The Folks Behind The Fall of America and The Western World

The Chief Operating Officer at The Entertainment Career Connection, Inc., Brian Kraft is also a film mentor at the said establishment. Same as most business figures, he had a humble beginning, starting as a driver to underground filmmaker Julian Temple ("Earth Girl's Are Easy" and "The Future is Unwritten") where he met music director D.J. Webster (Amy Grant, The Beach Boys). Kraft's success today could be credited to Webster, who taught the former on the art of directing and producing. Kraft went on to direct live concerts for Jane's addiction, Cypress Hill and Ozomatli even after Webster passed away. One of Kraft's greatest works are "The Brandon Corey Storeyand The Fall of America and the Western World, the latter being his third documentary film.

Above anything else, Kraft is a free man - not a liberal, conservative or even a moderate one. He is a United States citizen, a student of the U.S. Constitution, and an aficionado of the opinions expressed in the following books: "Revolution" by Ron Paul, "Ishmael" by Daniel Quinn, and "The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle. He is one great fan of founding father Thomas Jefferson and is a student of U.S. History. Baseball, basketball and interestingly enough, a good barbeque, are among his passions. Currently, he is working on getting his PHD in Psychology.

The CEO of The Entertainment Career Connection, Inc., producer James Petulla is also the founder of this firm. His feature film "Reversal" garnered the award for best film at Robert DeNiro's IndieVision Tribeca Film Festival as well as "Best Film" at the Malibu Film Festival. It also gained a DOVE Family Award. Set around the sport of high school wrestling, the movie is a family film that highlights the value of a father-son or mentor-apprentice relationship when it comes to sports. The film was praised and commended by gold medalists Carl Lewis, Shannon Miller, and Kendall Cross. James Petulla lives in California with his two sons and dogs, Fred and Beatty.

The success of The Fall of America and the Western World can be traced to the following: working knowledge on the entertainment business and associations with the greatest minds in the fields of writing, economics, and journalists.

"The Entertainment Connection programs are amazing. From day one, they put you in a real film company, radio station or recording studio where you are tutored privately in a structured curriculum by a working professional in that company. In the statement of DiNozzi, there will be "no more teachers, oversized classrooms or tuition debt."
