Meet the Cast! (Part II)

Donald Holden (Science Officer Paul Wesch): This is Donald's first role since "Spanish Superheroes." Brian saw a genuine knack for excellent comedic timing in his crazy friend, and the two have been working on films together since the beginning – he even helped think of the name "No Budget Productions." His first role was the starring role in "Spatial Geometry," which was highly praised for his various facial expressions and physical comedy. He returned to the film scene a few months later with a supporting role in "The Wasted Years of David Cash," as a friend of the main character. Of his elaborate costume, he said, "I look very right-wing!"

His next role was the long-time collaboration with Brian in the "1-800 Collect Commerical," in which he starred as the crazed man making sure that you dial collect. He once again took part as a crazy man with his part as the annoying movie-goer in Brian's "Movie Theater PSA," of which he and Michael Sohn won "Best Acting" for. He terrorized Brian's brother Daniel in the "Horror Movie," as the knife-weilding, hooded killer. He also starred in Michael Sohn's "Hunger," in which he played a man on the run to a Stop & Shop to buy groceries. He returned under the helm of Brian to once again star in "Music Legends: Jarred Blunderstone," finally bringing a long-used character into the spotlight – to hilarious results! His ability to improv all dialogue as well as a song number for nearly 20 minutes has proven his talent beyond anything, and as a result has been suggested to that he seek out some form of acting in college, so far of which he has not. He returned for one more role near the summer – a small but hilarious role in "Spanish Superheroes," in which he played Donaldo, the suspect in a missing toilet case.

That summer, Donald proved he could do much more than act. He brought out into the open to Brian a near-finished script for "Evan Friday." With some help from Brian, the script was finished and shooting began. When Brian and Donald worked together, acting and directing each other, things went smoothly. Unfortunately, other cast members who were unwilling to do the job have left this project unfinished. The footage still remains on Brian's computer. This summer Donald makes his long-awaited return as Paul Wesch, a serious but naive memeber of Captain Mortensen's team. The role will make use of Donald's brian and always perfect comedic timing. Donald has receieved praise from everyone for his work. "He's an absolute genius in everything he's done. He's so easy to work with and seems to know exactly what you want. He makes filming easy and I'm absolutely delighted to be working with him again this summer," said his friend and director Brian Schwartz.
