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

I am truly sorry to hear about Joe, he is a great guy and I hope he has a speedy recovery. I tried to send him a message on myspce, but I think he canceled his profile. If you have his e-mail address or any way to contact him please send it to me. - Ed
