I "crushed" an audition last night for an AFI student film project. An emotional scene audition that included tears of sorrow.  Made the girl reading with me cry.  Even the director said, "Whoa. That was deep," lol. Would love the role, but if it doesn't come to be, I'm still very proud of myself for what I was able to accomplish.

Hoorah!  Booked another gig!  This time, a commercial print project 1st week in February for a photographer that's doing a coffee table book.  The story of the book will be about a 1920's couple about to be married when they're rudely interrupted by a robot and it's gang of goons.  Ha!  All photos in black and white and the photographer is amazing.  Just got a follow-up call and I've been promoted; going from one of the goons to the actual groom!  Which basically means, instead of one day of shooting, now I'm booked for three!

Wow.  Some nice comments from the Casting Director of the feature I auditioned for:  * Rich A. (Casting Director) An impressive different take of the character, did not use a more obvious path in this role, and brought another dimension to the character. Good timing, very good take.
