Back In The Swing Of Things

So I'm back in L.A., and ready for work.

Already, I have an appointment tomorrow for a table read. For those of you who don't know, a table read is when you sit in a room with a whole cast (all being considered for the roles they read), the director, the writer(s), and the producer(s), and the entire script is read through in one sitting while everyone reads their roles. I'm scheduled to be there for three hours. It sound daunting, but I'm looking forward to it. It's my first table read, so it's bound to be a cool experience, one way or the other.

What could come of this? Well, if the project I'm reading for gets greenlit for pre-production, then the director already has me in mind for the part that I read for. It's kind of like an audition, only better.

Other than that, I have my acting class that I'm attending every Thursday.

I shipped my tripod to myself, so once that arrives, I can start making more videos. I plan to really make a lot more now that I have a lot of free time AND a good place to film. It also helps that if I pick up the pace with my videos, I'll earn enough revenue to pay the rent, so I can save some money. I'm being very frugal lately, just learning how to balance my budget and everything.

Other than that, not much is going on. I brought my XBox 360 back with me from Baltimore, so I've been playing a lot of Oblivion recently. I'm extremely nerdy, yes. I'm a recluse, yes. But it passes the time.

That's it for this post.

Booyah.

Vacation Almost Over

So after I finished my work on Born To Be A Star, I took a flight back home to the east coast and have been visiting family and friends for a couple weeks. Hollywood is apparently pretty slow in June, so I've only had one audition that I put on tape. It's a project called Unstoppable, starring Chris Pine (Kirk) and Denzel Washington. It was an interesting part... I had to look older, so I grew somewhat of a beard. I think I'm going to continue to grow it just in case I need to look older again.

Other than that, I've recently had an idea that I'd like to turn into a script. I've got a writing partner, and we're gonna start brainstorming as soon as I get back. I really think it could turn out to be a great movie. No details right now. Maybe later once we get a lot of it done.

More as it develops. Sorry this blog is so boring, gang (and by gang, I mean the loyal 10-12 people reading it. You know who you are ;-) ). I'll try and spice it up with pictures and stuff. Like a real blog. I dunno. I'll do something.

Peace.
