HDTV Digital Box DVD gig---good audition & am on HOLD!!!

......things went pretty well today, was a fun bit, felt very comfortable and relaxed. Was a good atmosphere in the room, seemed like some very warm and sincere cleints...fingers now crossed..

stay tuned...

Auditioning for the Host role of HDTV Digital Box DVD

After purchasing their HD TV, the buyer I presume also receives a DVD with instruction and encouragement to purchase the HD TV Digital Box. That's the role I'll be auditioning for; the host of that DVD.

On less than 24 hours notice, it's about a :60 second sales pitch. Be nice if there was a teleprompter, but we'll see how well I learn these lines between now and 2pm Friday!

Breaking my leg..........check back for an upate soon, the spot shoots Nov 6, thankfully not conflicting with my Movie Shoot "COLD BLOOD" Oct 30-Nov 2.

COLD BLOOD --Audition for Feature Film UPDATE!!!!! YES...Landed role as the Lead Detective, Carlie Cox!

.........this American production is a Movie of the Week and shoots first week of November.

It's based on the true story of the death of Donnah Winger. It's tragic. It's justice served.

I am Detective Cox, lead investigator of the Springfiled Illnois Police Department.

You can learn more with a google search of her name.

Clearly my audition well terrificaly well today and I want to share a short story with you.

This project came to me via a Casting Director without my submitting for the role. I was invited to the auditioning process. Nice! It does help to do good work and stay connected, visible, marketable, professional and courteous, even in the face of a disastrous audition. Worry not, there will be others. My point is this: even though I didn't do well the LAST time I auditoned for this Casting Director (and obviously did not get THAT role, she did "discover" me the time before. I got that original "discovery" gig and it was amazingly successful. So do good work and become memorable. I guess that's my point. I'm just very grateful and at the same time hopeful there will be a next time and time after that and so and so on.

The journey has only just begun. What a ride it is!

Offer rolls in...........nice! That's what I'm talking about

I did project back in the summer for a company who produced an educational/instructional video for a medical device helping people seeking relief from vertigo. It's called The DizzyFix.

Everything seemed to go well, everyone was pleased.

I just received an invitation/offer to participate in a short film by the same producers that is aiming at festival competition.

How flattering is that? Let me tell you...it is VERY!

More news as it develops....
