Name Involvement
Damon Dark was the first television to feature Niobe Dean. Although famous on the Internet for her starring role in Broken Allegiance, the actress later became a professional within the industry, most famously appearing as Sally Kirk in Neighbours. Niobe Dean is a cult figure with science fiction fans who know of her films due to her onscreen sex appeal. Another Neighbours luminary to appear was Andrew Dunn, an actor who had also appeared in the movie Chopper. Both appeared in the Damon Dark serial "Maddox", Andrew Dunn taking on the role of Simon Maddox, the main villain.
A third actor with professional credits was Chris Heaven, who expanded his cameo into his own spin-off series.
Although Adrian Sherlock directed two of the original three stories himself, the second, "Maddox", was directed by Karl Siemon, who has since gone on to become a professional cinematographer with five movies to his credit including Radio Samurai, The Razor Eaters and Hotel Motel.
Cult American actorEd Bishop was also due to be involved with the series during its early inception, as detailed further in "Unmade Episodes".
Adrian Sherlock himself has been a professional in the acting business for many years, appearing uncredited in ABC TV's award-winning Boy Soldiers (1990) and his own stage show Naked in the Fernery in 2007. He's also appeared in uncredited featured roles in TV commercials and a short-lived ABC TV legal drama called Inside Running (1989) where he played the Clerk of the Court. Adrian has also had a long association with local theatre in his home town of Geelong, notably with Geelong Repertory and its Woodbin Theatre, appearing in many plays, including his own original productions such as Naked in the Fernery.

Famous quotes containing the word involvement:
“Not only do our wives need support, but our children need our deep involvement in their lives. If this period [the early years] of primitive needs and primitive caretaking passes without us, it is lost forever. We can be involved in other ways, but never again on this profoundly intimate level.”
—Augustus Y. Napier (20th century)
“In the planning and designing of new communities, housing projects, and urban renewal, the planners both public and private, need to give explicit consideration to the kind of world that is being created for the children who will be growing up in these settings. Particular attention should be given to the opportunities which the environment presents or precludes for involvement of children with persons both older and younger than themselves.”
—Urie Bronfenbrenner (b. 1917)
