The amazing Ruby Sketchley

I just wanted to take some time to recognize an unsung hero in Sacramento, CA. Ruby Sketchley is an incredible actress who never stops working. It is only a matter of time until she becomes wickedly famous for her skills. She did some Voice Over work for UNBROKEN recently, and I must say her ability to take direction and deliver was second to none. You can hear her voice in our trailer as she sets the tone with, "There's been an accident" Ruby is also very active in the Filmmaking community. She is a board member of the Capitol Film Arts Alliance and does an incredible job with the script reading circles they provide. To learn more about Ruby, visit the links here, or go to her IMDB listing.

Does AdSense make cents?

Recently I added Google AdSense to my Youtube Video UNBROKEN in a effort to help monetize the video. Since the beginning of this month I have made $3.11. I guess that's not bad seeing as the ads have only been clicked 7 times. I was hoping use the pay-per-click money to help pay for production costs of the movie. Does anyone have suggestions on how to improve pay-per-click earnings without harassing family & friends to click on the ads after watching the video? Being an Indie I have to squeeze out every penny I can to realize this beautiful movie. Thanks for any suggestions!

Please help Haiti

You can text "HAITI" to "90999" and a donation of $10 will be given automatically to the Red Cross to help with relief efforts, charged to your cell phone bill. Or you can go online to organizations like the Red Cross and Mercy Corps to make a contribution to the disaster relief efforts. Cow Town Film Productions has done so as well as the executive board members. Clinton has put out a statement that this is the best way to help immediately. Will you please join the humanitarian effort? These people desperately need our help.
