How did you become part of this film project?
My co-worker Tree informed me about a project she is currently involved in, called Camille's Magic. She asked if I would be interested in volunteering on this project.
Why did you get involved?
As a Union Stagehand in Colorado Springs, where Culture is only found in laboratories, I realized long ago that becoming multifaceted was the key to my survival in this industry in this town. I have always been a strong believer in freedom of speech and thought, therefore my decision was easy. Besides, Gertrude's Restaurant (as caterer) made the decision a no brainer.
What is your day job? Day,Night,Afternoon,Evenings,Weekdays
and Weekends, just bring coffee and donuts I will be there.. Alas, I am
a Stagehand.. Theatre,Concerts, Conventions, Conferences, Parties and
Special Events are what I do.
Have you always been interested in filmmaking?Please
explain. Having grown up in a small Mining town in Arizona. Where entertainment
was in short supply and lacking in quality (for sure). In this hot and
dry area, the Movie Theater was always a cool and inviting place, where
escapism was a norm, the refreshments cold and a double feature was
.35 cents.. How could I go wrong.
In this time and place I realized that there had to be more
to Life than working, drinking, fighting and marriage. At this point the
questions who, why, when, where and what are we here for, became very
important to my existence. Movies became a way to gain an out side perspective
and a inward journey to the self.
By making films a person could possibly help others attain a higher and
richer outlook towards all Life on this small and Beautiful Planet.

What is your favorite movie and why?
Watching Movies has always been a personal and quiet time/place for me and so a favorite doesn't really exist in me. Good or bad movies always seem to give me something, whether it be a human nuance, a technical aspect, or laughs and entertainment. It is all good to me.
What do you hope to gain from this experience?
The gain from this experience will be hard to measure. People
such as Pam, Juliet, Robert the cast & crew will all have given so
much by the time we finish this film, that to merely mention the life,
technical and industral crossover potential will not be enough. The new
friends and acquaintances plus the possibility of joining other film crews
is and has been a dream for so long, that to be here now is a great gain
and more.
