CommentThanks for the "add" onto your network here on Nextcat.

This site really has some potential. I appreciate your checking me out. I hope you were able to visit my web-PORTFOLIO-site @ www.rogerambrose.com. It gives a better view into what I have done as a Production Designer / Art Director.

Feel free to pass on my info to whomever you feel is appropriate and I'll do the same. It's not just "Who You Know" but..."Who Knows You" that matters in this industry, hence our connection here might serve both of us very well.

I hope our paths cross on a future job...one can only hope.

Best of Luck
