In 2000, while shooting Across The Line in the Mojave Desert more than two hours from Los Angeles, David was informed he had booked a commercial for Kansas City Power and Light, shooting in Kansas City at 8:00 A.M. the next day. Things looked impossible, but the producers of the two projects put their heads together and at the end of the shoot day a helicopter landed on set and whisked David off to LAX so he could make his flight. The commercial folks were very happy and the low-budget movie makers got the added bonus of a helicopter shot!.
