Dayana, our “Charlotte” - thank you for volunteering to come and give life to this character. The video would not be the same without your contribution.

Bryce, the “Carpenter,” thank you for being anything and everything anytime it’s needed.

Greg, who I’ll always refer to as “Higg” - thank you for your time, your expertise, and your willingness to help a lowly filmmaker try to make historically accurate films.
