Winter Wonderland
Welcome. I hope you had a great holiday. I have been running all over the place. I went to Austin, TX for the premiere of my short, ‘Intervention’ which played at the Alamo Drafthouse, dowtown and also at the Aztec IMAX theater in San Antonio. We had quite the turnout. There was well over a hundred people at each screening. It was well received and now the short is being submitted to festivals. Please see the picture above for the 3 leads of the film. It is based in Texas, but I am a NY businessman.
In addition, I came back from Texas and auditioned for a national Coors Light commercial as the mail clerk at Endeavor Studios. There were also auditions for the Strawberry One Act festival at Film Faction with Seth Michael May. I auditioned for the role of the snobby middle management secretary abuser. That was a fun role. Well, then I headed out of town for a holiday relaxing for a cruise on the Bahamas. Unfortunately, I received callbacks for both these roles, and I was away. It is always a balance between personal and professional life and it seems whenever I am out of the state, that is when the callbacks are scheduled. Well, I am back for good for 2008, so we should be all set.
Currently, I am still reading ‘Dr. Snow’ by Carol Saline and in the process of adapting it into a screenplay. It is an extremely detailed book with lots of information, so extracting the correct the scenes and characters is a very tedious process, but is being completed step by step. I have been in contact with Carol off and on and we are communicating as I complete the script.
I also completed a commercial for Clearasil with Amy. We had to make out for almost 8 hours long to complete this one. You’ll see why when you view the spot from Panopticon Productions based out of New York. They have done several productions ranging from Music Videos to Short Films, www.panopticonnyc.com
