TRAVIS BOLES
Chairman Emeritus
Travis has been making short films since he
was 10 years old. He took over the VHS camera
his father had bought and made his then-five-year-old
brother Tyler star in his early work in the
backyard, usually portraying Bat-Kid or some
sort of wandering swordsman type. He was also
a child actor, and was the voice of Schroeder
in "It's Spring Training, Charlie Brown!",
by far one of the worst of the classic Melendez
PEANUTS films. At the age of fifteen his family
moved him from Los Angeles to Tyler, Texas,
and to fight off the boredom and fire ants,
he began to make new films with some other
kids at Chapel Hill High School, and it would
be these same kids who would become the backbone
of Fanboys Productions. Ten years and over
a dozen short films later, they are in production
on one of the most anticipated films on the
internet, the sequel to THREE IN THE AFTERNOON,
a film released in 2004.
Shortly after THREE'S release, Ryan Wieber
of Ryan Vs. Dorkman fame volunteered to redo
Trav's shoddy lightsaber FX for an online
contest. The rest is history, as two years
later Travis traveled to Atlanta to film Ryan
Vs. Dorkman 2, and the two camps are now great
friends. THREE IN THE AFTERNOON, in its two
years on the internet has now garnered fans
from all over the world including Finland,
Chile, Brazil and the UK, has two US film
festival wins including Best Short Comedy
at the 2006 Wizard World Texas Film Festival,
and has over 300,000 YouTube views.
He enjoys fresh-squeezed lemonade, soft pants
and making movies. He does not enjoy writing
about himself in the third person, however.
His next film, SIX IN THE MORNING, is coming
out soon. He currently resides in Austin,
Texas. travis@fanboysproductions.com

ERIN IRVIN
The Dublin Hammer
Much more than just eye candy, Erin Irvin
has been an important part of Fnaboys Productions
since 2003 when she was the only person who
showed up at auditions for a zombie film for
the 2004 Tyler Film Festival. She was promptly
cast and eaten. She has since appeared in
every production, including THREE IN THE AFTERNOON
as the hot-headed girl in red who leads an
assault on our three heroes. Erin is currently
a theater major at the University of North
Texas in Denton, and is in love with the films
of Hayao Miyazaki and the music of the band
Eisley, which she would like to add has a
new album coming out soon.

JONATHAN PRUITT
The Right Hand Of Doom
Jonathan Pruitt, through his performance in
THREE IN THE AFTERNOON has ignited the internet
with his rapier wit and over-the-top stunt
work. A 1st Degree Black Belt and martial
arts instructor, "Pruitt" (as he
is known to his closest friends) coreographed
all the fight scenes for THREE and its upcoming
sequel SIX IN THE MORNING, in addition to
being its comic-relief star. Pruitt first
became involved with Fanboys Productions with
its second film, BOTH WAYS, and has since
gone on to star in nearly every production
since then, and has the unique distinction
of racking up more kills on screen than any
other Fanboys cast member (he's up to, like,
9, but theres probably more if you count all
the zombies). In addition to being a murderer
he is a cameraman, pharmacy technician and
basically does a little bit of everything
else. He currently resides in Austin, Texas.

COREY GRAY
Producer Extraordinarre
Corey has been with Fanboys Productions
since the very beginning, and has been in
love with movies his whole life. A true geek
(albeit a handsome one), Corey has been involved
in many different film projects over the years,
and is a graduate of the Radio/Television/Film
Program at the University of Texas in Austin.
He is a producer, actor, cameraman and skilled
editor and in 2005 shot and cut the DVXuser.com
Zombie Film Festival finalist, ROTTEN BASTARDS.
He received a great reception on the internet
for his performance in THREE IN THE AFTERNOON
as the one guy most likely to do something
bad with his new lightsaber (because, hey,
who wouldn't?). He currently resides in Los
Angeles.
