The trailer to 'A Promise of Time Travel' directed by Craig Jessen.
I was getting ready to discover something really important during this scene. Good time on set today!
Thought I was ending the year with just a new iMDB credit, nope, on my way to set for 'On the case with Paula Zahn'. ^_^ Good things, good things.
Web series audition earlier today. I kind of looked like a nut as I rode my bike in. Had to run to the restroom and change clothes then comb my hair, the hair game was not strong today :-(
Still had an audition and felt good afterwards! ^_^
Also saw 'Maleficent' in the AM, should've definitely seen it in theaters as I really enjoyed it! Check it out if you get a chance.
Productive day
Filmed an Audition video where I got to use an accent for a casting director I have worked with in the past. Wrote an outline for a film that's been on my mind for some time. Reached out to a photographer friend on behalf of an actress I know. Confirmed an Audition for Saturday in midtown. I felt super productive today regarding my career and wow does it feel good!
#pmjtour #scottbradlee #postmodernjukebox I decided to start this out with a hash tag as its a long post, too long for Twitter where more people will see it then my tumblr, so I needed to guide people here.
I bought tickets to see Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox on May 6th at the Best Buy Theatre in NYC. The show was AMAZING!
Everything about that show told me to keep pushing as an artist. I am coming up on my 15th of pursuing a professional acting career. A career that took me from NYC to Hollywood and back to NYC again. I have met with great success as well as great failure. Booking a role opposite Harvey Keitel (then falling through) to doing terrible student films. A career that has had more ups and downs than I want to admit. A career that in the last two years I have genuinely questioned if I should continue pursuing or just jump into a normal 9-5 like the rest of the world.
Lately and by that I mean about the last year and a half I have absolutely been consumed with working at my job. I work at Hugh Jackman’s Coffee shop in NYC and I wont lie, initially I thought I could turn that into something for my acting career, maybe Hugh could help me on my acting journey by talking to someone, after all his word carries weight, right?
I deluded myself.
I sulked and advanced and advanced in the coffee shop, I’m now one of the senior people there, I have a bunch of responsibilities, I have a real 9-5(more like 6:30AM-4:30PM) job. I dislike it. I’m not doing what I want to be doing. I want to be acting, I’m good, good enough to get hired, good enough to do a great job, hell good enough to get cast opposite a great fucking actor in Harvey Keitel.
Recently(a couple months ago) I started to rediscover a love and a WANT to research when it came down to my pursuit of acting. My spark has been reignited in a beautiful and welcomed way these last few months.
Enter Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox show. I have been watching his YouTube channel for a while now and I freaking love what they do. During the concert while the singers sang, while the musicians played and finally when Scott spoke to the crowd he made me realize again that I can do this. He spoke about how it was just him in his basement apartment with talented people and how they could make something of it. He made me realize, I am way to busy helping Hugh and his partners achieve their dreams while NOT making any time for my own…
Seeing that show, for me was a nail in the coffin, I set out on a fucked up journey years ago, a journey that took me around the USA, that taught me how to drive, that made me drive 3 hours out of my way just for an audition, a journey that has a hundred more crazy stories, a journey, my journey.
Thank you Scott Bradlee, I forgot what I was doing, I forgot where I was going but your show was the little push over the edge so I could wake up. You and the band have ABSOLUTELY inspired me to get back to work(acting), to not focus on the 9-5 and to focus on my dream.
Thank you.
