Contributing Staff of Boy Genius Productions

Team Genius

"Team Genius" comprises skilled professionals from every area of the production process. Under Paul's supervision, the team creates high-octane productions for the clients, and the clients present them to the public and target audiences worldwide.

Boy Genius Productions enjoys the talents of a skilled cadre of freelance professionals from the film/television, entertainment and marine industries. These aces have proven time and again to be resourceful, industrious, and up to any challenge. Whether watching Paul's back in the jungles and oceans we visit, or composing award-winning musical scores, the company knows that it can depend upon these friends and colleagues, a critical element in the Boy Genius equation.

Here are some of the names and faces involved......

The other musicians include saxman Joe Morales, two-time Grammy winner; drummer Steve Samuel, who plays with Natalie Cole and other renowned artists; keyboard wizard Joe Clark, a former music teacher at the University of Texas; and electrifying bassist Mike Hines, stage and studio musician of the first water.

When a soundtrack requires a more "country" feel, Bill Rowan and the Hi Rollers fill the bill with alacritiy.

Although usually a rock & roller, the drummer is Paul Cater Deaton himself. Capt. Scott Witter, NAUI/PADI Instructor, Expedition Leader.
