audition for a movie

Well, there is an audition for a movie that sounds interesting about 2 1/2 hours away from me next weekend, and I’m actually going to be in the area for something else the same day as the audition. I could easily work it out, but I don’t know if I should because I can’t really afford to commute during filming. Besides, I think they’re looking for a bigger time commitment than I can agree to. Too bad. It really sounds like an interesting role. The role I wanted to audition for is a Quirky, fun, free-spirited type Special Ed teacher. :)
Someday, . . . Someday.

TECHNICALLY, I auditioned for a small independant film. But I didn’t really know I was auditioning, so I don’t think this should count. I DID, however, get cast for one of the principle roles. . . so not too shabby. :) We started filming a couple of nights ago, so it was my first time on set. It was a lot of fun. A LOOOONG night, so it was hard to get out of bed to go to work the next morning, but a lot of fun! We have 5 more weeks of filming, but we’re only filming once or twice a week. Sometime in March, they’ll be showing a rough cut for our friends and family, so that should be a good time.

Okay, I’m almost 26 years old. It’s about darn time I start working on my goals. I’m making it a personal goal of mine to start with local theatre and other projects to gain some experience. I’m hoping to take an improv class after the first of the year, and I’m going to start looking for a photographer to shoot me for a great head shot. :)

I’m serious! I mean business! I’m going to spend the next year learning about the business, finding an agent, and getting all the training I can. Wish me luck!
