"We're always very happy to work with Billy Crystal, who is not only funny, but also takes his causes very seriously; such as endorsing the Jewish University" saysBob Bekian, owner ofLoyal studios.

The eight-time Oscar host has supported the performing arts department of theJewish University for over a decade, understanding how important it is to keep the flame of artistic freedom alive amongthe students. We were fortunate to have his creative force at Loyal Studios for this project. "Many celebrities use teleprompters and have others write their lines" says Bekian. " But Billy Crystal showed incredible professionalism and delivered his lines expertly to the camera". Its refreshing to see thatlevel of discipline.

Another of his projects was a commercial forIBM and his involvement as host for the 2009 Impact conference in Las Vegas. Once again Billy Crystal delivered his lines flawlessley and even added some improvisation that had the entire crew and studio laughing.
