What I've been up to...

We since my last post I ended up working on the set of "Chase" which I can just say that it was a blast!!! I got to see some of my fellow friends from "The Good Guys". It was also good to work with the crew on the set of "Chase". Been keeping pretty busy sending my information out as usual. Also been watching a lot of movies not just for the purpose of entertainment but also studying how the actors did things. I would turn around and try to emulate them then would emulate them with my style. It's all about always expanding you range and learning techniques. Everyone is on Hiatus for the Thanksgiving week, will be submitting to work on "Chase" after this week. Checked my StarMeter on my IMDb and it is now up to 5,427, AWESOME!!! Let's keep it going up, check out my IMDb page, www.imdb.com/name/nm3461570 and pass it to your friends. Have a couple things in the works right now but can't say much of what is going on. Will let everyone know when I can!! Let me tell you it is going to be exciting!!! I believe that is all for now. So for now what tomorrow will bring.

"The Good Guys" Wrap Party

Oh my gosh!! Talk about very cool. I got to see a lot of the regular extras from the show all the crew. I got to talk with Bradley, which is always fun and get my picture taken with him. Colin came in later and I was able to get my picture taken with him as well. They also had a video that they played, it was a gag reel and holy cow it was HILARIOUS!!! I asked Mitch when do we get a copy and he said to look for it when "The Good Guys" comes to DVD. I for one can't wait. It gives a small glimpse of what goes on daily on set, right before takes and how we would have to keep straight faces after them being so funny. I am looking forward to it coming back and working with them again (fingers-crossed). Well that is really all for now. Like I always say we will see what tomorrow brings.

"The Good Guys"

This was suppose to be published yesterday. WOW!! Is all I can say about yesterday on the set of "The Good Guys". It was the last day of extras for this season, and today was the last day of shooting for the season for the rest of them. The last episode of this season is called "Partners", very cool episode brings back Gary Cole as Frank Savage and Chris Klein as ??? ok you will have to wait and see, :). Yesterday was so much fun, not only did I work on the set of the police station but I also got to work on 2nd Unit when I wasn't on set. It was so much fun running from one scene to the other. And with the 2nd Unit stuff I ended up getting some really great coverage. And really nice I got to work with Chris Klein during a scene. He was talking to me and looking at me during the scene. Unfortunately I didn't get to say anything but it was very cool. Then even on the set of the police station I was able to get some face time as well. But just like I always say you don't know what it will turn out until it airs. I got to check out the CSI lab, it was awesome looking. Unfortunately the scenes that they were using the lab it was only between Det. Baily (Colin) and Samantha (Angela). I also worked on "The Good Guys" last Thurs. which was tons of fun. We were in the police station and did the usual walking. That is when I first saw Chris Klein, he is a very funny guy and at first I could place him until I realized he was "Oz" from all the "American Pie" films. Checked my IMDb page and my StarMeter was at 8,217, SCORE!! Times are really fun and exciting I may also be working "Chase" this coming Wed. I submitted and now just waiting to hear. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

"The Good Guys"

Today was a very cool day!! Not only did I get to get back to working on "The Good Guys" but I was fortunate enough to go and see and be on the new set!! WOW, is really all I could say at first!! It is going to be funny to see Dan Stark's (Bradley Whitford) reaction to the change, come up in the next couple episodes. Today we were at the police station obviously since I just mentioned it. I got to work with Lt. Ruiz (Diana Maria Riva) and Jack Bailey (Colin Hanks) first. Later in the night D.A. Liz Traynor (Jenny Wade) came on set. Also today was the airing of the episode that I was really featured. I have not been able to see it yet but I was told I was all over the episode!! SCORE!!! I can't wait to see it. Been busy working on getting the Mini Film Festival together, which has been taking up most my time. I have still been looking for local projects and submitting as usual. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Going Great!!

Well, it has been really busy lately with putting together the film festival for Oct. 6th. We decided to really go all out and do a red carpet event. It is going to be great. It also looks like we maybe having some press, media, newspaper, and magazine there. My great friend Izzy Zot an incredible designer is making me a gown for the premiere with some really incredible Italian silk. I will be posting pictures of it after the event. I hope this really shines a light on independent filmmakers here in Dallas. All of us here in the Dallas area (actors, directors, and crew)truly have some incredible talent we just need to show the spot light on them. I have been doing the usual of submitting to projects in the area. Working on my craft and other skills on a daily basis. Looking forward to the upcoming event and many more projects. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Update!!

Hello all!! Well been doing the normal sending out my information for projects. I have also been pretty busy putting together the Mini Film Festival that will be now showing 4 short films and 1 feature film. What is nice, is I am in all the films. If you are in the Dallas area, come check out some awesome local talent (not just me, lol). Tickets and specific information on the films are at www.jenniferbesser.com/mini_film_festival.html All the films are different and will make for a very interesting night. Talking with several local newspaper/magazines, and t.v. stations about maybe coming to the event!! Other than that not to much going on, auditioning and as always honing my craft. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Exciting News!!

Ok it has been a long time since I have done any blogging. Well tons of different things have been going on but I am back now. As usual I have been submitting to projects in the area and stuff outside the area when I get addresses. Also been keeping up with the auditioning, which is always fun. Had to do some reshoots for "The Favor" cause the hard drive didn't contain the files anymore. Also I don't remeber if I let you guys know that I have started to do a Marital Arts training class every Wed., Fri., and Sun. And let me tell you it has been a blast!!! It is not only an incredible workout but the stuff we are learning can all be used in film. How to hit, kick, how to take a fall, and many other very cool stuff. I am starting to feel a little like Milla (from Resident Evil, all of them) or Angelina (from Laura Croft). Some real bada-- chick that will mess you up if you mess with her!! It is really fun and I am having such an awesome time working with the other girls in the class. Now on to the EXCITING NEWS!!! I came up with a really cool idea and have set into motion. During the meeting with the Anderson Group awhile back the asked me to send information on projects that I have coming up that would be premiering soon, and they would see if they would be able to help do some PR for it. As I was calling and asking if any of the projects that I had just finished if they had decided on any date for premiere. Well they were all pretty up in the air. That is when I had a very cool idea, Premiere them all at once!!! So that is what I did, talked with all of the directors from the films and you know what they loved the idea (so did the Anderson Group)!!! So we figured out a date and we have booked the Angelika Dallas at Mockingbird Station in Dallas. Now we will be showcasing 4 (maybe 5) films, "Broken Seconds" (short film), "The Favor" (short film), "Lewis" (short film), "Tips" (maybe, short film), and "The Fun Room (feature film, Not suitable for under 18 yrs). All these films for only $10!!! That is a steal!! Now if you are in the Dallas area and you are a indie film lover than you don't want to miss this event. I have tickets available at: www.jenniferbesser.com/mini_film_festival.html

Check it out it has details on the films and you can also looks at some behind the scenes photos and trailers for the films. It will be Sept. 22nd starting at 7:30pm so if you are in the hurry and get tickets now cause they are going fast for this first time event that showcases so much Dallas talent. Hope to see you all there. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Whats Going ON!!

All right you have all been very patient and sorry I have taken so long to tell you all what has been going on. Alright you maybe wondering what happened at my meeting and now I am going to let you know. First off let's start with who I was meeting with, I had a phone conference with the Anderson Group from LA. They are publicist, and they are interested in working with me. I have googled their business and I think they have the same drive and determination that I do. The creator of the company Liza Anderson, after talking with and reading about her seems to be the perfect fit for me. Morgan who is a Texan who works with the Anderson Group, and she is the one who told Liza about me. Speaking to both Liza and Morgan they are incredible woman and the team that they have in LA I am looking forward to working with. Right now I am getting information together about films that I just completed to send to them to let them know when premieres are going to be. They want to work with me and I look forward to working with them. So get ready everyone I am taking the next step to further my career even further. My marital arts training is going great. We are not only learning how to do punches, but also learning how to fall, rolling up to a stand still after falling, and also grappling!! Talk about an all around class. I am getting to work with one of my friends Brandy who I may end up in a movie with and be playing both butt kicking heroines!! She is my complete opposite but we get along like we have know each other forever. Best Friends. It's funny they different people that you get to meet in this business. I have sent out for 5 different projects in the area. I also got the addresses to send my information off to several bigger projects. Films: "Man On A Ledge", "Wanderlust" and T.V. shows "iCarly" and last but not least "The Good Guys". Now most of you must be thinking well you have been on the show and yes I have been so far a recurring CSI Engel. The thing is I am considered a extra and I am wanting to step up my game even more and get a speaking role. I have talked with the incredible producer Mitch Engel and he told me to submit. I asked him should I only try to submit to CSI parts since that is what I have been seen as. He told me to submit to everything, so that is what I am going to do. I have loved working with this incredible team of people from "The Good Guys" show and hope to work with them much more. Sorry again for taking so long to let you guys know what going on but it has been a lot. Tomorrow have more training and I am excited to see what we will be doing next!! I am to start Parkour (free running) training next Sat., man I am going to be getting some serious workouts!!! Wed., Fri., and Sun. for marital arts and Sat. for Parkour!! So for now we will see what happens tomorrow!!

Callback

Well Sun. was the callback for the ABC True Crime Pilot "Final Witness". It went pretty good, I got to do some improving with another character. They said they would call us back to do some more if we got picked and sorry to say no call for me. Then was on to the marital arts training that I have recently started, but when I got there the door was locked for some reason and unfortunately we weren't able to workout. It is so going to be on Wed. Tues. is still on but the time has been moved to a later time in the day. Exciting stuff!!! Also I got a friend of mine to join in on the marital arts training, we may end up being the lead hero females in a film together. Which would be very cool and I look forward to it. Today has been a good day, edited my demo reel with stills from t.v. shows and new pictures. Wanted to add some of the new footage I have gotten recently but for some reason my drive is not accepting the disc. Check it out on my acting page on my website or my youtube channel. Tomorrow is going to be an awesome day and will let you all now what is up after. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Tons Going On!!

Since the last time I blogged lots have gone on. First off I ended up going to a meeting for The Business of Production which was put on by the DPA, DSA, and WIF.D. It was a very informative meeting and I saw a lot of people I know. It was good to catch up with old friends and meet new people. I even got to talk with the agent about some stuff. Fri. I started my Marital Arts training, which was tons of fun. It was nice to have a really intense workout. After training I had an audition for a feature film. It was funny at the audition I went in for one part and I was asked to read for another one. So I was like sure and they asked me if I needed time to look at it. I was like no cold read is cool. Looked at it for a sec and was ready to go. After I was done both the casting director and director both told me that was an awesome cold read. Now for some really awesome news, I got a callback for the ABC True Crime Pilot that I auditioned for the other day. It's now called "Final Witness". I am super excited to go back again and fingers crossed I get the part. Also got some really incredible news from my manager, I can't say much but have an important meeting this Tues. coming up. I will give more details after Tues. Exciting stuff though and very huge!!! Today was a day for cleaning and yard work. For some reason when I woke up this morning I was just a little sore but energized. I also wanted to get everything done because tomorrow is my callback. After my callback I have more Marital Arts training, this is going to be a Wed., Fri., and Sun. course. Also found out that they Parkour Free Runner class that I am in will be starting next Sat. This is like a stunt and stage combat class, another class that is going to be fun and a workout. Submitted to a couple projects in the area. Will let you all know how tomorrow goes and also Tues. let you know what I can't say right now. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Bridal Fashion Show

Well it has been about a week since my last blog and sorry for that it has been kinda crazy here. Wed. got the article from my friend who came over and interviewed me. I sent it to several places, including local t.v. and newspapers. I am debating on if I want to send it to bigger places or even TMZ??? Any advice. Fri. was dress rehearsal for the Dallas Bridal Fashion Show and it was crazy. First all I had been practicing the different scenes that we were doing and I thought I had them down. I was wrong. The second scene was giving me issues!! I hate when that happens then I was stressing cause I wasn't getting it and then you could tell by my face I was stressing. I had to take some deep breathes and remind myself I do this before big shows and show time I am awesome!! Sat. came around and we did a run threw before the show just to make sure we were all good (I wasn't the only one having issues Fri. night). We all nailed the run threw. So then it was time to get ready in my first outfit and then the start of the show!! First scene was really cool I even played it up some cause I had a short bridesmaid dress on and I did this little flick as I threw my leg out. It was fun. Then running to get change and I mean running cause by the time I got out of my dress they were like she better get going cause I was almost up!! Second scene (fingers-crossed) YES!! Nailed it!! It was very cool, this one was a long bridesmaid dress. Then next change into a very beautiful wedding dress!! Third scene, got the walk down but my dress had these spaghetti straps that would not stay up. First it was the left one and then it was the right. I made it like it was nothing. It had a long train also that I was having to be very conscious of. It was a very beautiful dress. Then on to my final change and this was my huge Casablanca wedding dress. This dress is very heavy and has a long train like the last one. This one I really played it up because the girl right before me had to do a complete change because she was going to be coming right behind me in another dress. So I walked slowly and did several pauses. It was very cool!! Everyone really seemed to like the dress cause they were all talking and ooo and awwwing!! Then that was the end of the show and the show went great. My hubby made the girls scream like always and I didn't fall or trip (which is always a good thing). I have submitted to several different local projects and also finally sent in the information for the Torrid House of Dreams Model Search. So fingers crossed that would be very cool if I can work with them I really like their clothes and I have modeled them for a couple fashion shows and loved doing it. To work with them more full time would be awesome. I got an address for a feature film called "The Last Beat". This one I fit the character description to the T. Not only that but also it will be filming in Paris, France, very cool. So will be sending my information out soon for that one. Also may have another contact for "Twilight: Breaking Dawn", will keep you all up to date on that as I learn more and can say more.. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Great Days

Well it has been a couple days sorry for that but it has been a little crazy. Friday was a lawyer commercial, actually for 7 different lawyers. Call time was for 1:30 pm so of course I got there about 12:55 (always feel like if I'm not at least 20-35 mins. early than I'm late). It turned out to be a very long day. There were complications with getting an ambulance there in time. Then when we started filming mine we were by the road so there was cars driving by almost twice a take. So we had to do it several times. One cool thing that I learned during the shoot is a new set word is "pancake". For others, like me, that have never heard what that is: it's a very small slender apple box. It raised me up about 2 inches so not to much. It was very cool. Sat. was an audition for an ABC pilot "Victim's Voices" (working title). When I sent in my information it was for a mom (principle part) in her 30s. When I got in to do the audition the casting director asked me how old I was and I was like 30 and she was like you don't look like it at all. So she told me there was another part that she had me read for a girl 18-early 20s and other characteristics fit me perfectly. So we will see what happens with that. Sun. was another fun filled day, was rehearsal for Dallas Bridal Show. We worked on choreography from 2 pm to 6 pm, I was exhausted by the end of the day. It is going to be awesome on July 31st at 3pm at the Dallas Market Center Hall. If any of you are in the area come by and check it out, the dresses are going to be incredible. Also I have a friend that will be there to take pictures of Todd and me during the show, and I will be posting them on my website as soon as I get them from him after the show. Mon. and today have been recover days, I have been on the verge of losing my voice over the last couple of days and finally lost it on Mon. Haven't find any new projects. Did find out that my manager will be contacting the casting director for "Twilight: Breaking Dawn" soon to see about getting me an audition. Which of course I am excited about, can't wait. Will let you all know when I get the audition. Thank you all for your support. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Great Day

Today has been a really cool day, got more of my house done and also found out that I have a lawyer commercial that I was asked to do. Very Nice!! Also talked with a casting director about a movie that I audition for awhile ago and he told me that he still in wanting me to work on his project. He hadn't gotten back with me cause the project has been pushed back. This one is a horror feature film "Untitled" (working title). Today submitted to a couple projects here in the Dallas area. Today is not a long one cause can't really stay up to late tonight and I have to study my lines for tomorrow's commercial. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Good Days

Well Tues. was a good day, went to my fitting for the Dallas Bridal Show. I really like it when I get to dress up and try on a bunch of different clothes. I ended will be going with 2 bridesmaid dresses (one short and one long) and 2 bridal dresses. The short one is a dark purple halter with a scarf, while the long one is a one shoulder light pink one. The bridal ones are amazing. One I have already worn, it's a Casablanca, strapless with a design on the top and the bottom is huge (I will have a pettie coat underneath it) BEAUTIFUL. The other one is completely different, has spaghetti straps a line, has a lace with design jewels on it. VERY BEAUTIFUL!!! So I was very happy that I am going to be able to wear them in the fashion show. I am going to have to make sure I get one of my photographer friends there to take my pictures (unlike last time). Today has been more of a family day, I have been deep cleaning and rearranging furniture all day!! I know what is up with that. I submitted to several things yesterday and today. I am filling out the form for the Torrid model contest and should send it by this weekend. I have a possible commercial for tomorrow, still waiting to hear for sure though. Update on "Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn" my manager has got the contact information for the casting director for it and she told me she is going to be getting in contact with them shortly. So this is very good news!! While I wait to hear I am crossing my fingers and rereading "Breaking Dawn". So for now we will see what tomorrow brings

"Friday Night Lights"

It has been several days since the last time I blogged. Friday was a good day doing the usual of preparing by cleaning the house and laundry for the weekend but also trying to get ready for Sat. night were I was scheduled to work on "Friday Night Lights". The call time was 5pm and the email said could go until 5am the next morning so I was gearing up for that. So Sat. came and it was really hot outside and it was a football game so we had to dress in fall clothing!! I brought several different colors but the main ones were red and burnt orange. I started out rutting for the Hawks (burnt orange) and then when they moved us I was then cheering for the Lions (red). It was a lot of fun. The Lions had an incredible drum that would play and really get the crowd cheering and dancing. They filmed us and our reactions to several plays on the field. It was very cool. Number 44 on the Lions came up to wear I was sitting and was taking some pictures and I got to talk to him a little it was cool. He was very nice, and took several pictures with quiet a few of the fans. The heat ended up not being to bad cause they filmed when the sun went down. Then it was back to cheering for the Hawks again. Once by the tunnel and I was in a pretty good spot. Then we moved to the side of the Hawks side line and I was in the front row right were the camera was filming. That will be cool to see. Then it was watching some plays on the field again and our reactions. There was one time that the were filming a catch and the fans but let's just say it took a little while to get that take. We ended up staying until 3am in the morning, so not as late as I thought it was going to be. But I was hoarse by the end and the next morning I woke up I was not feeling the best. I was lying around all day cause I was drained. It could of been from all the yelling or cause I was wearing a long sleeve pull over in the heat. Today I am feeling like I am back to myself. Also found out that I have to do the fitting for the Dallas Bridal Show this week and it sucks cause I am bloated right now!! NO fun!! This always happens to me when I have modeling things coming up. Today I submitted for several projects, also over the weekend found out there is a nationwide search for a 2011 Modeling Contest with Torrid. I have done 3 runway show with them so far and I love their clothes and would love to model for them more full time. So I am filling out the form and will be sending the forms out over the next couple days. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Audition "Blissful Lies"

Well it has been a good couple days. I have submitted to several different projects. Also I found an address for a part on "Lone Star", which films here in Dallas. It would be a recurring part. So I will keep my fingers-crossed. From what I could tell they wont start filming until July 27. Today I had an audition for a independent feature film called "Blissful Lies". It went really good I believe, they told me that they will let me know in the next couple days. I went for one of the female lead roles. There were 3 different characters that I read. This was a real cold read, I went in they handed me the sides and so take a minute to look over than start. It has been awhile since I have done that. They told me they wanted to hear how I read, but I am a person even as reading and talking I act so I hope that didn't hurt me. I didn't work on "Chase" today but I know that I will again. It is a very cool show and hope to be working with the incredible show. The cast and crew were very cool when I got to work with them when they were shooting the pilot here in March. A good tip of the day is to always go out and audition. It may sound weird but the more I do the more comfortable I feel doing it. So that is all for now, so we will see what tomorrow brings.

"The Favor" and more

Well it has been a crazy last couple days with tons happening. First off let's start the filming of "The Favor". We ended up having to reshoot all of the stuff in the office which is pretty much the entire film. But it was cool cause I felt better about my performance this time than last. I got to put my hair up again in pig tails and for some reason this time my head was hurting I must of put them in to tight. The usual wardrobe that I had last time. We wrapped about 6:00 got some picture with some of the crew (which I put on my website). While I was filming I got an invite to a wrap party for "The Good Guys" which I was totally stoked about. Thankfully we got done in time for me to go to the wrap party!! It was a blast. I got to hang out with all the crew and Diana Maria Riva and Colin Hanks were there. They are about to go on a 6-week hiatus, man going to miss them all. So that was all Sat. and then Sun. had to recover a little from the very long day of Sat. and then had to get ready for rehearsal for the Dallas Bridal Show that I will be in on July 31 here in Dallas. That was a long practice but very cool. I am going to be the last one to come out except for the finally and that one is like a story one. This is going to be a really fun one and as I hear it a huge one. When I got done with that one got home and it was time to prep for my sons birthday party. So Sun. was another long day. Today has been a little less crazy. I did have a friend come over and interview me cause he is an incredible writer and he's helping me cause I will be sending the article to several places (magazines, newspaper, t.v. guide, radio show, and local media). Also got some really cool news that I will be working on "Chase" Thurs. as a Battered Woman, and I have a commercial either on Wed. or Fri. Just got booked on Sat. for "Friday Night Lights" they will be filming here in Dallas, sweet. As far as other projects I have submitted to a couple here in the area, also heard back from that I recently sent out (always a good thing). Got an address to submit for a part on "CSI: Miami" fingers-crossed. Tip of the day never stop believing and if you have to self promote!! So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Good Days

Well it has been a relaxing couple days since last blog. It has been raining a lot though, UGHHH!! Did some lawn mowing on Wed. and some house cleaning much fun. Thurs. was a relaxing day cause it was raining!! And today I have been working on going over "The Favor" (just refreshing cause it has been couple weeks since I worked on it. It is all in there still. Today submitted to an independent film shooting here in Texas call "Blissful Lies", (which have audition the 15th with them), a couple t.v. shows "Three Inches" and "The Glades". Finally also a feature film called "Hollywood...". I also got the address to 2 more projects called "Home Run Derby" and "Arturo Bond: Dine Another Day" (this one sounds funny). So will be hoping to have time to send out this information out tomorrow. One more got email for audition for voice over work for Staples. Very cool will be doing that tonight hopefully or tomorrow as well. Going to be a very busy day tomorrow!! But that is how I like it. "Chase" and "Lonestar" starting next week and getting excited about that. Also talked to a friend of mine that is going to be helping put together an article that I am going to submit to several different papers (maybe even some t.v.) to just kinda get my name out there more. Right now I am going to put this out there, there is a part that has just now started casting in LA and I am finally going to start putting it out there that I want it. I haven't been trying to say it to really anyone but I finally realized that the first time I started saying what I wanted and believed that I was going to do it and get what I was saying, it happened. So I don't know if many of you are "Twilight" fans but I am (no not one of the crazy stalker types,lol). Just I find the books and the movies are so capturing. I love the story and like a lot of you (if your a fan) have read the books several times. The thing is the first time I read the books it was when I was first thinking about acting and modeling, and it tipped the scales for me. And when I read "Twilight: Breaking Dawn" I connected with the Kate character, she is so cool!! So I am going to go for the role of Kate Denali in "Twilight: Breaking Dawn". I am in the process of getting my manager on this and asking others that are friends in the industry about getting in this audition. I know that I really could bring this character to life, also other fans may find it cool if there were to go watch a see another fan in the final films!! Ok now that I have done that, I look forward to any comments. I will keep everyone informed on what happens and just be waiting to see me in "Twilight: Breaking Dawn" (that is my way of saying I will get this, throwing it out there). So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Good Days

I know I said I was going to go on here more and do this more and low and behold my computer messes up on me!! Figures, it seems to be working now so here we go. It has been a couple of relaxing days. Bummed to say that I wont be working on "The Good Guys" before they go on their little break before coming back to shoot the next 7 episodes. Now start the craziness of "Chase" and "Lonestar" which I hope to be keeping me busy very soon. They both start filming next week so I am relaxing while I can. I have filming of "The Favor" this Sat. hope nothing else crazy comes up to were we can't finishing filming. Since the last time I blogged I have submitted to several different projects in the area. I have also submitted to some bigger ones: 2 films "Marvelous" and "Seven Days in Utopia" (which is going to be filming here in Texas, sweet!!), and 1 t.v. pilot "Archaeology of a Woman". I am hoping for the "Seven Days in Utopia" cause it not only films here in Texas but the character that I am going for is a horse whisper in training. Which is perfect I used to train and live on a farm for a big majority of my life. So I am keeping my fingers crossed. Also for the bridal show audition got it!! Sweet!! I am excited to see what wedding dress and bridesmaid dresses I will be in this time. It will be on July 31st at the Market Center Hall in Dallas, so if you are in the area come check it out. Hoping I am not missing anything, almost forgot I got a shirt from "The Good Guys" that says it on the back and then says Cast and Crew Season 1 on the front. It is cool. Ok I am pretty sure that is all, hope everyone had an awesome 4th. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Great Days

Well yesterday I had two auditions. One was for a industrial video for Ambit Energy. There was a script and we had to read the one that fit us best. Mine was for a hockey mom type. There were several people a head of me so I was able to pretty much memorize it. It went pretty good the casting director said "very nice, thank you". So we will see what happens with that one. Next was an audition for the Dallas Bridal Show. I have worked with this company before and if picked I look forward to working with her again. It was nice though cause I got to see the new office of my manager. The place was awesome!!! Also got to talk with Lou about my training for the stunt and stage combat class that starts soon. Saw some friends that I haven't seen in awhile and it was good to catch up. Did some major industry talking with all the people that were there. Today met up with a friend that I haven't seen in a very long time and it was cool to talk with her. Called about "The Good Guys" cause they on Thurs. start the last episode (13) before they go on a 6 week break, (then when they come back will film another 7 episodes or more??) to see if they needed any CSI. Nope, was told to call back on Fri. for next week. I am so going to miss everyone for those 6 weeks. But I will more than likely be really busy cause "Chase" and "Lonestar" start right after "The Good Guys" start their break. Then it will be a toss up between t.v. shows, huh what a problem to have. I will be loyal to my CSI Engel and "The Good Guys" and always give them first dibs on me, lol. Its kinda funny saying it like that. As far as submissions to projects today I sent emails to 2 t.v. shows "True Jackson VP" and "Big Love", one feature film "Juke Box Hero", and one commercial. Also got the address to submit my information to t.v. show "Enlightened". So a very productive day!! I wanted to say I am going to make an extra effort to make sure and do this everyday or every other day. Also love all the comments keep them coming I like to answer them and also glad to see what you guys think. Keep your dreams alive and don't let anyone stop or slow you down!! It is what you believe and how you feel that determines you own self!! So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

"The Good Guys"

Wow it has been very crazy busy this last week. First off found out Mon. was going to be working on "The Good Guys" on Tues. and Thurs. which I was super excited about. Let's get started on all the good stuff that you all want to know about. On Tues. when I got there I was told that is was an off day because Bradley Whitford (Dan) was sick so they had to change the schedule some but today was going to be a lot of Diana Maria Riva (Lt. Ana Ruiz) and Jenny Wade (Liz Traynor). This episode "Common Enemies" is going to be awesome, it not only has action going on with the guys but the have another story going on with the ladies. Trust me the fellas are going to be loving this episode!! Tues. was police station and it was a great day got to Lt. Ruiz and Liz Traynor working it but saw the new female guest star who her name on the show is Zoe. Thurs. Bradley (Dan) was back and ready to go. At the police station again and got to meet another guest star that ends up ... Ok I don't know what to say but it this guys is a forensic specialist and you know how Dan feels about forensic. Now Fri. was the topping of the cake!!! Over the 3 days I was in some really cool places to be seen by camera but you never know if it will make it in the final shot. So we will see. But I did get picked to hand Joel Spence (Detective Hodges) while he was giving a speech to the whole police station. It was so awesome my heart was beating so fast. It was really cool we shoot the scene several times and I had to time when I gave him this paper, that made me nervous I walked in from off scene. It was funny one of the takes Colin and Bradley were making jokes about wind breakers and I started laughing and they were about to start filming. I was like breathe, breathe this was a serious scene and I couldn't have a smile on my face. Now I really can't wait for this episode. There is also only one more episode until the take a break for 6 weeks and then will be back to do 7 more!! Also talked with Mitch Engel (producer of "The Good Guys") again and I gave him one of my business cards telling him about my website when he told me he read my blog when I mentioned him. If you are reading this one Mitch it was great seeing you again. It was very cool that he read my blog. This crew and cast of "The Good Guys" are so incredible!! While on set also I got to talk to Kenny about joining a precision driving team that I will be joining for the Dallas area. Today I was suppose to do filming of "The Favor" and I was contacted last night while on set that the camera was still in the shop and they wouldn't have it for the filming so had to reschedule. Also have a tip for the day is more of a set term "Wild Line" which is when ever one freezes on set and the actor says a certain line in to the mic. They did one with Diana when she said "We've got a situation!" and also when I was leaving last night I heard them saying that as I was leaving the set. I haven't really had much time to submit to projects, with "The Good Guys" and family time. Am checking the usual spots and will submit did get the address to one project "Burn Notice" which is created by the same person who created "The Good Guys", Matt Nix. I have talked when him when he was asking me questions. I thought maybe he would remember talking with me and working me on the set of "The Good Guys" and may have a part for me, fingers-crossed. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

"The Favor"

Well it has been a crazy past couple days. Been submitting to several projects, sent out information to several different projects, and getting ready for "The Favor" which filmed yesterday almost all day. Filming of "The Favor" started with the laundry scene, which I was the only actor in that scene. It was interesting I got there at 7am and we shoot for 2 hours!! Me doing a sort of monolouge and folding laundry. They got tons of different angles and shoots. It was crazy hot in that laundry room at the apartment complex. Then it was on to the rest of the scenes. We shoot scene 2 which is when my character ends up saying she will grant her boyfriend a favor for ruining his beloved pants (yeah trust me it is hilarious) Then when we moved on the the next scene they wanted to shot one direction and then next they had a discussing about not moving the camera from that angle and just started to jump around from scene to scene. It was a little different than I ever had before cause it was unsure of what we got on each scene. I stayed until after 7pm so it was 12 hour day and came home. We tried to get it all done but were unable to finish. So I have more filming on next Sat. Going to be calling casting department for "The Good Guys" cause the last time I talked to them I was told that I maybe working this coming Wed. threw Fri. which would be awesome!! Today have sent out my information out to 3 projects in the area and 1 feature film outside the area. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

"Broken Seconds" Premiere

WOW!! Is all I can say. It turned out really awesome. The reactions were incredible, now here is to hoping the festivals feel the same way. After the film we had a Q & A session and the director called up the DP and then the composer and everyone was clapping normal. Then he called my name and the cheers and clapping were INCREDIBLE!! I was blushing when they all did that. I answered several questions and it was really cool to be up there and doing that. After it we were leaving and so many people wanted to talk to me and I was in Awww. I even signed my first autograph on the back of one of the tickets. It was cool. Hubby and I went with my manager and some of others to a restaurant near the theater. While there I had someone come up to me and ask me if I was in films and I was blushing big time. Everyone one was so nice to me and I felt so blessed to have worked on this project and to have such support. Today has been a relaxing day. Got 2 addresses for some projects: "The Gates" (t.v. show) and "The Girl With The Dragon Tatto" (feature film) which I will be sending out tomorrow. Also emailed stuff in for "The Glades" (t.v. show) for a new episode. Today I talked with a friend on facebook and he was telling me he didn't know what to do with his acting and modeling career. I asked him what he was doing and he said nothing. Well this plays in to the tip of the day. Same as I told him, if you do nothing, nothing will happen. You have to go out there, put yourself out there. Cause you wont find the right projects that you are made for, and you can learn from the wrong ones. I always take away something from everything, see every experience (even bad) as a way to learn and improve yourself. Hope this helps some. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Cool Day

Today has been a pretty cool day. Only 2 more days til premiere "Broken Seconds", EXCITING!! Worked on "The Favor" script, this is going to be an everyday thing and maybe even twice a day thing. Then got some emails about some upcoming projects. Sent emails to 3 projects: "Fringe", "Outlaw Country", and "Final Sale" (besides "Fringe" the others are movies). Then also got an address for role on an episode of "Mad Men". Just putting my stuff out there enough and something is going to catch it!! Checked the usual spots and did find one casting call for the 26th but I am suppose to be filming "The Favor". Here's to hoping that we get all the scenes done on the 19th (fingers-crossed). Got to play with the kids today which is always fun. They make me laugh so hard sometimes. Also today is another episode of "The Good Guys" YEA!!! I love Mondays!! Will be posting of pictures of where I am in the episode on website (www.jenniferbesser.com) either tomorrow or Wed. Okay tip of the day, put yourself out there. I am firm believer that if you put it out in the world enough it will come true!! And believe in yourself!! So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Good Days

Saturday had a audition for a film. It went pretty well and I got to meet up the director and the producer. I got a call from the producer today saying that I didn't get the part I auditioned for but he has 2 projects coming up that he would like me to be in so, that good. You never knows what can come out of auditions even if you don't land the part you can get other things if you make a good impression. Today was a fun day playing with the kids and really starting to make sure I all good with my script for "The Favor". Start filming on that one this Sat., and we are going to try to get as much done as possible. That means I must have the whole script down!! I will call casting group for "The Good Guys" on Wed. to see if they need me Fri. (fingers-crossed!) I have looked in the usual spots and found a couple local projects that I submitted for and look forward to anything extra that comes my way. Tomorrow "The Good Guys" is airing it's 3 episode and this is one of the episodes that I got to preview and it is hilarious!! This one though I am in the police station only and I go by really quick. I will post pictures of where I was probably on Tues. or Wed. Doubling up on my workout for the next couple months have a project that I am wanting to get and I have to be in tip top shape. Wednesday is the big premiere of "Broken Seconds" and man am I excited!! The director has already put it up for 6 festivals and looking forward to see how it does there. Also got an audition for a Bridal Fashion Show, these are always fun!! So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

"The Fun Room"

Today was the torture scenes for "The Fun Room". It was really a very interesting day. I was getting tortured so I had to be crying and frightened!! I think I did a pretty good job cause the director was like perfect and would change angles and not worry about getting more takes (which would mean I nailed it). First we went threw the scenes one just by myself than when Kris (bad guy) comes in and starts the torture. The writing was very demented!! It was frightening the device that he tortures me with and then he breaks my jaw with his hands!! Yeah, I know right. That is when we used some special effects make-up. It was cool cause Shelly had made a fake jaw that was going to be covered in a latex skin and then she blended that with my own skin with some more latex and silicone. It was cool she even put some blood under it to make it look like it was bleeding when it was being ripped off. I didn't get to see it but I am looking forward to seeing some of the stills from it. Also while I was there I got a call for an audition tomorrow for a role in an indie feature film (unknown name) that is shooting here in Dallas. I got 3 email address for some different projects that I submitted for: "The Glades" (t.v. show), "Seduction" and "Transplant" (feature films). Then I also talked with a friend of mine that will be teaching me some martial arts!! How cool is that. Just another thing that I can add to my resume. I am excited it will be 4 girls and we are going to be doing different fight things and different martial arts. There is tip of the day get a variety in training, all types not just acting class. The better you know your self and your body (physical training helps with this) the better actor you are. Other than the ones I sent out that I told you about didn't find anything else. So for now we shall see what tomorrow brings.

Good Days

The past few days have been kind of busy, mainly with family and doing stuff with the house. Been working on "The Fun Room" script for tomorrow, it is tough because it is very emotional (cause I am being tortured). I am pushing myself to do to the point of just crying. I don't want to bring on the water works full on til I get on set. It can also be very draining for me and the kidos are wondering why I am crying. Also talked with the casting company for "The Good Guys" and not needed right now, to check back with them on next Wed. Some of the stories just don't have anything for me to investigate. They did say they will be needing kids so that is curious?? Also one new thing today I realized I have comments on my last blogs. Didn't know and so I commented on some of them. Will be more diligent about checking for comments and replying to all you awesome readers. Got some new projects (feature films) that I will be submitting for: "Savanah", "Someday This Pain Will Be Useful To You", "Everybody Loves Whales", and "Mirror Images". I also sent emails out for 2 feature films: "Fright Night" and "House Of Last Things". Haven't found anything more locally but I am looking forward to "Chase" and "Lonestar" returning in July. Also added a new page to my website, www.jenniferbesser.com, of projects that I have done that aren't from film or t.v. that I have done. Even some projects that I have created myself. Which is one thing I have learned in acting class to be proactive not reactive. By making projects up and creating my own acting situations to show my versatility. There is a tip in those last few sentences, "BE PROACTIVE NOT REACTIVE!!" Also for a comment that was left a while ago about not giving up, Thank you all for your support and I will NEVER GIVE UP!! This is what I am meant to do!! So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Good Days

Well it has been a couple days since blogging. I have been doing some family time also preparing for upcoming filming of "The Fun Room" and "The Favor". For "The Fun Room" I was suppose to film today but got rescheduled for Friday, so that is just more time for getting ready for my torture scene!! Also I was checking out facebook today and found a promo on "The Good Girls of The Good Guys" from Youtube and I am in it at the beginning and the end. I was so excited to see that. Here is the link if you would like to check it out, http://bit.ly/d47Yl3 As far as projects there have been several that I have received that I sent my information to and also an address that I will send hard copies to. I will be finding out if I will be working on "The Good Guys" Thurs. or Fri. tomorrow. Also I updated my profile on the Dallas Image site. Added things to my website also. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Great News

It has been officially announced that "Broken Seconds" will have it's BIG PREMIERE ON JUNE 16th at 7:30 pm at the Angelika in Dallas, Texas. It will be invite only cause of limited seating. I am so excited to have this one premiere cause this is my first really big role as lead. Also it was a really awesome movie to make. Other than that today has been a pretty laid back day. Sent out headshot and resume to casting directors of "X-Men: First Class" and "Wilfred". So fingers-crossed on those. Also late last night got an email with information on submitting for "iCarly" which would be really funny cause my daughter loves "iCarly" and she would flip if I was on there. Didn't find much else on my usual spots. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

"The Good Guys"

Yesterday was filming on "The Good Guys". We were in the police station which is always fun (CSI lab upstairs, LOL). It was a really cool day, it was the first day shooting of episode 10 called "Vacations". It was cool cause I got to see all of the cast Colin Hanks (Jack), Bradley Whitford (Dan), Diana Maria Riva (Lt. Ruiz), and Jenny Wade (Liz). The wanted to do all of the police station scenes so it was a long day. Lt. Ruiz was up first doing some conversation on the phone scenes. It was very cool to see how they do those kinds of scenes. The writer Aaron Ginsburg did an awesome job with this episode. It is super funny and has some new characters. I got to see one that was let's just put it this way HUGE!! He was 7 ft. tall and really muscular!! WOW!! That is what all the women were saying!! Then it was time for Jack and Dan to be in Lt. Ruiz office as usual!! Those guys are always up to something, lol. Then they leave her office which means time for me to find my usual spot on the CSI stairs. I was having a blast everyone was in awesome moods and being their usual funny selves. I also got to talk to the crew guy, Streets, that Colin actually said is like Mario from the Mario Brothers game. Colin even has video on his twitter account of Streets dressed up and doing the Mario moves to the Nintendo music. Freaking funny!! I told Streets that was really cool of him to do that and he was like "this crew likes to have a good time". That is so the truth!! After lunch we were doing a scene and from one angle I would cross after a Hodgins (detective from show) would leave after talking to Jack and Dan. But this actually ends up being a really long scene with two different parts after Jack, Dan, and Hodgins split Jack and Dan meet up with Liz where Dan leaves Jack and Liz to talk. So this was a really cool scene to shoot. It not only had several different angles and takes but I got to do a suicide cross in front of the camera (being operated by my buddy Kenji, who I told not to run me over). It was a lot of fun, and I didn't end up getting run over!! During one of the takes though the director asked Bradley "to come quicker" and Bradley had the most funny expression and was like "I can do that". And standing like right next to him and he was kinda looking in my direction me and the wardrobe lady started to blush and bust up!!! And Colin being right there had to point it out that I was blushing, I was like "it was her" and I pointed to where the wardrobe lady was standing (what I didn't know was she was gone) and Colin said "who you talking about no one is there". Let me tell you I then turned a deeper red and I was getting really hot!! And I had to breathe cause we had to shoot the scene. FUN DAY!!! After that long scene we had one more scene were I was walking up behind Lt. Ruiz as she was making a phone call and walking around in the precinct. It was a 12 hour day which is not to bad but very fun. Also got to pet the infamous puppy of Brad's, she was just begging to be pet. Brad came up as I was petting her and we talked a little before he said to his puppy "you stay her" so he could go change for his scene. He is so nice, also heard from one of the stand-ins on set that Dan Stark is a ladies man on the show!! Looking forward to the next time I am on the show and I will be giving a much details with out giving to much, just enough!!!

The Fun Room

Well it has been a while since I have been able to blog. Something has been up with my computer. So time to catch up. First off have been submitting for stuff every day lately. Also have been crazy busy doing several projects. Right now have "The Favor" which will film on the 19th and 26th of June. "The Fun Room" which have started filming this one, have done several scenes with 2 major ones. The three scenes I have filmed already have been when I first knock on the wrong door. Then I had two scenes where I was already dead, one which show the aftermath of all of "Eddie's" (name of the bad guy) victims in one room. Then was a really weird one, I'll just say it was were "Eddie" was having a weird dream. To finish out "The Fun Room" I have filming on the 7th for the two torture scenes that I have. This is going to be an interesting day. Been reading threw my script of "The Favor", whats funny the bad guy from "The Fun Room" almost auditioned for "The Favor" which would mean in one film he would torture me and in the other is my boyfriend. "The Favor" is a very funny script and I have a feeling with be real fun to film. Did work on "The Good Guys" but will post on a different blog for that stuff. Putting my stuff together to send out for a role on "Wilfred" which is a t.v. show on FX. That would be very cool to get a part on that one. Also sending my stuff in for upcoming t.v. shows that are filming here in Dallas, "Chase" (by Jerry Burckheimer), "Lonestar" (used to be "Midland"), and Choas (a FOX production about spies). "Chase" and "Lonestar" filming in July (right after "The Good Guys" go on a break before coming back in end of Aug. beginning of Sept.) then "Choas" will be coming in the fall to start filming. I was on both pilots for "Chase" and "Lonestar" (aka "Midland") so I am hoping to get some really good parts on both of those. And "Choas" sounds really cool and that would be cool to get on. Maybe will be working on 4 t.v. shows by the end of 2010, fingers-crossed. I think I got everything, oh except I think I maybe taking a trip to LA soon...that's all I can say for now. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Great Days

Well Sunday was relax day cause I needed it. For some reason my thighs were sore!! Oh wait I know it was cause on Friday I was doing squats picking up evidence for "The Good Guys". Today was family and fun. Now on to Mon. I got a txt from my acting coach Ben Ryan asking if I was available to do some voice-over work, heck yeah!! So I ended up going in and doing some voice-over work. It was a crash course really I read 46 different lines at least 3 different ways. I had trouble on one sentence!! And was it bad I was messing up "their" and "get to". Also he had to tell me a couple times to watch my Texas accent, huh that is the first time anyone has ever told me that. It was kinda of cool though. It was definitely a learning experience for me. Now I can say I have done some voice-over work. Found out today that I wouldn't be needed for the rest of the week for "The Good Guys" but should call back on Fri. for next week. This weekend is going to be a full one. Sat. is read-threw for "The Favor" and then scene 18 from "The Fun Room", Sun. scene 64 from "The Fun Room", and then Mon. scene 50 from "The Fun Room". All I will have left of "The Fun Room" will be the torture scenes 21 and 27 to do, right now scheduled for the 8th of June. So this month will have filming of "The Favor" and "The Fun Room" two totally different types of films (comedy and horror). It is always good to stretch myself as an actress and play a diverse type of roles. Checked the usual spots and didn't find any new projects that I could submit for. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

"The Good Guys" and more

I was on location for "The Good Guys" yesterday and it was a blast. Literally they blew up a truck, which is always cool cause I get to investigate the area. Bradley and Colin both were there and guest star?? (You'll have to wait and see) This was for episode 9. It was a very hot and humid day and Bradley and Colin both were troopers with acting and dying in the heat. So I was set to investigate the truck which is cool, but I also got new tools today, which included safety glasses, tweezers (to pick up evidence, and new evidence bags (now more paper lunch sacks). We were out in front of a house and the main actors were doing their lines in the yard so I figured I was in the background in this scene. So needless to say I was a little shocked when they opened up the drivers door of the truck (I was on the passenger door dusting for prints and then picking up evidence) and they started to film me!! Wow!! And then they put the camera on the ground under the truck and asked me where the evidence was that I collected and I told them. They said they wanted me to stay in one area so I was squared in the frame, so I moved some of my evidence. Totally Wow!! But I am not getting my hopes up cause you never know how it is going to be edited. It was funny though while they were doing these shoots the 2nd AD was like this is for Jennifer's reel, LOL!! He is so cool he came up to me earlier and told me my facial expression when Bradley and Dan came into the Julius apartment was priceless. "The Best expression ever!" Scott is so nice!! Not only did that happen but I also had lots of people tell me that they saw me on the pilot a lot. Even had one guy ask me for my autograph. This is all so surreal when people come up to me and ask me or say things like that. I was just fortunate enough to be in that spot and thankfully have been asked back. Then after I wrapped on "The Good Guys" it was to a meeting for a music video I am playing lead in "Secret Affair". Which was very cool to see all the different locations that they were thinking about shooting. Also the song is very cool. Today has been very good, went on audition this morning for "The Reckoning" went pretty good. I auditioned for two different parts (Alex and Marie), we will see what happens with that one. Then when I got home I got a chance to really look and play with the pictures that my friend John Pinder took of me the other day. I even made a new video of my "Many Looks of Jennifer Besser" video. I updated my website again and would love some feedback so let me know. Sent my information out to 5 different projects, couple t.v. things and the some feature films (all of them not in the area). So for now that is all and we will see what tomorrow brings.

Good Days

Wed. was an awesome day. I not only got to do some work with my manager but also got some new headshots and bodyshots done. Shelly Pinder did my hair and makeup and her husband did my pictures. We went to a really cool place that had a gazebo, a couple out buildings, a caboose that was on tracks, and pretty fencing. It was right before dusk and John told me the lighting is perfect for my skin and hair color. I told him what I was looking for and I think we got it. I have so many different looks but I don't have one that I just think is "the one" that will draw everyone in. I will post them once I get them which should be Fri. at the meeting for the "Secret Affair" music video meeting. I will be also working on "The Good Guys" on Fri. as CSI Engel. I am wondering if it will be on location or at the police station. On location usually means I can play with my tools in my kit. Last time I was at a location I got to actually lift some finger prints, NICE!! Today I have been getting ready for the next couple days since Fri. will probably be gone all day, then I have an audition on Sat. for "The Reckoning". I will be audition for two different parts both are women that are strong willed and have to be able to do action stuff and I can so do that! I checked the usual spots and submitted for a project called "Clicked". So excited about tomorrow and then Sat. will let you all know what happens. Also did a lot to my website today by adding a page for "The Good Guys" and added pictures and videos. Check them out and let me know what you think. So for now we will see what happens.

"The Good Guys" and more

Well I haven't blogged in the last couple days cause it has been super busy and crazy here. It is very good stuff though. Sat. morning I had an audition for a independent short film called "The Favor", I was auditioning for the lead role Sara. First off I got lost and couldn't find the room that the audition was at but I didn't give up. I finally found it and I was 20 mins. late. They were very cool about it and I was all excited and out of breathe cause all the searching I was doing. I went up to the X and did my lines. I messed up once but I didn't let it slow me down or even that it effected me. After I was done I joked around with them a little and said that I had fun and talk to them soon. I worked on "The Good Guys", it was an 5pm call time and we didn't wrap until 6am on Sun. We were at the stages (police station). This was episode 8 and it is going to be a good one. I don't want to give much away but let's just say the Bradley Whitford (Dan) takes on a new persona!! He is such a versatile actor. He does accents really good as well. I was also told that there is going to be some skippy clothing by one of the actors (not one of the females, ;) I got to see Diana Maria Riva doing her thing and being the best Head Lady in Charge!!! Also got to talk to her and she was talking to me about the Upfronts that she and all the rest of the cast going to do in New York!! She is so nice to talk with me. We did about 7 scenes. The very last scene was hilarious cause it was between Diana (Lt. Ruiz), Bradley (Dan), and Colin (Jack), with it being like 5 am Colin was getting the giggles which of course become contagious. Crew, extras, Diana, Bradley, and Colin were all laughing. The director was like let's skip that part and Bradley was like we can do it. The finally got it and it was awesome. I have had that happen before (getting the giggles) and it took all my strength to get it under control. I also got to talk to talk with Mitch Engel (yes that is the name on my CSI shirt). He asked if he could take a picture of me in my uniform, I was like sure. We ended up talking a lot and he is very nice. I even ending up taking a picture with him at the end of filming. I think that is all for that part, now when I got home Sun. morning my kids were wide awake and didn't want me to sleep so I stayed up. Now for the big news that I haven't been say I went to a special preview of "The Good Guys", I got to view the pilot episode and episode 4. Now let me tell you how excited I am cause in the pilot I was really in it. You could see me right next Bradley and Colin when they entered into a crime scene. I even gave Bradley (Dan) a weird look cause he was ....... Ok I can't say anymore cause I don't want to ruin it but it is really good. I even had some of the other extras come up to me and say since I got the most scene time that I was hosting the next viewing party. There were also time in the police station that I am seen but it is really quick and I knew where to look so, just look for the blonde in uniform. The first thing my hubby said as we watched the episode is that the writing for the show was awesome. I agree, it is so good. I only get to see bits and pieces and they are hilarious, but the whole thing together is INCREDIBLE!! We took a quick break and then started episode 4. Oh my goodness, LOVE IT!! This episode is really good and let's just say there is a bug going around it makes it really funny to see what happens next!! At the very end I was like WOW!!! Man this show is just so good as a whole that ... man I can't even think of the words. Then when I got home from the preview I got home I got a phone call from Kyle (director from "The Favor") he wanted to let me know that I got the part. Man I was on so excited!! I was having the best last couple days. Then I finally got to sleep after being up for more than 36 hours. Waking up the next morning was rough but I had a lot to do. I had an audition for a print job for Frito Lay and then I had my premiere of "Pros and Cons.." were I was first an extra and then got bumped up to a part with a line. My bulldog also got to be in the film. I had to clean the house really good cause the next couple days are going to be busy again. The audition was jam packed with people. I waited for an hour and half before they took four different pictures. We will see what happens, the shoot day is either the 26th or 27th. Today I have been doing family stuff and also wanted to catch up on my blog while I wasn't crazy busy. Tomorrow I have a photo shoot with a really good friend who is going to get me a new type of headshot and a really good bodyshot. Then I have some meeting in the afternoon with some other actors and my manager. I have a meeting with the crew and cast of the music video that I am lead in this Fri. Sat. have an audition for "The Reckoning" for two different parts. Also have acting class if I can get to it. I have also checked the usual spots and submitted to several different projects in the area. Tip for the last couple day is this, I am taking this one from my audition. If you mess up during an audition make sure and not let it mess you up or break character, if you just keep on going and not let affect you. When I used the word "Safety" instead of "Safe" I was sure I messed up but I didn't break character and after I was myself and chatted with them. This is going to be a fun part and I am glad that I didn't let my little slip affect me. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

What's to come

Today is Fri. and it is prep time for all that is to come the next couple days. First off I have an audition in the morning tomorrow for an independent film called "The Favor" and then will be "The Good Guys" don't know time yet cause they are shooting right now and that usually means the next day will have a late call time. Also I have been told by some reliable sources that it will be an all-nighter. This is going to be fun. Then on Sun. am going to go out had a special invite that I couldn't and didn't want to say "no" to. Trust me it is one of those secret things that is INCREDIBLE!!! Then Mon. audition for a print job and then later in evening premiere of "Pros and Cons: A Fantasy Football Movie" at the Angelika for the USA Film Festival. Wed. I am going to get some new pictures done by a really good friend of mine who is an awesome photographer. Then Fri. is going to be the first meeting for the music video, "Secret Affair", that I will be the lead in. Then Sat. another audition for an independent film called "The Reckoning", where I will be audition for two different parts depending on which one they see fits me best. Didn't find any new projects and received some feedback on a part that I submitted for. Let's see what should be the tip of the day be....really all I can think of is to just get out there and get in the middle of all the action. Audition, go to events, volunteer to be on projects, it may sound weird but a lot of what I has been from referrals and word of mouth. People will remember you if you show them that you are a dedicated actor and have the motivation and determination to succeed. I probably wont be blogging tomorrow well because I will be gone all day. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Update on Stuff

Well it has been a couple of days. First off Mon. was a good day I found out that I maybe working on "The Good Guys" but have to call on Thurs. And I saw the new trailer for my film that I was lead in "Broken Seconds", check it out here http://www.vimeo.com/11604997 it truly is awesome!! Then I was preparing for "The Fun Room" that was going to be filming of Tues. which got cancelled and moved now all of the scheduled to the 29th of May. So that gives me more time of preparation. So on Tues. I ended up going to the last day of my acting class for Tues. (They will be starting of Sat. and Thurs. ones so I can make-up the ones I missed). It was an awesome night. Ben, acting coach, gave us 4 a scene I was a therapist helping the crazies but there was a twist to it. He will be editing it soon and I will be posting it soon cause it was funny!! He also has another clip that he will be editing together and I will be getting. Another one that was improv and hilarious!! I was a like a military personal and really crazy dialogue came out of my mouth while doing it!! Ben has really pushed my limits everytime I go to acting class. This was my second time threw and will be doing a third time. That brings me to my tip of the last couple days take acting classes and make sure that the instructor is pushing you to your limits so you can grow as an actor!!! Also got some really cool news but can't say anything for awhile but trust me you guys are going to love it!!! So for now I have audition early on Sat. morning and probably "The Good Guys" right after that. Then next Mon. will be the premiere of "Pros and Cons: A Fantasy Football Movie" which I had a speaking line and my bulldog Sassy with me. Also over the last couple of days have sent out for about 7 projects from all over. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Happy Mother's Day

Well let's catch up on what has been going on. Submitted to several projects over the last couple days. On Thurs. got a txt to go have a meeting with the casting director and assistant casting director of a feature film that I am looking to getting a lead part. The meeting was really cool and they both were really nice. They said I should be hearing from them by this coming Wed. So finger-crossed on that one. Then had an audition on Sat. which was really awesome and I would love to be a part of that film. I was going for the lead role on that one as well and it was a feature film that sounds really incredible to me. Then today has been good got to sleep in (really sleep in I mean 10:30am) for Mother's Day and then made breakfast with my 3 little ones. Really a lot of fun. Also got some new pictures for my website that I added to my "Projects Working On" and "Tips" pages. Also found out that a film I was in "Pros and Cons: A Fantasy Football Story" will be premiering at the USA Film Festival here in Dallas. I added all the info. on home page of my website to obtaining tickets. Check it all out on www.jenniferbesser.com. Also "The Fun Room" Filming got moved to Tues. so I will be doing that then. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Awesome Day

Today has been an awesome day!! First kidos slept in which is always a great way to start the day. Then my hubby, Todd, ended up getting the day off and brought me home flowers as an early Mother's Day present. Got the house some what squared away since I have quit a bit of stuff going on this weekend. Starting on Fri. night have some family stuff going on then on Sat. have an audition for a independent feature film called "The Shed" it's a sci-fi/horror film. Then on Sun. (which I just realized is Mother's Day) I have a really long day of filming of "The Fun Room", this day is going to be the torture scenes and were I get to be working with special effects again, it's going to be fun. Going to find out Fri. if will be needed on "The Good Guys", it is so fun when I get to go hang out with the gang on that show. Checked the usual places and sent my information out to five different projects in the area. Also got some more information on the music video that I will be playing the lead in. Looks like will be having a meeting on what locations, listen to the music, and come up with a game plan for the filming of the video. I am excited to do a music video since I have yet to do one it will be a learning experience for me. Oh there is the tip of the day, try many different types of acting to build and stretch yourself as an actor. Always push forward to your goals and believe in yourself. In this business there are a lot of "no's" but you must not let that ever make you give up on your dream. Just like Babe Ruth was famous for his home runs but also for the number of strike outs!!! It didn't stop him and it wont stop me (and I hope not you either). So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

"The Good Guys"

Wow, what a day!!! It was an early call time 6:30 am. That was a little rough since I just had an early 3 am call time for "Tips" the night before. When I got there I found out that I not only were playing my usual CSI, I was also going to be a Bank Customer. It was really cool as we were preparing to go to set the 2nd AD did a read threw of what the scene was...funny stuff. Let's just say they are sitting in front of a bank when they notice something. I got a lot of walking in which is good because it was a very long day and I wouldn't be able to work out. I got to see Bradley Whitford (Dan) and Colin Hanks (Jack) do a little rough housing in their awesome Trans Am, was walking right next to the car. Then we changed sides of the street which was really fun in downtown Dallas and begun lots and lots of walking. It was cool cause I actually got to meet some really cool people, 3 of them were from FOX affiliated things. One Natalie she works for TV Guide and she was really cool, she was first a pedistrain and then got to dress up as a cop. She was super excited, it was cool a couple people thought we were sisters cause we kinda looked a like. Then I met Chris who is the host of FOX ALL ACCESS, a radio show and also on the web (check it out www.foxallaccess.com) he was really cool he also got to dress up as a cop. And Bill was from Seattle and he was with FOX affiliated he was very cool, also be a cop. It was cool they ended up getting to be right smack in the middle of all the action. The once I was in my CSI outfit (man I felt better when I was in my outfit) I got to see some stuff go down at the bank. With my new friends right in the middle of it. I got to chat with Diana (Lt. Ruiz) a little bit, she is so nice she gave me a hug and asked about my birthday. She had tweeted a "Happy Birthday" to me on my birthday. She is such an awesome lady and I learn more and more from her with the time I get to spend around her. Then we had lunch which was like always incredible. And they set up and shot another scene where they didn't need any extras, so it was time to wait. And let me tell you the sleepiness was starting to set in but before I could really give in the PA called me and said to get ready!! So I was wide awake again. I was excited cause it was time to investigate. Can't say much but we were in a small apartment with 2 CSI, 2 cops, 2 detectives, 2 paramadics, Jack, and a coroner(huh). I will let you all stew on that, hehe. It was very cool this time I actually got to lift some finger prints and some dusting with the finger print powder. It was an 13 hour day but it was a blast. This blog is actually being done the following day because when I got home I was exhausted and could function enough to get this all out. I found out some really cool news about a project that I am interested in, also got some information about being an extra in some feature films being shoot here in Texas, which I will be submitting myself to. Hope everyone enjoys this and looking forward to the preview of "The Good Guys" on the 19th of this month. I can't believe it is coming up so quickly. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

"Tips"

Today was re-shooting of one of my scenes for "Tips". It was cool to be working with them again. It was funny to that the guy playing oppose me shaved and had different clothes we ended up shooting some more of the scene than first anticipated. I think it turned out better than the first time for sure. So I am wrapped on "Tips" again and the rest of it should wrap this next weekend. That would be good cause there are a lot of festivals that have due dates at the beginning of June. I also got to talk with the guy, Nic, who is putting the music video together that I will be playing the lead in. He told me it will still be several weeks that they are scouting locations and making sure everyone is well informed of what is going on before we start shooting which is cool. I am excited to say that I will be working on "The Good Guys" tomorrow as CSI. Yeah!! Also found out that it is not only at a location but also an EARLY call time!! Love when I get to go on location cause that means I get to investigate something, which is always cool. So I will be blogging tomorrow about what was happening. Found a couple projects that I submitted for, just a few independents that are shooting here in Dallas. So for now we will see what tomorrow will bring.

Cool Day

Well today was a very cool day. It was the day that I got my jaw/face cast. It was really cool it was the first time that I have ever done anything like that before. Shelly is an incredible special effects make-up artist. It was really weird no being able to talk or more my face for like 15-20 mins. Completely black, it was different to be in my mind and blocking out everything out. I posted some really cool pictures on my website, www.jenniferbesser.com, check them out and let me know what you think. Or if you have any questions about what it was like. I checked my usual spots to find some new projects and find several that I will be submitting. I am looking forward to this Sun. for the re-shoot of "Tips" scenes that I was in. Then on Mon. will be "The Good Guys", Yes!!! I can't wait to see what they guys are up to, and of course see Diana be the head lady in charge!! So for now we will see what tomorrow brings!!

Good Days

Well it has been awhile since I blogged so I will try and catch up with all that has been going on. Well I just checked and the last time I blogged was on the 22nd, lots have gone on. First off my birthday was on the 25th and it was a blast. I have found out that I am having to re-shoot some of "Tips" this Sun. another 3am call time. Also found out that I was going to work Wed. (which later got moved to Fri.) on "The Good Guys". I love it when I get to go work on "The Good Guys" cause you never know what is going to happen and you will definitely be laughing (which is great for anyone). Then I also got a hold of my brother that lives in Calif. and found out that he is working as crew on commercials in Los Angeles. He said that he has even acted in 3 of them. I told him about my website cause I wanted his opinion since he is out in LA and he sees talent out there. I also asked him if I could crash at his place when I got out there to audition for stuff. He told me yeah but he is about 90 some miles away from LA. Well that is closer than were I am, ;). Also have been checking the normal places and haven't found much. I also got an invite to an audition coming up on May 22. So starting next Sat.(the 8th) I will be auditioning every Sat. for a new project. I am wanting to fill my schedule back up!! Here's to hoping that I do!! I am also going to be starting work on "The Fun Room" which is a horror film, let's just say I get my jaw broken!!! So I will be make sure an blog every day again, I have been working out like crazy to get in extra fit shape for a part that I am wanting to go out for. O'yeah I forgot I also landed the lead in a music video!! It is going to be a fun shoot, it has an awesome concept and music!!! So I think that is all for now, so for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

"The Good Guys"

Today was an early call time and on location. It was another day of re-shoots for another episode. Today was a day that I wasn't there before so I got to see another part of an episode that I was in already. I got to walk right in front of the cameras when they were filming the scene so it will have been really quick. Then what was really funny is one of the camera guys (he handles the steady camera and is incredible), Kenji, and told me I should get an Emmy for walking by. He said he could see my blonde hair flash by really quickly. He was funny. Then we were done just like that, it was one of the shortest days I have ever had on a set. I was a little excited cause that means I was able to make an audition that I wasn't sure I would be able to make and low and behold I was able to make it. I also did some networking with some other actors at the audition which was really cool. When I got there I knew the guy who was putting it on (I had worked with him before and also auditioned for him before). It was cool to see him again, he told me he thought I fit a different part better so he had me read for that one instead of what I was originally going for. I also ended up helping out with the actual audition by reading some of the parts for some of the other characters. It was really cool. Which leads me to the tip of the day. Make sure you as an actor (if you are new to the craft) is going out and meeting as many people in the business as possible. Not only on paying gigs (don't get me wrong are nice) but the none pay, because the people doing the non-paid stuff end up doing the paid stuff. And if you make a good enough impression than you will be remember and they will call or email you when they need someone. I have a friend who is an incredible guy who not only is an awesome photographer but also makes music, writes films, and now directing. I meet him almost a year ago and worked on two different projects (deferred pay) and now I recently finished working as a supporting role in a short film him wrote, and he has asked me play the lead in the feature film that he is writing. Connections and networking is HUGE in this business. Checked the normal spots and didn't find any new projects in the area but did get some interesting news about some stuff coming up. Will let you guys know when I can give more information on it. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Good Day

Well today was another day of working out and getting more energized to start new projects coming up. I looked and didn't find anything on the usual spots and there were no new projects. Found out that I have an early call time and will be on location for "The Good Guys" tomorrow. I love it when we are location because they are always doing some crazy stuff. And then I get to go and investigate, I have been fortunate enough so far to be placed in some really good spots during filming. Fingers-crossed that I am in a good spot again. Don't really have a tip for today, so for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Good Day

Today has been a really good day. First I did some reading which is fun! After all of my projects winding down for a little until my next one starts on Apr. 30th, I figured I need to reconnect with my nutrition and my workout plan. Today was an awesome day for it I actually feel more rejuvenated than I have in a while. I went on a 45 min jog/speedwalk and then my P90X chest and back DVD. Then I did some house work which is an everyday thing if I am not working on something. I am gearing up for my projects that are coming up along with my auditions that are coming in May, so far I am up to 3 auditions. That will fill my schedule back up if I land those. I was confirmed to work on "The Good Guys" on Thurs. as CSI. I am excited I was told there will only be two of that day. It always makes me wonder if we will be on set or on location. I hope Diana will be there, she wasn't there the last time I was. We will see. As for looking for more projects I found one that was local that I submitted to. Tip of the day is not to forget about taking the time to connect with yourself. It not only helps your mood but will also help your acting in the long run. The better you know yourself the more you know what you'll be able to do. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

"Broken Seconds"

Today was the last day of filming of "Broken Seconds" and let me tell you it was intense!! First Todd (my husband in real life and in the film) and I did all the scenes with Walt (who played our son Dylan). It was fun again to work with him again. He did really good for a 8 yr old and his first film. Then it was on to some scenes where they were just filming my face for an opening shot and I was to look like I was thinking about what I was about to do. I hope I pulled it off (fingers-crossed). Then it was another scene where I was struggling with the decision I was about to make and carry out. So emotionally I was up when doing scenes with Walt and then I had to dig and find sadness and struggle with-in myself and portray it while looking real. Then was the very last scene of shooting for "Broken Seconds" and it was definitely the most emotion driven one that I have done so far. It was a fight scene between Todd and myself. The director (Mohammad, the DP (Matt), and even Todd was surprised how far I dug into that scene. It to me was very intense and one of my favorites. I really pushed myself to the extent of my emotions and it was awesome. It will premiere at UNT but will be put in to the Angelik here in Dallas for several showings. Then I have been told that it will be headed to San Fransisco and Austin for Festivals. Also Mohammad will be submitting it to Sundance, Tribeca, and Dabi. And all other festivals that he can find. We are going to take the festival world by storm with this film. Tip for today came from working on set today. And it has to do with wardrobe. Always bring all clothes that you have worn on film and others just in case something needs to be re-shoot or something. Even if someone tells you don't need anything else ALWAYS BRING JUST IN CASE!! So that is my tip for the day. Checked the usual spots for more projects and found a couple different things. Nothing local but did find several feature films that I am submitting for (HILLBILLY HIGHWAY, BLACK MAGICK, PREMIUM RUSH, AND HELP SPREAD ME GOODNESS). We will see what happens with these, also found out there is a search for new actors that will be Lead in a feature film (called PROJECT X). Not a lot to go on but I will be submitting to that one along with the others. Looking forward to many more projects coming my way and always looking to were I am headed. I have this deep desire to succeed in my venture as an actress, it feels like this is what I am to do and what I was meant for. So I am not stopping or slowing down in my pursuit of this dream. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

"Broken Seconds"

Today was another day of filming of "Broken Seconds". Today was the lake scene with Walt who played my son, Dylan. It was a fun shoot but it got a little damp when it drizzled on us, but we ending up waiting in our cars and warmed up and warm up cause it was a little cold. It was both a scene where I got to work on emotions starting out by being sad for what I was doing and then somewhat happy playing with him. I also was able to finally finish my voice over work on "Lewis" it was fun to finally check that one off the list of projects working on. Tomorrow is suppose to be the last day of filming for "Broken Seconds" and is going to be definitely the toughest and most rewarding. I found out that I have to re-shoot some of the work that was done on "Tips" which we are suppose to do as soon as everyone can figure out there schedule. I am also going to be starting a new project called "The Fun Room" its a horror, on April 30th. A very intense film and will be interesting. I checked the usual spots and didn't find any new projects to submit for. So tomorrow is going to be fun and interesting, will blog about it. Playing opposite my husband Todd and we have a fight so this we will see what happens. Can't think of any tips today, will be thinking hard of one for tomorrow. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Good Days

Thurs. was a rest day for me I didn't do much but rest and play with kids. I did though look at my script for "Broken Seconds". I know by heart but I always like to keep working on it to make sure I give my all. We are to finish the remaining two shoot days as long as it doesn't rain on us. Looking forward to tomorrow and doing the lake scene with Walt. Then will be the majority of my scene which are in the apartment and they are also going to be very strong and emotional scenes. Today I have been cleaning house and catching up with some of my favorite t.v. shows. It is always good to watch and learn from t.v. shows and movies. I learned that one from acting class, watching different angles, how actors use pauses, and so many different things. Hey there is my tip sometimes watch stuff to learn not just watch. I looked and found several projects that I submitted for one that I emailed and one that I am going to fax in. So not to bad a day. So next couple days are going to be fun with the filming of "Broken Seconds". Looks like next week may work on "The Good Guys" on Thurs. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

"The Good Guys"

Well today was filming of "The Good Guys" on location. Always a good day when we are on location because that means its a crime scene to investigate. When I got there it was very cool and found out that there pryotechnics on the set. Love when I hear those words. Well today was also good because there were tons of awesome classic muscle cars. This is going to be another awesome episode. Let's just say there is someone bad in the department and Jack (Colin Hanks) gets stuck in the middle. The scene today was fun cause I was able to be right next to Jack (Colin) and Dan (Bradley) while they were doing there scene. And then Liz (Jenny Wade) came up and finished off the scene. I was in the background and next to them like the whole time. I am excited to see if I will be seen, but have to wait and see how it gets edited. There was several new characters today on set. One was a guy called Nigel (Steve Valentine, really cool guy) and I got to talk with him some and he to was also very funny. He had an awesome accent, can't wait for you all to see it!! Then I also got to cut across behind Jack and Dan Trans Am as Bradley was driving away after finishing scene. I think Bradley really likes to drive the Trans Am fast. With all the explosions, gunfire, and classic muscle cars this is going to be a show you wont want to miss. I did get a chance to send off my information so that is good. Checked the usual places to find projects and didn't find any new projects. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Good Day

Well today has been a good day. I now have a working printer so that will make it easier to print resumes and cover letters for when I need to send out my information to casting directors. Also worked on "Broken Seconds" again I am so thrilled that we have 2 more days and looking forward to seeing it about mid May. YEAH!!! Also saw a new trailer for my first film I did called "Grim" which I really enjoyed seeing and it just makes me go get the movie and watch it again. I added it to my website, www.jenniferbesser.com so check it out and let me know. It has both trailers of the film on there. Also I was told it was going to go to some festivals so I am crossing my fingers on that. I wasn't able to make acting class tonight cause I wasn't feeling very good and I didn't want to push it with having "The Good Guys" tomorrow. Which I hear from my sources that it will be an early call time. So another reason for the early blog. Also added some auditions to my website for projects that I sent my information I sent out. Checked the usual places and didn't find any new projects. Also I checked my IMDb and I have more credits which is very cool!! Check them out www.imdb.com/name/nm3461570. I also put together my comp card and resume to send for "The Lincoln Lawyer" film which I will send hopefully sometime tomorrow if I get the time. So tip of the day it is always a good idea to do at least one thing a day working on your craft, even if it is just doing your slate or reading a script. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

Great Day

Today has been a great day. First off my kids slept in which meant I got to sleep in (let me tell you which is rare). Then I worked on script for "Broken Seconds" for upcoming filming of last two days of filming this Sat. and Sun. I also found out today that I will be working on "The Good Guys" on Wed. as CSI. I get so excited to think what they will have us doing now. Cause on that show you can never tell until it you show up and see what is happening. Also talked with Mohammad about a video that he uploaded to the "Broken Seconds" fan page on facebook. He told me that he has gotten a huge response from it already. He even had a guy from Germany that deals in theater stuff and was very interested in see it. Also some he said he has had several people calling from San Fransisco and several other places inquiring about seeing the film. He is expecting to have it finished in time to submit to a festival in Austin and San Fransisco. Then he wants to submit it to Sundance which will be huge, even Tribeca next year and also an international festival. Talk about really excited about this project. It looks like it is getting a lot of attention. I am a little nervous though. But I also feel like this film will be the next "Slumdog Millionaire"!!! The story is incredible and it is going to be awesome to see how it comes together. Didn't find any new projects that I could submit for. Acting class tomorrow night which should fun and then Wed. "The Good Guys", Yeah!! So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

"Broken Seconds"

Saturday was filming of "Broken Seconds" road scenes. It was a early morning call time which is cool, I was excited about this day because we not only were filming inside my car scenes that I was talking to my son Dylan (Walt is real name of kid). Which was fun this is one of the days were I had an emotional melt down. To my surprise when we got to the location Mohammad told me we were doing the break down scene first which I wasn't expecting. So I had to focus and get in to the mood and temperment of what my character was thinking. Mohammad told me what he was wanting and what he was looking for and told me to role with it. He is a very cool director to work with. It was a very emotionally draining day. I do enjoy pushing myself to the limits of my range of emotions. Mohammad told me he loved what he saw and can't wait to see it on the video. He also showed me the new poster for the film which is awesome. It doesn't have names on it yet but it is cool looking. I put it up on my website www.jenniferbesser.com on the "Broken Seconds" page. As far as today is concerned today has been an awesome day. Two of my films that I was in are now posted on IMDb "Pros and Cons: A Fantasy Football Story" and "Prodigal Son". How very cool is that I am now going to have 3 films on IMDb and "The Good Guys" (5 episodes) and "The Deep End" (2 episodes) on there. Which is good because that is what a lot of industry professional look at so I am glad to finally have stuff on there not just my resume that I added. Let me think of what the tip of the day should be, since I am talking about IMDb I might as throw my two cents in about it. As far as joining IMDbPro it is a good idea for any actor. It not only shows that you are taking the first step in getting your information out there but they have casting calls on there for many different projects which is a good source to find jobs. So invest in your future and get IMDbPro. So I checked the usual spots and found 2 projects that are going to be filming here in the area and I sent emails with my information. Looking forward to this week and then this weekend ("Broken Seconds" filming both Sat. and Sun.). So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

"The Good Guys"

Great day today!! I was on set of "The Good Guys" today and we were finishing off some re-shoot for an episode. It was very cool because first off I got there and I ate a little something. I was checking my txt messages and I noticed Matt Nix the creator of "The Good Guys" and "Burn Notice" was going threw the line to get some food. And he was leaving and walking my general direction when he asked me are you the CSI that works all the shifts. I laughed and smiled (honestly I was a little nervous to talk with him) I said yes I really like it here and I like to help out. Then I was worried and asked is that a bad thing, am I to noticeable. And he laughed and said no its a good thing, and must be getting good over time (as CSI). I smiled and said "I am a dedicated CSI". He was so nice and very cool. I have seen him on set many times and I really like how he works. I can see how he can create all that he has done. Then it was time to get to work. It was a long scene and a continuous one. This time though the wanted me to do a suicide pass (that is were you cross right in front of the camera as it moves). It was cool I not only had to watch the camera but I also had to time my walk perfectly with Colin and Diana's move. As they walked out of the position one I was to quickly walk behind them right in front of camera before it would follow them. It was fun we did that several times and then they did the reverse and I just had to walk behind them and go opposite they were going and go down the hallway till they were done. That we did several times as well not as hard as the first one. Colin and Diana had several stopping positions so after they moved from one and I was out of the shoot I had down time. So today really was a short day but a very fun one. Colin was funny he got one of the PA to take a picture of him in the jail cell. He also would make faces and right before shooting. He would also do a voice impressions of one the slate guys who has a very deep voice (almost like Barry White). Very Funny to watch and listen to. Diana rocked it as usual, I also got to talk with her again and wish her a good weekend and she told me "to do the same and see you next week". So all and all a very good day. I have checked the usual spots and not much. I did hear some stuff on the set today that I can't really say to much but it may turn out good. As for my tip of the day I don't know if everyone knew what a suicide pass was so I hope that has help some of you all. It is always good to learn set language, so you know what they mean. Tomorrow is "Broken Seconds", very excited going to be a emotional day. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.
