Lee, all I can say about your walk is WOW!! Makes me proud to be of
Ukrainian heritage.
A few of the whiners I've observed on the TV show On The Lot could learn
a few things from you :-)
In addition to Bob, you should post your question on the forum. I know
that issues such as preparing for film festivals come up periodically
and the help is generally outstanding.
If I lived closer to you (I'm just outside of Windsor, Ontario across
from Detroit, Michigan), I'd be glad to offer any help that I could.
However, the only time I make it to Chicago is to visit a sister who
lives in one of your northern suburbs.
Good luck with your project ands please keep us informed as to how it's
going.
Mike
