That's a Wrap

I just wrapped up my part on Halos and Rainbows. :) It was a really fun shoot and I'm glad I did it. I hope that it all turns out well, but I know I did a pretty good job regardless. Heh. I can't wait to see it!

The Weekend

I haven't been able to write the last couple days because I've been so busy! On Saturday I was at the Halos and Rainbows shoot for ten hours and didn't get home until 4:30am. It was a long night, but I had a lot of fun when I was actually working. The other actors are good people and I'm excited to see how they did on film.

I got this great scene where I get to interrupt the main characters by knocking over loads of beer, wine, and liquor bottles. It was awesome, but after several takes my sleeves were pretty soaked. Anyway, I had a good time and I go back for more filming tonight. I'm really anxious and excited to see how they cut the footage together, I hope it turns out as well as I know it can! Trust me, as soon as I'm able to I'll either link to or host some or all of the film here.

On Sunday I went to an audition for a college comedy and read for two of the lead female roles. They offered me the role of Vici, who in my opinion is the more interesting of the two. No word yet on when or where shooting will be, but it should be fun.

Tonight I'll be going back for more Halos and Rainbows filming. Hopefully it won't be quite as late as Saturday's shoot.

Man, they want stand-ins for the regulars on a show on TNT in Portland, but I'm too short for all of the actors. Heh. Here's the link though, if you match any of the following criteria:

TIMOTHY HUTTON: Caucasian; Ht. 5'11" - 6'; Wt. 165-175; Brown Hair, Blue Eyes

The Theataaah

I went to my first theater audition today. To be honest, I'm not sure how well I did. I kind of think I was okay, but it's hard to tell sometimes. I'm getting better at showing up for these things and not getting too nervous; I'm sure the more I go to the easier it will be for me to stay cool. (ice cold) Heh.

I really liked the script (what I read of it anyway) so I think it could be a really fun play to be in if I were to be cast. I think I do so much better when I get to audition with another actor so I have someone to answer to and react to, but I try my best regardless.

Tomorrow I don't have any auditions, but then Saturday through Monday I'll be on the set of Halos and Rainbows. On Sunday I also have another audition, this one is in Auburn, so it'll be a busy day.

I Drove All Night

I was offered the supporting role of "Driver Girl," in the short film Halos and Rainbows, early yesterday morning. It's not paid, but I thought it would be fun and a good experience, plus I think the script is pretty good. You can check out the project on the Blue Crest Pictures website.

So, everyone in this first shoot showed up, we had our hair and make up done, and then we proceeded to drive from Bellevue to Alki Beach over and over and over to get every shot they needed. For most of it our car was on a flat bed and I just acted like I was driving while they filmed us dancing around and being silly. The shoot was pretty fun, but we filmed until 4am, so by the time I got home I was completely wiped out. Plus my character smokes so my throat and lungs are pretty sore today.

I think the shoot this weekend will be even more fun, because it's in a house and I have a few lines and walk throughs. Hopefully it won't shoot quite as late, but whatever, it's still fun.
