We the undersigned are asking for reconsideration of Billy Holmquist. This reconsideration being the banning of Billy Holmquist from Netflix properties.

Billy is a Local 480 member and ownes land and lives in New Mexico. His crews are local 480 members that live all over this state. Over the past years alone he has made the call to work to hundreds of local 480 members.Billy has great relationships with local vendors.His coordinating abilities have shown confidence with many productions choosing New Mexico, and Billy Holmquist to meet the tough demands this industry has been through. Further more, Billy Holmquist has kept Local 480 members regularly employed in New Mexico.

What we are asking for is for Billy Holmquist to be able to obtain productions on Netflix properties.

We the undersigned appreciate any consideration this petition has. We look forward to a prosperous future working together.

Sincerely,

The undersigned.

I worked side-by-side with Bill Holmquist for nearly 7 years and he has always done right by the people he hires. His ability to do his job is beyond any other coordinator that I’ve seen both on the ground with Propmakers and in the art department with the folks above the line. He needs us and we need him. Please do the right thing.

I have the privilege to work with Mr Holmquist on several shows, I work with a completely different crew, Steve Brown, but yet when I am out of work Mr. Holmquist always has work for us locals, He has helped our union tremendously keeping fellow union members working, with all respect Mr. Holmquist is a great coordinator

I don't know the nature of the issues between Bill Holmquist and Netflix, but I do want to say that Bill and his Crew are the ONLY Hollywood level crew in the state. To exclude this group from work generated by Netflix Productions would be doing a great disservice to the New Mexico film community as well as Netflix itself.

I have known and worked with Bill here in New Mexico for over a decade. As a member of the Art Department myself, Bill has always shown himself to be a true professional and talented collaborator on ever project I have had the pleasure to work with him on. He should be able to be considered for any film project on any Netflix show!

Billy Holmquist is a very good asset to 480 and have shown professionalism . He has served the local 480 community by helping expand the working talent we now have . With his leadership he can contribute more to the growing needs of the film Industry in New Mexico It would be a shame to loose his services

I have worked with Bill Holmquist for almost 20 years. He and his team set the bar for safe and professional set fabrication.

I've been in the film industry for 32 years, and have worked aside Billy for 25 years. He is one of the safest coordinators I've ever had the privilege of working with. He has built a New Mexico based crew that follow him from show to show, and trust in his abilities and knowledge for keeping people employed, happy and of course safe on the job. To deny he and his crew to continue to work for/with Netflix would have a huge impact on local crew and productions.
