Soooo I saw the finished piece that I filmed.
Blah.
I know directors have a “vision” but if the piece doesn’t flow it kind of ruins the entire thing. See, I’m supposed to be kind of happy that the other chick was getting in trouble, so I’m smirking as she’s confessing. Well, he cut that out so when he flashes back to me I’m kinda smiling and look like I’m breaking character–when I’m not! I showed my mom and she said it was kind of disturbing to watch her daughter get abused, and my dad heard that so he refuses to watch it. I guess that’s a good sign?
In a bit of good news I got contacted by a woman looking for a part-time admin/bookkeeper (oh yes, I am a Quickbooks expert) and can work on a flexible schedule. This would mean I could still fit in auditions…so if I had to be gone for an hour or so it wouldn’t be a big deal. And to make up for only having a part time job, I’d work at the gym. In college I worked the 6-midnight shift to fit in school and it worked out fab. It might be kind of hectic to get used to such a schedule, but I need money. Badly. I’m getting head shots done on the first and that’s $150 (ridiculously good price…Shawn Ray is fantastic), and I need to go to the dentist because I believe I have a cavity. Sad face.
I’m going to something called “Agent Fest” the 2nd week of July where Tampa area agents will be, and hopefully I can make some connections and possibly get signed so I can get decent paying roles. That would be super helpful. Even if they’re small parts or low pay, I need a demo reel before I even attempt to audition out in L.A. I wouldn’t even be able to get a decent agent out there if I didn’t have a good demo reel. This is me trying to think ahead…that’s a big step for me.
Lastly, in case everyone didn’t know, ECLIPSE IN TWELVE DAYS! *INSERT FREAK OUT*
