    I do have some pics. Let me see if I can actually scan them and do something with them. I know Cindy Lentol had the same problem with her photo CD from the same photographer. She couldn't open them...so how do we get them? Good question.

    Hello Bradley, I always enjoy working with you on a set. You bring enthusiasm, friendship and great karma. I totally enjoy Euchre and cannot wait to play again with the "master". It is a great game of cards. You have the patience of a saint with the directions.
    Yesterday was alot of fun and a good day.

    Wishing you and your family all the best for Christmas and the holidays.

    Hello Brad,

    What a great site; thanks again for setting it up and monitoring.

    Any suggested sites to view VIDEO INTROs? I 'd like to see some samples before Wednesday,

    I joined the Voice over group and downloaded samples. How canI enter my name and description when the group is called up on the main page?

    Thanks again. See you Wednesday.

    Do you mean the Screen Writers group? I just joined it---I don't know how to run it! Will we get to be part of the pull-down "Our Groups" menu? Brad, I don't believe for one second that you are "organizationally challenged"---look at this whole website you put together! You're amazing! :)

  • Terri Nobleman

    Bradley, Thank you for the heads up regarding adding a "full skill roster" to my resume'. I was surprised at all the hidden talents I had. Who would think "skeet shooting" and driving a standard shift would come in handy. This is a great web site. An you have an impressive resume'. Again, thank you. I'm re entering the industry after a hiatus. So, I am open to what ever resources I can avail myself to. Thanks again, best of luck to you.

    Bradley,

     

    Just to let you know, and to send a word of thanks to you and to NEActors, my agent just called me to book me for "Frank the Bastard" as the character John. I appreciate the opportunity to have auditioned and look forward to working on what seems like a real interesting film.

     

    As a side note, my agent had called me a couple of weeks ago on behalf of a New York producer seeking New England/Boston talent for an upcoming shoot and I referred her to you. I hope you've heard something from them.

     

    very best,

     

    Ken Cheeseman
