praise from Filmmakers like you

"Chris's comments on my film were spot on and complete, his suggestions not only make perfect sense, but are, just as importantly, do-able. What I needed most at this point was an informed and objective viewpoint, and I got it. And on top of objective, Chris managed to be most encouraging, too."
