one of the best professors I've had. His lectures are so intriguing because he does a great job of putting everyone in the proper mindset for each film. The movies he picks are also reeeeeally good. Plus he is fun to talk to.

187MG . Melnick R D 8 Years Ago

He is my favorite professor at UCSB. So passionate and so knowledgeable about film. He's so easy to talk to and he's so helpful. Everything is easy as long as you go to lectures and understand the concepts and ideas of each of the readings.
