Tomorrow is Day 30 of 30 on the "American Pie: Book of Love" shoot. It's been a fun ride, and I've had the time of my life.
I feel like I need to concentrate more on YouTube than I have in the past. I've just been so busy with the film that I haven't had time to make a good video. I've posted two interviews with cast members on set (Bug Hall and John Patrick Jordan), but I'm not sure if people are diggin' them. I mean, they're just plain interviews. There's nothing too colorful or fun about them. Not to mention, I feel like some people come to my YouTube channel to be entertained. That's my intent with my channel: to entertain. I don't want to bore people and force them to watch behind-the-scenes interviews on a film that some of them might not want to see. I dunno, I just feel like I'm not being fair. So, I made an amazing new video which I'm going to post in a few days. I'm not gonna say much, but it's definitely one of my favorite videos I've done in a while.
Besides American Pie, I booked a small role in the film "Born To Be A Star," written by and starring Nick Swardson, and co-written by Adam Sandler and Allen Covert. I worked two days on that film in the middle of the American Pie shoot... that made for a busy weekend. I have two more days filming on "Born To Be A Star" in early June, then I'm wrapping that up. I got to meet Nick Swardson, Adam Sandler, and Allen Covert. They were all incredibly nice. Everyone was, really. The whole experience was amazing, and I can't wait to head back to LA and finish that job up. I can't say much else about the movie, other then I think it's going to do amazing in theaters when it's released.
I had another audition recently... can't say too much about it. Just hope that I get it, because if I do... hoo daddy.
What else can I say... I dunno. I feel as if it's pointless to talk about my experiences on American Pie, because the director is going to have a video podcast over the summer with a bunch of behind-the-scenes stuff. I did get to meet Eugene Levy; he put in his two days a few weeks ago. That man is a gentleman, and he's really nice. Also got to meet Tim Matheson; he came in for a cameo. Also nice. Everyone's nice. Why is everyone nice? I thought this was Hollywood...
Alright, I'd better get to sleep. Long day tomorrow.

That is awesome news Brandon, to go from the average college student with ambitions to booking a role in actual hollywood films is ridiculously awesome.
Hell, to even be auditioning for roles in feature films we see in theatres, man I would do some naughty things for those opportunities.
You've actually got me on the reenactment bandwagon too now, I dont have the time to go the traditional route at the moment so why not have a go at the route you took.
Keep it up, good luck on the auditions, and itd be nice to get more detail on your auditioning experiences.
Sounds wonderful.
