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.

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.
