It takes a village and then some… maybe a lightning bolt or two, a tornado, a rainbow, and a pot of gold — it’s Filmmaking.

With the crew, everything’s better. Ideas expanded and deepened. Meanings broadened, specified, and highlighted. Forgotten ones remembered and executed. Refinements ironed out, actualized, and cemented. Nothing happens or exists without the crew. Creating fictional worlds to be documented at the highest resolution at this tier takes a monumental type of heavy lifting. We can’t express our gratitude enough, there are no words to truly detail how much effort, and impactful every person , energy , critical eye , decisiveness , sensibility , spirit , and being an absolute RAW UNRELENTING FORCE takes to make any of this work. That's why these are the people we keep working with. Thank you to everyone. Jason and I will do anything to support you, in this industry and out of it. We're lucky to have you — excellent humans, master crafters, genuine artists — and forever grateful to call all of you great friends. Here’s to staying in the good fight — in the impossible industry! 72 shoot days and counting…

I’m a loaded gun, just point me. —Patrick Muldoon

We all need this type of positivity, openness, and willingness to try. Thanks, Pat, for instilling this in our belief system, and most of all for being so patient and kind to all of us. Meeting and working with you on The Corner in 2022 , and a second time on Dirty Hands in 2024 , was seriously a dream come true. When you could’ve eye-rolled, you yelled out, “I’m a loaded gun, just point me.” Thank you — rest in peace. We will always reminisce about all the late nights, infamous one-liners, Post Malone sing-along dance parties, the set’s hype man, and doing what we all love to do. You are the crew’s favorite.

Forever thank you, Pat , Peter , Nathan , Indie , Mayank , Vasyl , Chris , Kayla , Jess , Will , Joe , Atticus , Griffin , Jonathan , Maria , Bryan , Carleen , Paul , Brittney , and Nate. Additionally, thank you to everyone at ATLAS Lighting , Daufenbach Camera , 7th Circle Productions , The Look List Club , Cine Mechanics , Second City Sound , Cine Chase Systems , Chicagoland Trucking , Anvil Entertainment , LUMIN8PRODUCTIONS , MSP Film Society , Chicago Film Society , The Main Cinema , Music Box Theater , DePaul University , and Columbia College. Stephen Wester , Ben Stevenson , and Stephen Wheeler, your continued support means the absolute world to us — we wouldn’t be here taking swings without it. The same goes for Producer Mike De Trana , who hired us on The Corner another opportunity of a lifetime. Sometimes it takes a whole lot of luck, patience, and someone willing to finally believe in the small guys before you can start making waves in this vast, treacherous ocean. Mike, you gave us wind, our momentum — thank you so much. A special, warm-hearted, endless thank you to my mentor, Director of Photography Pete Biagi , who taught me everything about image creation, visual language, and lighting — from the ground up. You all are one of one. Chicago STRONG. Midwest is BEST. Nothing is forgotten, all is remembered, always reminded, forever blessed. Thank you, everyone! Here comes the next pitch — it’s baseball season. Let’s go, Cubs!

For Pat.
