Movie Audition!

Last week I auditioned for a new Sci-Fi/Thriller style movie at a Casting Studio in Hollywood.  After corresponding with the Casting Director over e-mail, ironing out all the details, we realized that the Director and I had worked together in the past on some projects together, and when I had originally looked at the casting notice it didn't click that it was the same person. 
 

Busted!

Wednesday was such a crazy day for me that day because I was taking care of Diego for a couple of days while Neil was in Dallas for work, I had my Movie Audition that day which took up a chunk of my afternoon and then I had Happy Hour plans with Kristina at Canal Club in Venice, whom I haven't seen in months.  We finally had some time to catch up, and it was straight to Karaoke after (of course, I had to stop home and snuggle my little Digalo first).

This was a new Casting Studio for me and they had you sign in on an iPad and I was completely lost considering I don't even have Internet on my phone...yes, I like to live in the Golden Ages.  After getting some help from a friendly guy waiting for his Dodge Commercial Audition I went into the room and saw a few people waiting to Audition.  They were running about 45 minutes behind but that was totally fine because I was able to delve more into my scene and even read a little of the script.  Of course, LA is such a small world that I actually ran into my friend, Meghan, whom I haven't seen in such a long time!  She was also Auditioning for the Dodge Commercial but they were even further behind than we were!

Blast from the Past...5 years ago with Bree and Meghan at Bar Lubitsch (long before I knew I would work there)!

When it was finally my turn I walked into the room, and M* said hello right away and shook my hand.  We talked a little bit about the Audition process and how happy they were to have so many people reading for all the roles.  I had the scene mostly memorized and felt comfortable with the dialogue and 'Tomboy' character.  One of the Actors in the waiting room had told me my character was a badass, so that was kind of exciting for me!  After slating and doing the scene, M* gave me a small re-direct, in which I took the note and then we were done.  Quick and painless :)

I definitely want to be working on something soon, whether it's this movie, a Hosting gig, or starting my own show...I feel like something good is going to happen in the near future.  Hoping those good vibes are coming for me!
