"The Emerald Diamond" - Crew Bios
John Fitzgerald - Producer/Director/Editor
"The Emerald Diamond" is John's first feature film.
John's filmmaking style is largely influenced by Johnny Ramone, Axl Rose, Howard
Hughes and Howard the Duck. In other words, he's slightly talented yet militant,
a bit off the wall yet reclusive and has one bill ($1).
John recently formed
EMERALD DIAMOND USA - a charity dedicated to raising funds for the continued development of baseball programs in Ireland. For more information, visit

Bill "The Captain" Winters - Director of
Photography
Bill is known as 'The Captain' because of his smooth
moves on the dancefloor. That, and he drives a pirate ship.

Lorraine "Photoshopper" Robinson - Visual
Effects Supervisor
If you need to digitally insert yourself into photos
you were never in, the "Photoshopper" is the one to call. You also need to call
a psychiatrist and possibly a lawyer.
Anthony Packes - Music Supervisor
For a jazz guitarist and master of rock/funk music,
taking on a project loaded with Irish music wasn't something you'd expect
Anthony Packes to do. But he did it, thus proving you don't quite understand him
yet. Keep trying.
Mostly Liquid Productions
Jim Roberts - Audio Mixer
If you watch the movie and say, "Damn, that guitar
level really pops up a couple of dB's at just the right time," then you're
talking about what Jim does. If you don't know what that means, take solace in
the fact that Jim is a helluva guy.
Brandon Productions
Brian McArtin - Assistant Music Supervisor
Sullivan's Jack guitarist and all around good guy.
There will be more here once Brian tells me what to write.

Sean McCarthy - Narrator
He sounds like Barry White, except he IS white. And
Irish.

Patrick Barron - Cameraman
Pat shot some of the County Cork youth footage and also
parts of the Cuban and Dublin League segments. If you're looking for a good
Dublin-based cameraman, he's your man. Three cheers for Pat Barron!
Justin Bergen - Continuity Consultant
Justin is responsible for making sure things run
smoothly.
