Raymond Prado has worked as a storyboard artist and second unit director for over two decades on over 50 film and television projects. He has collaborated with directors such as Taylor Hackford, Walter Hill, John Woo, Francis Lawrence, Errol Morris, and currently, Steven Spielberg. With his diverse career, Raymond has been involved in the visual conception for every film genre imaginable. Raymond was Taylor Hackford’s second unit director on the Oscar-nominated “Ray” and most recently, a couple of TV pilots that will never see the light of day. What a business! Raymond has directed everything from opening credit sequences, stunts, and visual effects shots to scenes with lead actors on location and montages featuring lead actors in movies ranging from serious dramas to broad comedies. Raymond studied art history and fine arts at Dartmouth College, where he also played what appeared to be football. When he isn’t making movies, he is running a bakery in the hills of Vermont with his wife, Gesine.  Information above via their homepage.

About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
