Dear Black Box Studio Website Team,
I want to say thank you to everyone that has helped make this website the most amazing site I have ever seen! I feel like I have just given birth. Yikes. Audrey is in convulsions as we speak. (Are you ok?!)
To Bonnie Bandurksi, our photographer:
Words cannot explain how your work has made our site exactly what we envisioned. Better than we envisioned. Thank you for being such a huge part of this. Your photography is amazing, but more than that, you were a visionary from the beginning, and an “actor-whisperer” as we are now calling you. I cannot wait to tell the world about you.
To Kim Seipel:
You set the bar high. Our first design meeting for Black Box was with you. In fact, before it was named Black Box (we won’t mention those other names!) we met with you. The minute I saw our logo my heart leapt out of my chest and I knew it was the one. Is that love at first site? Sorry I am dramatic. I am an actor at heart, what do you expect?
To Amy Morton, Erica Daniels, Adam Belcuore, K.Todd Freeman, Kate Brown, Anne Adams, and Jen Shinn and the rest of Steppenwolf Theatre:
Thank you for your testimonials. Wow. Thank you for driving our passions into OVER-DRIVE with your amazing testimonials. Your support is absolutely the thing that makes us know we are on the right path.
To Kate Brown, Jessie Fisher, Sadie Rogers, Jen Shinn, Max Lesser, John Zinn, Jon Edwards, Millie Langford, Kelly O’Sullivan, Khanisha Foster, Vince Teninty, Lea Coco, Tony Sancho, Penny Slusher, Sadieh Rifai, Rob Belushi, Linsey Page Morton and Anne Adams:
Thank you. Your faces and inner thoughts (and demons) are the reason this site is so beautiful. Our photoshoot day was incredibly special to all of us behind-the-scenes. You brought yourselves to the table and this day will go down as one of my favorite days in my life. And that is exactly why we asked you to be there.
To: Gavin Doughty
Umm…this is on the internet so I have to be uber professional. Thank you for being so good at all that technological stuff. And thank you for listening to Audrey and I babble on and on about the pros and cons of this “word” vs. “that word”. Thank you for being so supportive, and also so good at all the computer work that was outside my world of expertise!
To: Becky Hooper, Nisha and Jeff Bonanno, Lea Coco, and Catherine Wendel,
Thank you for giving your time and being on our Website Input Team. Your input made an incredible difference in our website, and could NOT have been achieved without your individual suggestions and comments. Because of your work we now know that our links work, our descriptions make sense, and that our photos look as amazing as we think they do. Thank you.
Thank you all,
Laura Hooper + Audrey Francis
