McFadden turned out to be superb preparation for directing my first
feature. A clear system for bringing the words of a script into
visual and dramatic form. Thom’s positive attitude, great common

input really enriched the script. Every line and scene became an
opportunity to do something more exciting, funny, or imaginative.
Invaluable!” |
