John O’Shaughnessy
Director of Photography, Camera Operator, Editor, and digital special effects are all the things I love to do in filmmaking. Being involved in documentaries such as this one, or narrative projects, commercials, industrial videos, as well as teaching film and video on the high school and college level, I really enjoy the work.
Fran Cohen Brown
I’ve loved singing and performing all of my life. Self taught musician, I got thrown out of piano lessons in 2nd grade for sight reading. After that all bets were off. I’ve been a singer songwriter since my twenties. If I have something to say, you can bet I’ll be writing a song. I’m honored to be a musical director for this project.
