Preparing For The Next Scene

As 2013 comes to an end. I have so much to be thankful for. Being able to release our film, Depravity, and submit it to like four major film festivals was a total blessing. On top of all that, we were able to produce another stage play, Thicker Than Water, which was just another amazing experience. I am so excited to see what God has in store for next year. Launching my new website was probably one of the most exciting things that happen to me this year. I would like to give special thanks to Pierre Drummond for blessing me with his talented gifts on his best work yet. I have had the pleasure of working with some talented people. Special thanks to my partner, Ashton Kristopher Bracciodieta, for not only putting up with me over the last two years, but for also believing in me and my work, and helping me take my career to the next level. I am looking forward to our next project, The Donor, which will go into production in January 2014. We say it every time, but this will be our best work yet. It is definitely one of the most emotional pieces I have had the pleasure of writing. I am so thankful Jay D'Alba thought enough of me to bring such a project to my attention. I am also thankful that Ashton took the time to help me build the skeleton for our film. Katrice Galloway, you have been here since my second film. Thank you for sticking by my side through all the ups and downs. Kasheed thank you for always being there and giving my productions a special heart beat. Keri Hollingsworth, you know you are amazing as well. Thank you for helping me make every production smoother. Uriah Peterson, you give me a lot to look forward to, with your breath-taking art designs and heart-felt composing. Steve Rose, we wouldn't have a film without you!!! Thank you for your passion and dedication on every project. Stephanie Williams, thank you so much for blessing us with your amazing presence and your amazing creativity. We look forward to working with you again. Stacy Williams, thank you for all your support, and for also coming on board and blessing us with your amazing gifts. Last but not least, I want to thank all those talented actors I had the pleasure of working with this year. You guys brought it this year!!! To the most amazing parents in the world, your son loves you dearly. His biggest goal in life is to continue to make you both very proud!!! Well, 2014 is almost here, and all I can say is I am so thankful God has allowed me to make it this far. I have so much to be thankful for, and so much to look forward to. It means the world to me to have all your support. Happy Holidays to you all!!! Let's make sure we give to someone in need and spend plenty of time loving on our families!!! Blessings!!! Blessings!!
