I was part of Courage from very early on and I worked side by side (in a digital sense) with Justin Rister on some art design, art and set consultation, the original logos used for advertising, props ideas and the website art (My wife did all of the coding).

Courage was a fun project to work on and it had a lot of promise, but the series was undermined internally by a few unprofessional, aspiring actors.

Live and learn.

Michael really is a driving force behind Freedom. When he decides to do a thing he throws all of his creative forces at it. He's been very careful to handpick the people that he believes will take each aspect of Freedom and make it happen. The writing team alone is doing a great job. From rough drafts to finished scripts it's going to be a great series.
A lot of preplanning, propbuilding, writing, casting, set dressing, and set building have filled up the last four plus months, and my hat is off to the people doing the work.

Wow, thanks William for the kind words. I appreciate that a lot.

I nearly forgot the other help we've had from Courage. Philip De Lorenzo is letting us use some of the music.

And he does great work. His music was one of my favorite parts of the Courage project.

Phillip seemed to like my tradsinging, I wish that had gone somewhere for me.

Hopefully this series gets further.

Oh, and if you need a woman to play a charactor who is touched, like an extra from the academy, I really want to, too bad the series that started in my city flopped, or else I might have faired better and my browncoat group would be involved still with said project. :("A completely coherant River means writers don't deliver" KatTaya

I put my money where my mouth is.
Hopefully more will do the same.
