“Remember it’s a 60 year career…not a 6 year career. Things take a little time.”
Just one of the many gems I’ve heard over the last couple of months while looking for representation. There was one point where I got a little down about the whole situation and then I remembered this quote. I plan [...]
Inspiration.
I was sitting with an acquaintance the other day and we were talking about the movie “Precious.” Actually we were talking about Monique’s performance in Precious. And he launched into this whole speech about how Monique didn’t deserve the Oscar because, “if he could imagine another actress in the role, she didn’t do a good [...]
I’ve been thinking of a way to say what I wanted to say without sounding jaded, cynical or overly sensitive. I’ve come to the conclusion that I’ll just put it out there and fix it later.
When did it become acceptable to be rude and not think before speaking? Let me back up. I rarely talk [...]
When I booked my first big commercial spot, I thought it was like any other acting gig I’d ever done. I’d go in and be myself, present the product like I’d learned in those commercial classes and everything would be great. Right? Nope. One of the things I failed to realize was that it really [...]
Commercials. You know it’s pretty funny, because had you asked me a few years ago about this part of the business, I would have had a completely different answer. Some might even go as far as to say I’ve made a complete “180″ or “sold-out.” But, I think that the stance I had on commercials [...]
It’s a new year and new opportunities. I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting on my last year in the business. Which is funny because I’ve found that reflecting tends to keep you in the past and not in the future. Interesting, eh? One of the things I’ve been trying to figure out is why [...]
I’ve been gone for a minute, but trust me I’ve been wanting to blog. There’s so much that has happened since my last post. And I never got to write what I wanted to about working on the McDonald’s commercial. Which by the way, is running! There’s a long & short version being aired.
But, I’m [...]
Just finished taping my second episode of Private Practice. Pretty nice to be brought back into that world and work with some great actors. Didn’t get to work with Kate Walsh the first time around, but it was cool to do so this time. It’s a great part that got bigger and I don’t think [...]
So, if you’ve been following my tweets and facebook updates then you already know that I’ve been asked back to guest star on private practice. I’m still very very excited about all of it. My first stint on the show wasn’t that big, but I was thankful to have it & to work with such [...]
Can’t believe that August is already here? I have to say that the summer has been flying by. And I haven’t even finished my summer reading & fun. I’m taking new headshots tomorrow and it would appear that I’m a little excited & nervous. Who knew? They’re just headshots, right? Wrong. Out here they truly [...]
