My life as of today has become everything that is QUEEN VICTORIA’S WEDDING! This
short film is the first project that I will have the pleasure of co-producing and co-starring in. I am grateful beyond measure to have this opportunity, and the fact that I get to learn as much as I can about the whole process (in a "hands on" setting) is mind boggling to me. You see, things started several weeks ago, when I had this huge desire come over me to just “do something, do anything.” I could barely wait to get B.J. on the phone the next day to tell her my plan, which really wasn't a plan...:)...Problem was, I had no specifics on what I wanted to do. Short film? Webseries? Storyline? Script? I had nothing. So, B.J. suggested that we work together on a short film that she had already written. I would do a role, and also co-produce. Now, just a few short weeks later, we have a full cast and crew, and have been approved for our locations to shoot. Yesterday we did our first walk through with one of the EP's. Countless professionals (on and off camera) have joined forces with us on this project, and I can’t help but believe we'll have a very positive outcome. *SIGH!* :) So, the plan is to shoot mid June 2009. Press Release coming soon. Please keep us all in your prayers!
In between family, school, looking for a day job, and working on QVW, I have done a few other things as well:
- I'm still seeking a Commercial Rep and Voice-Over Rep here in Los Angeles. I've talked to a few agents, followed up on some referrals, and even had a wonderful conversation with a “celebrity father” who offered to pass my stuff on to some of his connections.
- Happened upon the fact that my LAUP commercials had started running. Remember that night I went to the Tony Rock thing with Kendra? Well, I though I heard the tale end of one of them (the announcer part) as I was getting into my car at 2:00am! Needless to say, I was on the horn bright and early the next morning, following up on few things, if you know what I mean….:)…Turns out I was right. Maybe you’ve heard the spots by now, if not check them out here and here.
- I’ve attended several events. Well, the fist week of April, I TRIED to attend an event. You see, I experienced my first HOLLYWOOD SNUB. Hhhmppphh! I was on the list, got all dressed up, and was then denied entry at the Red Carpet. (Apparently the VIP list had been cut down.) Oh well, you live and you learn right? On 4/11 I attended the 1st Annual She Cares Celebrity Basketball Game in Malibu, CA. Kinda far from home, but it was loads of fun. Lots of celebrities on hand. I walked the Red Carpet, and did an interview. (See a few photos. There are more on MySpace and Facebook.) Not sure of where the interview will pop up. On 4/22 I attended Bonnie Gillespie’s Cricket Feet Showcase. Very, very cool. Very, very organized. (Which I love!) For me, it is such a wonderful thing to be around talented folks and watch them perfect their craft. Red Carpet and free food/drinks don’t hurt either!...:)…On 4/24 I attended my friend Victor Orlando’s CD Concert, where he and his band really brought the funk! It was awesome.
In other news, I’m loving television right now. The favorites are still going strong, and I love the new show IN THE MOTHERHOOD. So funny. I used to watch it as a webseries online.
I’m still getting things together for my Keynote Speaking gig in October.
No auditions as of late, but to tell you the truth, I’m perfectly fine with it, too busy to care right now. That's definitely a first for me!...:)...
