Drawn By Pain :: Cast and Crew EP2

	Marissa Parness - ACTRESS - "Emily Waters" Recent graduate of the musical theatre program at circle in the square theatre school in New York, Marissa Parness, in many ways, made the film possible. In every scene Marissa left her heart and soul on the screen and I will be forever grateful for her week in week out effort. If every experience in working with someone is this easy – I cannot wait to make more films. She is currently seeking representation in New York City. Contact Marissa Marissa on Myspace
	Guy Rader - ACTOR - "Douglas" Guy is a lifelong actor and has been collaborating on the “Jeskid” team for over 10 years. Not only a great friend to Jes, but a real inspiration with his 100 percent sincere best he gives in everything he does on-screen and off.. In his spare time, Guy plays washboard and vocals in "The Drunken Swimmers" - a NYC-based jug band. A great talent and friend till the end. Contact Guy
	Torre Reigns - ACTOR - "Jackson" Torre is working towards his B.A. in theatre and just wrapped up the production of Iphigenia at Aulis, where he played Achilles. Torre not only gave a 100 percent commitment in the auditions and on set (with an awesome performance), he also assisted in getting all of his fellow thugs cast and organized. I have him to thank for the talented team of actors that put in a great show on a crazy sunday afternoon. Torre is currently seeking representation in NYC. Contact Torre
	Brandon Basquin - ACTOR - "Mikey" Brandon's genuine nature and big smile made the shooting day a whole lot easier. When the camera rolled, his instantly transformed into the complete opposite of his good nature showing off his acting chops. He would be an asset to any production as his imagination and enthusiasm is catchy and invaluable. Contact Brandon
	Jarde Jacobs - ACTOR - "Patrick" Jarde Jacobs, a dedicated actor having received his BA in theater from Clark Atlanta University, and an MFA from Rutgers University hails from Brooklyn, NY. Jarde also made the shoot a real pleasure as his focused demeanor and willingness to give it all made the scene that much better. Jarde is currently looking for commercial and legit representation. Contact Jarde
	William Mason - ACTOR - "Tyrell" William Sudan Mason is a graduate from Virginia Commonwealth University with a B.F.A. in Theater. "He would like to thank Jesse Cowell for the opportunity to be a part of a fun and physically demanding project." William would like to thank his family and loved ones for their support, especially his girlfriend Lydia and their 20 month old son Amir. Contact William
	Ledwin Lopez - ACTOR - "Antonio" Ledwin showed a real professionalism and eagerness throughout the day and probably has the honor of being my favorite kill in the series so far. A good guy with an interesting look, Ledwin strives to bring his passion for acting to other productions. He currently can be seen in the international short "luck." Contact Ledwin Ledwin on Myspace
	Elizabeth Plevy - ACTRESS - "Young Emily" From the moment Elizabeth Plevy walked in the audition room, she showed not only an utter professionalism for her young age, but also the rare ability to communicate everything she was feeling without relying on words to say it. She loves acting and is currently is looking for representation in New York City. I believe she truly has the talent to make any director a happy one. Contact Elizabeth
	Jesse Cowell - WRITER/DIRECTOR Jesse, known as "Jeskid" on the webernets has been making films intensely for the past sixteen years. His goal is to give people the gift of movies he got as a child and hopefully bring them back to where they should be. He has a real love of people (I do really!) and always encourages all around him to throw caution into the wind and go for it.. In his spare time - wait he has no life outside of sitting in front of this computer :) Contact Jeskid
	Erica Langworthy - ANIMATOR Her utter commitment from day one convinced Jesse that this film was even possible to make. Not a week has passed that she has not come up with an innovative design, crafted a shot to give it a more intense slant or help out by designing make-up on set. Using her Art background combined with everything digital, Erica is sure to be someone in high demand soon. The only drawn back to having someone this talented is knowing you will lose them to better opportunities. She certainly deserves it. Contact Erica
	Matt Sisco - COMPOSER - "Des Real" and "Nineveh" If I could clone this guy I would. Matt creates a large part of the original music for DBP (including the opening) and gives many of the episodes the sound that drives them forward. A really great collaborator, I see nothing but good things for this young talented musician. Matt's Website BUY/Listen to Drawn by Pain Music
	Jeff Strathearn - COMPOSER - "Idle Time" The group TSU is based out of Ohio (USA) and consists of one member, Jeff Strathearn and started in the early part of 1994. Jeff is also a film editor, camera operator, director and script writer as well as a musician, and has goals of completing his first feature film (on as little budget as I can get away with!) by the end of 2008. Contact Jeff BUY/Listen to Drawn by Pain Music
	Nico Audy-Rowland - COMPOSER - "Invisiblepen Suite Redux" Nico Audy-Rowland's music can be heard on the popular machinima series Red vs Blue and The Strangerhood, Project Magma's maps for Myth II, and the Halo 2 Limited Collectors Edition DVD. He has performed alongside members of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Chicago Symphony, and New York Philharmonic, and has opened for many profile acts. He is joined by the haunting vocals of Misty Noor and Martha Williams in what is a central theme for Drawn By Pain. Nico's Website Contact Martha Contact Misty Noor
	Matthias Wiesen and Band Man Inc. - MUSICIANS - "A World So Cold" I first found Matt and Bad Man Inc's work on the popular site Newgrounds.com. The first time I heard "A World so Cold" I knew it had the soul of the character story I was trying to tell buried within every chord. Easy to work with, despite Matt (music) and BMI's (Lyrics and vocals) living in different countries, their passion to get it right has given the film an element that fits perfectly.

	Steven Bordelon - CREATIVE CONSULTANT There are several pieces of the puzzle that always make projects like this work and one of the major elements is Steve Bordelon and his numerous skillsets. Steve has helped with everything from script notes to Sound Design. He is a tireless team member and awesome Director in his own right (with his award winning film "Phoenix"). Having helped Produce Jesse's last feature "Shades of Gray" - Steve has truly made himself an invaluable asset for many years. www.Phoenixfilm.org
	Victor Gonzalez - CREATIVE CONSULTANT Victor's contribution is hard to describe as he'll do anything to help keep things moving. From a top level, Victor helped make a lot of the key decisions that went into planning the film. From the ground floor, he sat through editing sessions and offer invaluable advice. He even came to the shoots to make sure everyone and everything is safe. He is another long time friend (and cast member of "Shades of Gray") who makes it all tick. If surrounding yourself with good people is the key to success, I (Jes) must already be successful :)
	Charles Parra - ONLINE CONSULTANT Charles brings the X-factor to everything web. It's like I (Jes) went out and found someone who could fill in all my dumb gaps and make me seem smarter. He is helping to run the base of operations around here and make sure we are able to reach as many people as we can with our little (BIG!) film. He is also working on making things more fun and interactive as we go and I thank him from way down for all the support. Contact Charles
	Mackenzie Stricklin and Ashley Dellafave (the two awesome mean little girls in the film), The Plevy family (Randi and Robert) for just about everything (starting with the use of their house!), Lillie450, Joy4kicks, Don, llcoolbean, Chantell, everyone at Jeskids World, RVB, Andy D., The city of Concord, NH, My mom for being my inspiration, Kim Spicer for the amazing casting/planning help and anyone who ever told me it couldn’t be done – thanks for the fuel! I <3 all ya guys.
