Rick Reid commented on Susan Cardillo's blog post 1st Projection Design Experience
"I'm taking a jump into projections after many years out of production work. High school level is about right for this amateur gig, both in goals and budget. My main question is how to balance the screen and lighting brightness. How can I know…"

Good Day,

How is everything with you, I picked interest on you after going through your short profile and deemed it necessary to write you immediately. I have something very vital to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on:( mr.frankkwabena@yahoo.com.hk ) for the full details.

Have a nice day

Thanks God bless.

Mr.Frank
