Robot talent agency

Droid's Love Casting Agency is your full service booking agency. They are Proud to represent the most requested automatons, androids, and robots on the market. There you can always get a robot that fits your production and your budget. From bachelor parties to the biggest Hollywood productions, Droid's Love Casting Agency is your best partner to cast robots.

Apparently it is no longer adequate to create a a clever advertising campaign. Now, you must include a back story. You may have seen Unilever's commercials for their Sure, Degree, or Rexona brands of antiperspirants (the brand names vary depending on which part of the world they are being marketed) that feature a robot and the slogan "future ready protection." You might wonder how the robot was chosen for the part. Well, it was discovered in a casting call by Droid's Love Casting Agency. Here are some of the screen tests and the finished commercials. Visit the website to see more of the robot talent available for hire.

Coquina Wildflowers

Loblolly Bay trees are in bloom now. There are a few of them in Coquina Crossing -you may have one behind your house. They can be easily identified by their large white flowers. They prefer swampy areas and have a reputation for being somewhat difficult to cultivate. You can also see many of these trees along S.R. 207. The Loblolly Bay (Gordonia lasianthus) is related to camellia and tea. I have been told, but do not know if it is true, that the community of Bay Meadows was so named because of the Loblolly Bay trees growing in the area.

Jo Jones

Born Jonathan David Samuel Jones in Chicago, Illinois, he moved to Alabama where he learned to play several instruments, including saxophone, piano, and drums. He worked as a drummer and tap-dancer at carnival shows until joining Walter Page's band, the Blue Devils in Oklahoma City in the late 1920s. He recorded with trumpeter Lloyd Hunter's Serenaders in 1931, and later joined pianist Count Basie's band in 1933. He had an incalculable influence on major drummers such as Buddy Rich, Kenny Clarke, Roy Haynes, Max Roach, and Louie Bellson.  link
