Action Festival Testimonial – October 3 2018

I… Continue reading Action Festival Testimonial – October 3 2018

Gustavo Freitas (OPERATION BROTHER SAM) Being able to have professional actors reading your script is a wonderful experience. It’s invaluable. Feedback was good, but it can’t be compared with a table-read. First, it was very satisfying to see all these characters come to life. Second, to be able to hear an actor performing your material is… Continue reading Action/Adventure Festival – August 22 2018
