First Reaper Crew Report for 2017 . Models, trinkets, and stuck up agencies.

Before I get off on my rant here this morning, I want to say to the sweethearts on the two Cinderella movies I watched on Disney, great job. One was a tweaked remake of the film she's all That, starring Fred Prinz Junior , but good, plus the two movies gave me inspiration to relive some preasure so again thanks. 
Tried to get in touch with the local Bishop to gain a sit down, but did not hear back. I think I'm on my own, on this one. Let you know this evening. 
Our Sweet Texas Sister shot a shell across the bow last night, saying that the expenses being run up for the pillows and such were cutting into her purse a bit with few if any sales. I'll tell ya'll like I tell her, help us to raise funds for a new computer and all for the Radio/TV station, that way I can get the pillows on screen and get to selling them. Plus with a new computer the radio gig can get flowing again. Again making money for us and our Texas Sister.
Which brings me to this; and there's an entire background story to it which I'll relate later today, but; once upon a time, in doing some pinup work for the Knytes, I stumbled upon this once free website for finding model talent. Well seems this other outfit called Casting Call Pro.com bought the free site Mandy.com . So since they had been prodding me to use their services, I put up a simple casting for a narrator for the movie the Hazzard Knytes. The docudrama, that will tell the story of the Knytes(knights) plus HazzardAyre Radio etc in a similar style of the way Stern told his story to increase ear traffic to his show. Figuring if we got someone there for the Narrator, then other castings for both men and women that would make up the Club, in our preteen and teen years, as well as our radical 20's both in and out of the Marines. Then drawing it up tight to the present with what's going on with HazzardAyre; Radio(www.livestream.com/hazzardayre) . The fact that most of us are not film makers, we're truckers,bikers,mechanics and aircraft pilots and mechanics. However nobody is better to tell our story than us. Now so I got a response from some gal named Kat, who was all kinds of prying, hell it felt like the Spanish Inquisition. The main whammy was why do you need em single. Simple, with the running around the Mountain West and all, no kids and running the highway of life solo, is better than having her trying to juggle kids, a hubby, and still being on time for a scene, or segment of the film, and more importantly bein on time for the plane. The idea is to capture everywhere and anywhere there is a current charter or sub-charter of the club, especially where the club was founded. Then there was the question, of examples of prior work, I'd be happy to provide except one mini problem, much of my reels are still on VHS Tape not DVD. So until I get for the Club a new computer with the software to transfer that video on DVD, no can show old stuff. However, when it comes to this kind of thing, I remember Vickie at Talent Management Group in Salt Lake City. Just before we set up camp in Woods Cross, while I was residing in Ogden Utah, I went down for a meet and greet at her office. Must have been 30 ladies there. The one I chose as a lead was a gal, named Michele Wilson. Who has a package that any man would wet his pants over. Total fee for Michele was 43k or so, Rick our President said no, but I look back and think, I should have ponied up my own money and hired her. She was the only one that wore the nylon leggings that I asked for, the kind of skirt I asked for, and gained a Confederate accent as I had asked. With that in mind guess who I'm calling this week? Thing is When I looked over the talent from Casting Pro, I didn't see any female talent between 35 and 60, from anywhere near here that could pop in for a meet and greet or a script read. If your question now is why did I go messing with Casting Pro? Simple they contacted me first, invited me to place a free ad on their site, which I did just to see if Casting Pro, was as good as Mandy.com which so far as I can tell , ain't.
