Dedicated Works Productions

Today, in between the normal 7:00 to 3:30 day job, I've caught moments to think about the production company that I've recently formed with my brother, Scot, and acting colleague, Gene.

In 2008 Gene wrote a screenplay entitled "Ruth's Locket"... a poignant story about a woman suffering from the ravages of Alzheimer's disease. Though she was robbed of her memory, the feelings that she still has about her first young, true love still linger... they linger strong enough to break through the disease that is crippling her.

When I met Gene in 2010 during a production of "Grease," he introduced me to his screenplay and I knew I wanted to be involved. Having just lost my father to illness the year prior and seeing him being admitted to nursing homes and hospitals, one right after the other made me aware of everyone else that I came in contact with... people like Ruth. I was so moved after reading the script that I had to be part of the process. Once I became involved, as a Producer, I enlisted the help of my brother, Scot, who is a web designer and videographer. We needed a website to promote "Ruth's Locket"! After the three of us began to work together, and work together well, we knew we were on to something and wanted to continue down this path. That's when we formed Dedicated Works Productions.... we are each dedicated to our crafts, dedicated to one another and dedicated to producing quality work.

We have on board for this film many, many talented and quality professional cast and crew, including our Director of Photography, Layton Blaylock. For more information about our project, the cast, the crew and to donate to see this project to fruition, please visit our web site at http://www.ruths-locket.com/.

Thanks... and stay tuned!
