Man Down - Silent Miracle

Hi Everyone -

I try to keep the posts on this blog professional and not personal.

However, last night I learned some disturbing news.

One of very own, Assistant Director Joe Fortunato was involved in an automobile accident. A few weeks ago Joe was hit by a car while walking near his home (anyone who knows Joe knows that he enjoys his evening strolls). Joe had to be revived by a defibrilator and was taken to the hospital were he was treated for his injuries.

The good news is I spoke with him last night and he expects to fully recover. Truly a miracle.

Most of you never got to see all the 'little things' that Joe did to making SILENT a success. 90% of the work we do is behind the scenes on non-shooting days and in post production. I recall one night when I was editing the film and my video deck died. I called Joe up and within an hour he was at my doorstep with a replacement deck. That's the kind of guy he is.

Please say a prayer for Joe's speedy recovery, drop him an email or visit his Facebook page to wish him well.

Sincerely,

Michael
