Dot Swoof: "Insert Slogan Here"

Cast: Who makes this stuff anyway?

Dot Swoof was created and is maintained by George, Sean, and Bijan.

But they also have a talented cast and crew to back them up.
Without them, they would have to hire people who expect monetary compensation.

PATRICK BEAN
A stand-up comedian and actor, Patrick Bean is just another guy trying to get his name out there so he can tell a funny joke (except he's actually pretty funny). Pat began performing stand-up at the age of 16 and in five years has accomplished a lot. Performing up and down the Garden State, Pat's done shows at Monmouth University, Rowan University, Six Flags Great Adventure, Montclair State University, and Rascal's Comedy Club just to name a few. He is also a Comedy Quarry All-Star and a regular performer in shows such as Stage 4 Comedy and Comedy Catering. Pat has also worked with well known and nationally touring comics such as Mike Marino, Don Jamieson, Jim Florentine, Johnny Watson, and Joey Kola. Pat met George in college in an acting club. He can be found at facebook.com/comedianpatrickbean.

WINKONER
winKoneR is a producer and composer of electronic music currently residing in Prague Czech Republic. After George posted a thread on Newgrounds looking for somebody to do some substitutional composing for Noobesauce back in 2007, winKoneR responded and has since then helped out multiple times with his musical talents. Doing most of his work by himself in the studio, winKoneR experiments with various genres of electronic music, nominally and especially with breakbeat, rap music, trip hop and ambient. He has also collaborated with rock band Fateful Revolution, resulting in the birth of a new music genre called breakrock (a combination of breakbeat and rock). winKoneR is currently composing all the music for Out of Service. He can be found at http://www.reverbnation.com/winkoner.

JOSHUA ORTIZ
Josh is a college student at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. He originally lived in New Jersey like George and Bijan, but moved away in 2004. Josh has acted in several small projects for school and a lot more for himself and his friends. He has been playing drums since he was seven and got his chance to show his skills when he helped start a band that played it's first show at Battle of the Bands about 3 weeks before he moved to NC. The band was called "To Be Determined" and you can check them out at http://tobedeterminedmusic.googlepages.com/yeehaa.html. After George sent out an e-mail to his entire college campus, Josh responded and is now a part of Dot Swoof. Josh currently lends his voice to Out of Service's Pvt. Ronny Hogan and is looking to help with future projects.

SHAYNE AQUINO
Shayne grew up in the island paradise of Manila before moving to New Jersey where she now enjoys acting and writing, among other things. With her major focusing on psychology, most people wouldn't peg Shayne as an aspiring actress. Joining theater clubs in high school and college always seemed like an obvious decision to her however. During her stay at Ocean County College she collaborated with George and Patrick Bean in the studio theater production of "Hellcab". She has acted in several Dot Swoof productions since then, including several Synaptic Kamikaze sketches. Currently, other than spending her time studying for her psychology classes for Rutgers, Shayne works in the human services field and is training to become a Mixed Martial Artist.

JOHN PANNELL
John Pannell is an aspiring voice actor enrolled at UNC Greensboro as a Media Studies student minoring in Theater. He became involved in Dot Swoof when George sent an e-mail out through the Theater department requesting help for Out of Service. Realizing he had nothing better to do with his free time, John volunteered his services as an actor and assistant editor for the project. He and his brother Tucker are also working on the webcomic "Fanatic Gumbo" which John describes as "Bill Hicks meets Penny Arcade." In his free time John plays bass in the Blues-rock band Moscow Rules and is a member of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia.

TOM BABB
Tom got involved with Dot Swoof after responding to a mass e-mail George sent out to everyone on his campus, looking for help with Out of Service and several other projects. After years of playing video games and getting to know people, Tom has gotten his role as a digital puppeteer, or body actor, down to a science; a fact that he is very proud of. As a film major at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, Tom works hard to refine his talents and gain much needed experience. On the other side of the coin, Tom has been known to make quick work of stage direction and to work effectively in all projects. He hopes to one day have his own stories and films for the world to enjoy.

ELLIOT WAGONER
An aspiring actor, George met Elliot in acting class while attending the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Since then he has acted in several sketches for Synaptic Kamikaze and done some minor voice-over work for Out of Service.

Previously on DotSwoof.com....
We've worked with a lot of great talent over the few short years that DotSwoof.com has been around. While a majority of our core staff has been here from the beginning, even going as far back as the Lamp Art Pro days, our cast and crew has forever been changing and evolving. We thank anyone who put their heart and soul into a Dot Swoof project, even if it meant breaking the bank or seeing your pet project hit the cutting room floor, we thank you for your dedication and hard work. The following people went above and beyond anything we ever expected of them, time and time again, and very well may show up in a future video:

Joe La Scola, Daimon Santa Maria, Jennifer Mustachio, Tommy Kraft, Josef Pentz, Rob Elliot, Monique Guz, and our dearly departed friend R-Dawg.
