Dear friends and fans of Mary Kay,<br><br>(For
those of you who don't know what BOB'S VIDEO is, see
below.)<br><br>A new version of BOB'S VIDEO will premiere at the
BLUE SKY INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL (www.bsiff.com)
in Las Vegas. This new version will feature a new
digital print, new sound design, and a new version of
Mary Kay's cameo.<br><br>In the original version, Mary
Kay's cameo was shot mostly from the back as a sort of
inside joke about her being a voice over star. This
cameo has been painstakingly reconstructed using
alternate footage so we now get to see Mary Kay in all her
glory!<br><br>Dino Andrade, Mary Kay's husband and BOB'S VIDEO
director, will introduce the film, followed by a Q&A. Dino
will also be promoting a new, soon-to-be launched,
mental health outreach program he recently
founded.<br><br>Thanks to the support of the memorial fund in Mary Kay's
name, volunteers have been working daily on THE MARY
KAY BERGMAN MEMORIAL PROJECT.<br><br>Through
literature outreach campaigns, a network of websites and
24hr crisis lines, the goal of THE MARY KAY BERGMAN
MEMORIAL PROJECT is to provide a confidential source for
mental health services and crisis intervention for the
entire entertainment industry, seven days a week, 24hrs
a day! This is a chance to learn all about, and
support, the project before it's official industry-wide
launch, early next year.<br><br>Please join us for the

VIDEO<br>Mary Kay and her husband,
director Dino Andrade, had a dream of forming a production
company inspired by Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball's Desilu
studios.<br>Sadly, the comedy feature film BOB'S VIDEO was the only
project they completed together before Mary Kay's secret
struggle with mental illness took her from us.<br><br>Mary
Kay's cameo in the film as "the Lady in Red" represents
her only on-screen performance - and yet, while that
cameo is all-too-brief, her influence is felt in every
frame of BOB'S VIDEO. Among the many tasks shared by
Mary Kay and Dino: they produced the film with their
own funds, developed the story and handled the
casting, featuring many of the top talents in the voice
over community, including E.G. Daily, Bill Farmer and
Corey Burton.<br><br>Even with her busy voice-over
career, Mary Kay was happy to be on the set every day by
her husband's side handling the still photography,
post ADR sessions, and performing a number of
voice-over roles throughout the film - most notably, an
annoying telephone customer. Mary Kay liked the voice she
created so much that it become the prototype for South
Park's Sheila Broflovski!<br><br>In short, Mary Kay made
BOB'S VIDEO special, not because of her brief
appearance in it, but because she believed in the fi
