born in 1846, Benford in 1946. Standley had a country
rock n' roll band in '67, when he was in
college and riding bulls in rodeos, then landed in Austin
when the Armadillos started the party, and
began to produce concerts, albums and manage
some of the Gonzo characters, then
Willie came to town and life was never the same...he has
worked with most of the outlaw legends, and
boarded the Super informational highway in 94.
Meanwhile back at the ranch...he hooked up
with Haggard and Dylan, Les Paul and Ramblin'
Jack Elliott, Clapton, and the train won't
stop till the fat lady sings to the cows coming home,
or the cows come home to the fat lady
singing. He has 4 children and three granddaughters,
he's a part time single dad in Paso with
two of them, lived here for 3 years, and owns a home,
when he's not on the road with Merle Haggard,
Dylan and Haggard, or on the road shooting
two documentaries he is producing...one year
ago got off the road and now owns a home
here in cowboy wine country, but stills
sometimes does lunch in Hollywood, or meets up with
the outlaws on the road somewhere...

Kylee Jepsen
Associate Producer
When she was just knee high
Kylee knew that she wanted to be in the entertainment
industry. From her first acting gig as a love-stricken heroin, and her first tap
class with
Gregory Hines she wanted to dance her way on to stage. As the years went by and
as her
dance career took off, she began directing dance teams and shows all over
California and
Nevada. After winning some national awards, she decided to take herself one of
them film
classes at the university. Finding a new fascination with film and editing she
wanted to know
all she could. After some hard work she landed herself a job editing
documentaries for an
online newspaper where she won awards for her cutting edge work. She got herself
one of
them degrees in digital media and if that wasn't enough decided she wanted to
learn how
to
create them websites too, and she knows Final Cut Pro...wow. She might be
a newbie
to the business but she sure
knows her stuff, and we're glad she is on the team...


Sara Zotovich
None too many folks can
claim that she was the youngest person EVER to work at the Oscars,
but our Sara can.
While still in high school she got the golden opportunity of walking one Mr.
Clint Eastwood to his seat.
Can that be beat? She also was a Press Page at the Emmy
Awards, and has done
Production Assistant work. She is tough as vinegar and full of nails, set
to graduate early from that
prestigious school of film, Chapman University, where she can folly
with the best of 'em, (word
is Mel Gibson son is at this U). When she's not on the beach show-
ing off her volleyball
skills, or tuning her tenor sax, this world traveler, former New Zealand
resident, is a new yet
significant addition to our PRDFF team, and we are glad to have her.


Sara Mora Ivicevich
Was born and raised in the town that Merle
Haggard now resides, which makes it even more
strange that her and Buffalo Benford met up
in Hollyweird, when he brought her on board to
help him edit a trailer with and for the
Hag. She is pretty and smart and has worked for several
companies in the "biz" as a freelance
editor, director and cinematographer. Sara also worked
with Buffalo Benford on a trailer he was
preparing for a project with the Bob Dylan Camp and
the PioneerTroubadours.com project that's
endorsed by the Eric Clapton Camp...not to drop
names...we just put them right here in front of
you. In 2007, Sara was named President of
Neokast Productions, a company dedicated to producing live
entertainment, independent
features, and interactive digital media for global distribution. Her
role as Pres requires her to
be on the cutting edge of technology, and she will for sure be advising the festival on
the
edge of the cutting edge...oh yes she is working on a
3D movie...
