An Unsolicited Letter from an Agency Producer...

Dear Richard,

I mainly wanted to let you know how impressed I have been with you on
this job. It was a roller coaster up until the first day of shooting
and you didn't once make it feel like the coaster was flying off the
tracks. Your thought of bringing in a make up artist to the 3rd casting
saved the spot. The fact that you were able to get a subway car up
to Vancouver from LA starting calls on a Friday afternoon really
impressed me and then when you continued to pursue another because
it was better looking truly showed me the passion you have for the
product. It's a rare find in this business. I also understand the
pressure you have making sure the client is happy and your director
is happy. You handle that with incredible professionalism. Once
we were shooting, it was smooth sailing. There never seemed to be any
confusion and the communication lines were constantly open. My supervisor,
Sam Walsh, was very impressed with how the production was going while
the airport continued to do business as if we weren't even there. (yeah
I was too) You put together a great crew who all worked there asses off
but none as much as you did. From Line Producer to Web Master to Art
Department to Photographer. You simply amazed me and I will look forward
to any opportunity I have to work with you again.

Cheers.
