LOTR ACTOR KIRAN SHAH VIDEO ARRIVES

We now have the footage of LORD OF THE RINGS actor/scale double Kiran Shah, filmed by his nephew Kit. Kiran was gracious enough to do a funny introduction for us to precede the film and he also did some amusing bits for our DORKERS documentary. A very special thanks to Kit and Kiran for being a part of our exciting project. Kiran will be appearing next at The Gathering of the Fellowship in Toronto this July and Dragon*Con in Atlanta in September.
