Special thanks to the J scene team!

Wow, as I mentioned after the shoot, I really felt like I was Meryl herself after the incredible treatment I received before, during and after shooting the J scene. If it weren't for every single person I'm about to list, the scene could not have turned out half as good as it did. As a side note, every time I do one of these scenes I'm highly critical of my own performance and feel I could have done much better. I usually say that I'm not sure and we'll see, all while having a pit in my stomach when it's being posted. With that said, I'm very excited about the J scene. I'm not sure if its the beautiful way its shot, the soundtrack, the wonderful onscreen talent playing opposite me or just that I don't hate my own acting but I really have a fondness for it. Enough about my feelings, let's talk thanks. There's so much to say! By the way, when I hired Jennifer Enskat I had no idea I would get the long list of people you'll see below her name but she and Andrew had everything to do with nearly everyone listed here.
