I'm chillin' on the couch waiting for my face mask to do it's thing. Last night was my first class at The Actor's Comedy Studio. We practiced "slating" and ran through a mock audition for beer commercials and a wireless commercial. It felt great to be in front of the camera again, although the first time watching film of yourself after a while is always a little strange. The two coaches gave excellent pointers and notes on what we did. One positive thing they said that I did during my slate was that my eyes "twinkled." The funny thing is that when I saw my eyes do that, before I got the positive comment on it, I thought, "Note to self: stop doing that weird thing with your eyes!" Lol. As it usually turns out, what we think is strange or unattractive about ourselves is often what someone else finds to be extraordinary or eye-catching. During the "wireless commercial" audish, I got the note to just relax, because my "actor switch" was turned on. He said to just relax and talk like a normal person. No! Not the actor switch! Lol. Yes, I'm totally guilty. Something I'm definitely looking forward to working on :)
So, this weekend I put together some mailings for a few agencies around town. I need to mail them asap! I'm definitely excited about going out and finding some representation. I found out today that a new tv drama is being created called The Luxe. It's a period piece, set at the turn of the century, and a few of the characters are my type! Just saying ;)
Alright, I'm gonna go wash this business off my face. The face mask, not Hollywood, of course.
