Hey, Dalton - As an entrepreneur, what you're saying is music to my ears! That kind of licensing deal = serious $$$. Thanks for checking out our work this week.

Good job. Personally found the sounds mix uneven at times with the music too loud. I like the imagery and the basis in reality. Look forward to seeing more of this.

Thanks for the feedback June. I had the sound equalized (I thought) but with YouTube compression it came out wonky. After it's uploaded we don't have a chance to re-upload. Sorry!!

I like the interview comments -- and am amazed that Steve Adams found his own neighbour charged with quadruple murder -- and that a boy he had babysat became a serial killer!
