Update

Hello, everyone hope you have been great. It has been 10 days since my last blog. So many things have gone on since then. First the filming for "Shattered Reflections" got moved to Mon. May 2nd., so I have yet to film that which I can't wait to do. Also been working on my 2 films that I have been letting rest until now so I can have a fresh perspective. There is also great news on the film (HMW (working title)) there has been talk with the producers and they love me and won't do the project without me!! Wow!! I feel so blessed. My birthday was yesterday and my hubby and kids made it incredible. Also all of my friends in the acting industry were so nice wishing me Happy Birthday!! I think I had over 60 people say something to me on my birthday. Tomorrow I have the pleasure of being on the new t.v. show filming here, the new 'Dallas'. I can't wait to be on this project. I have been fortunate enough to be put on the list as a possible ranch hand, just have to wait and see if the director likes my look. Fingers crossed!! I was raised on a ranch and used to train and raise horses so I am totally able to do it. Will let you all know if it happens but for now I'm going to be there tomorrow. I've checked the usual spots and have been sending my information out. I have recently also sent my headshot and resume to two feature films. One is for a film called "Transfer" the part I went for is for a college student who is big boned and was raised on a farm. I fit that one to a tee. The other one is for "American Reunion" (which is another installment of "American Pie". The part is a former popular skinny girl who gains a lot of weight. So another role that I fit to a tee. I recently also sent a txt to the director/writer of 'Morning in America' about a genre/role that I would like to play. I asked him if he was truly interested in writing me a part I would very much like to do either a scary film with me as a heroine or a mystery spy genre. I have always liked 'Alias' and those kind of shows. I also love scary films as well. I am also working very hard on the Mini Film Festival and getting it put together, thankfully I have a good friend, Molly who has decided to help me. I have made an application for films submitting this year. It is so much fun to be planning this event and looking forward to see many new films. Also been updating my website and working on my demo reel, check it out at www.jenniferbesser.com. That is about it for now. So for now we shall see what tomorrow brings.

Projects that are done and more to come

I have finished filming all my scenes for the film 'Morning in America'. We filmed on this past Mon. Apr. 12th and let me tell you it was awesome. The director, William Wasson, was listening to me and Tom (Walter character's name) and he said that I did it so well that he felt like I did because of my intensity. How cool!! Than he also told me that he would like to write a film for me, he told me to pick a character or genre that I would like to do and he would write it. AWESOME!!! Looks like I may have another project very soon that will be written for me as a lead and the character will have some of my personality in it. I have lately been working on my lines for 'Shattered Reflections' which will be filming this Mon. Apr. 18th. It will be fun I will be reuniting with some friends that I worked with on 'The Good Guys'. Exciting!!! Posting pictures and other things for my upcoming projects on website. Also I have been working on updating my demo reel which is a good thing to do once a year or when ever you get a lot of new footage. Checking and submitting to the usual places. So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

What's going on...

Wow it has been awhile but I will be on here everyday now because I now have internet at home again. Ok let me see what have I been up to since the last time I blogged. Let's see I have now gone from the bad lady on the 'Chuck' spoof to the boss of the agency. I already finished filming 'Art of Crime' which was a short that I was playing a reporter Paula Greene. I will be filming 'Morning in America' on the 12th of this month. This film is a very controversial film about tea party stuff and I'm playing one of the more controversial parts, which is something I always like to do. Then the next project I will be filming is 'Shattered Reflections' where I play Jackie, this is a very interesting film as well, emotional. Now about a very important role and project that I am working on, it is a new feature film that I will be the lead in. Unfortunately I can't tell you all the details but I can tell you that this is a Psychological Thiller that will change the way you see horror. It will make you check you locks twice and always check to make sure you are alone. And if your a mom you will be scare out of your mind. I know I am a mom and it really scares me. I am working with two incredible boys Gavin and Aidan. I am making a page on my website with pictures. We just shoot the promo for it and I will tell you it was incredible. First we shoot the scene with two boys, then it was just me and let me tell you while I was doing my scene you could almost hear a pin drop because everyone was so into what I was doing that they were stunned silent. We are sending the promo (once edited) and finished script to production companies. I mean the first 5 mins of this movie will be leaving people wondering what's next. Will tell you more once I can about this project. Now on to other things that I have been up to. Got my new picture from Page Parks, the pictures that were taken during my trip to Houston for the makeover and acting camp. They look good and are different from any pictures that I have which is great. Also I worked on another new tv show that is filming here in Dallas it's called 'GCB' it is based on the book 'Good Christian Bitches' I was in the pilot twice, it should air on ABC. Just want to tell you all it looks great and very funny. Now on to my other project, I have written two feature films a part 1 and part 2. It is a romance with some twist and turns. I finished them and soon going to be submitting it to producers and investors. I got help from the writer/director of 'Broken Seconds' Mohammad A. Mohammad (who is also the same writer/director of my new project that I can't tell you about), he really likes it and with his help I think this will be the romance that will change how people see romance movies. I can't wait to start pre-production on it and then of course filming. With both huge projects I'm working on Mohammad's feature film and my 2 feature films (saving name until I get in pre-production),not only will I be working with Mohammad as the director but also the incredible DP from 'Broken Seconds' Matt Stocks will be DP on both projects. Matt has a way of finding the most incredible angles. Mohammad is an incredible director and has helped me grow as an actress. I think that is all for now. Don't forget to check out my website www.jenniferbesser.com to see the new content. Also if you are a filmmaker than don't forget to check out the 2nd Annual Mini Film Festival because we are now accepting submissions. So for now we will see what tomorrow will bring.
