Congratulations to Brandon. He's playing the role of Phil Bliz in the
Nokia 20Lives campaign.
20 Lives, the new online game from Nokia, offers you the
chance to live 20 glamorous lives in 25 days. Each day you will assume
the role of one of the 20 characters which include a record label
owner, a movie director, a radio host, a stuntman, a playboy, a flight
attendant and many more. Each life is connected, so the decision you
make today has consequences on your next life. Log onto
www.nokia.com/20Lives to register now. Game started on September 19,
2005 but I do not believe it is open to US residents. Still, log
onto www.nokia.com/20Lives to see if your living area is
listed on the website.

(03/26/05) :
It’s my understanding that the independent
film "Rave On" written and produced by Hollywood veteran Jay Ingram and
directed by Denny Albee will be due for release on DVD in late
2005. Brandon played a supporting role (as Kayrow) in
the film.
____________________________________
(03/19/05) : A few
online sources seem to suggest that the HBO
film “The Ballad of Bettie Page” has changed its title to
“The Notorious Bettie Page.” Brandon has a supporting role
in the feature film produced by HBO/Killer Films and directed by Mary
Harron. The film also stars Gretchen Mol and Lili Taylor; Fine Line
Features will release the film theatrically later in 2005.
