David Jackson Willis
Stand up comedian Willis has performed all over the damned place. He even went on Star Search, won with four stars, then lost next time - becoming the first comedian to ever lose to a Spokesmodel. This humiliating experience prepared him for the world of writing ("Caroline in the City" and "Cybill"), and his own successful short film "The Disappearing Girl Trick", which he wrote and directed.

Liam Finn
Liam Finn has been making films since Tuesday. With aspirations of making the Great American Movie Trailer, Finn attributes his recent spate of filmmaking to the Group 101 "no excuse" philosophy, "Get off your ass." He had been sitting on his ass for years. Group 101 made him stand up and ever since, it has been his drug of choice. Now, without a fix every thirty days, he's just another wannabe sitting on his ass. [email]
Ralph Greco
Ralph maintains his sanity in Hollywood by living by the infamous Corleone mantra: "Michael,this is the business we've chosen..." During non-waking hours he's a writer who has worked for the likes of David E.Kelley, James Cameron, Richard Donner, and a host of other, similarly obscure producers. [email]
Anthony Dalesandro When not directing feature films like Escape to Grizzly Mountain (a wilderness adventure to be released by MGM in 2002) or Pirates Moon (a futuristic thriller to begin shooting in February 2002 (in India of all places!)) this award winning filmmaker (5 commercial Tellys 1 Saturn, misc. festival awards) annoys his friends (Chris and Tony mostly) and disturbs his neighbors (who think hes shooting a porn) by borrowing their houses, cars, power tools and children in his latest Group 101 opus (didnt he JUST finish the last one?).

Erich Wilhelm Zander
Erich Wilhelm Zander is one of those pretentious three name people. No, really! If you have spoken with Erich for any length of time you have no doubt heard him speak fondly of his daughter, Beatrix Ana Wilhelmina 50centHAT Zander. She and her mother, (his wife, and all-over-the-house lover,) truly rescued him from a state solipsistic curmudgeonliness. Although not a writer, he is a cruel grammarian, wicked sound editor, and when put upon by the magnificent six to actually work with actors, a promising director. From the great state of Chicago, this career photographer decided he was "going to California, when the levee breaks," and become a film editor. The unabashed food snob, (you should taste his craft services,) has recently edited an award-winning short from a USC grad that has made the festival circuit, and cut a Blazer commercial for GM China. He calms to the sound an LP makes when the needle circles the infinite groove, and still has his first record, (other than the Bear Went Over the Mountain,) The Beatles' Something/Come Together. And while he is not supposed to be a comedian, as Willis is, he still thinks it's funny to mention, "The Disappearing Girl Trick," on the off chance David might forget to do it. He may not have the credits of a Greco, Dalesandro or Ullrich, or the coiffure of a Finn...but at least he got off his ass! You may contact him through his electronic portal www.50centHAT.com.
