THE CREW
Mitch is the founder of Riverman Productions and writer/director of The Duke of Marylebone. He has a colossal love for people and an insatiable passion for portraying the story of life as he sees it. He also feels a duty, nay an obligation, to pay tribute to the great satirical comedians like Milton Berle, Don Rickles, Woody Allen, Mel Brooks, and Rodney Dangerfield. He hopes immensely to keep the comedy genre alive. Mitch would like to ensure that the coming generations won’t forget the work and influence of these powerhouses in the entertainment industry.

TIM WOOD
Tim, director of lights and camera, shares the same passion for film as his brother, Ivan. They often work together, forming the Wood Brothers team, a duo that, besides enjoying working with each other, cleverly shows the benefit of having two pairs of eyes on the screen. The same cinematographer taught the brothers, and they usually find no problem synergizing together on set.
Martina, the production designer for the film, is an Italian production designer. She began her career as a set designer and prop maker, taking on major film projects even before graduating in Film Practice at the London College of Communication. Martina confirms the reputation of her Italian heritage when it comes to artistic activities and visions. She provides any project with that noble look that makes it fly off the screen.
Nikolai, editor, holds a master’s degree in Fiction Film Production from the University of Salford. But that’s not all. Nikolai also holds a bachelor’s degree in the History of Ideas from the University of Oslo. His bachelor’s degree covered classical literature, scientific history, philosophy, stone age shamanism, penal history, the prison system, and the witch trials. If the film industry doesn’t attract brilliant people, I don’t know what does! Nikolai humbly states that, during the summer, he spends his spare time playing amateur football. In the winter, dogged 68-year-olds with perfect technique race past Nikolai during cross country skiing.
