The public’s response to my recent declaration that “I’m looking beyond
COVID” has been enthusiastic. My decision to do so was made only after
careful consideration of all the facts surrounding the pandemic since it
entered our lives in early 2020. Insurance companies, film industry unions,
and common sense now require film sets to have a full-time COVID compliance
officer on-hand at all times during production. Rest assured, I am prepared.
I’ve been fortunate to have found a woman by the name of MJ Policastro,
who is now officially attached to UVA Films as (a) an Associate Producer,
(b) a Certified COVID Compliance Officer and (c) a trusted collaborator on
my 2021 slate of projects (“Happy Goat,” “CA Shorts,” and “Decade Game.”)
In addition, MJ has asked me to reach out to find a caterer who would consider
collaborating with her as film productions increase (as they surely will) now that an
effective vaccine has been developed and will soon be available. Email me or reach
out to MJ directly on her LinkedIn account.
