If you are a movie producer, director, actor/actress, investor, or crew member, you need to have high-quality still photographs as part of your promotion and fundraising strategy. Check out Curtis Clegg – I worked with him on A Chance in Hell and The Sad Cafe. He was incredible. I have included the picture he took of me as a Youth Nazi. You can also check out his website by clicking on the link below.
