Page Parkes Acting Camp!!

Sorry I haven't been on sooner but been away from a internet. Also was a little bummed that the hotel that I was staying at for the acting camp didn't have wifi. All I can say about the camp is WOW!!! Started on the Fri.the 21st at 9 am in Houston (which I got up at 2 am to drive down there) meet up at the hotel, got room keys then headed to the Page Parkes Center for Modeling and Acting. When we first got there we had orientation and then we took a tour. It was a very cool place. What I thought was really cool was that Page.713 was right across the hall. We got to go and check it out. Then it we were divided up into 2 groups and I was in group A. First it was make over time. When I got there it was hair color changing time and hair cut. I am now a really DIRTY DIRTY blonde. I loved my hairstylist Tane (he was also Page Parkes hairstylist). I also got to meet and shake Page's hand. She is a very cool lady. Also during that I had my eyebrows threaded!! OUCH!! The weirdest sensation ever!! After make over was time for lunch. Then Photoposing class with an incredible lady who has been in the business a long time, Nickie. She was very fun and energetic. Then on to Acting class with Sara, very awesome lady. She was also funny!! I got some really great pointers on what they thought of my commercial that I was doing for my audition (which was on Sun.) to get into the agency. Actually I will be submitted to 2 different companies, Page.713 (Houston) and Page Parkes Management (Dallas). It would be cool to get into both, mostly Page.713 since it is the agency. After that it was time for dinner. Got to meet and hangout with some incredible people. Then it was back to the hotel for sleep before the big day of the photoshoot. Had to be in lobby at 8am for breakfast at hotel (the hotel's breakfast was delicious!!). Then it was off to the photographer's studio. We got to the studio and there were 2 makeup artists/hairstylist and 2 stylist!! Group A had Wendy and she was very cool. She airbrushed my face, which is a first for me. We had 3 different looks. First for make-up and hair it was all natural. I was a blank canvas that is to make it easier for casting directors to see what they have to work with. I was wearing my skinny jeans, a white dressy tank that had necklaces on it, and a pink jacket. Then for the second look just added very little make-up but hair got curled (it looked super cute). I was wearing blank dress pants, gray tank with black lace, and a black blazer. And last was really sophisticated make-up and hair (loved my hair, actually everything). In a like a plum colored dress with a black small jacket and black belt. It was so much fun but a very long day. It was to dinner than back to the hotel. When we got there I suggested that a couple of us practice in front of each other to help get pointers and to see if we were doing good. Again it was 8 am for breakfast (loved it!) but this time had to be completely packed and ready to go. I had to get my car out of packing so I had to be down there sooner than that. Then it was off to the Page Parkes Center for Modeling and Acting where it was off to skin care and make-up class. After that was Imrov!! (Love Improv) it was with Nickie and found out we would be doing a 2 person improv audition before our commercials. Than it was rehearsal time before the big time. I had a really cool girl as my partner in the improv audition part. Audition WENT INCREDIBLE!!! Then found out it will be 6 weeks before I find anything out if I got with Page.713 or even Page Parkes Management. Also that is when my new portfolio, negatives, CD, and all the other goodies will be coming in the mail. Then it was time to drive home and man did I miss my family. So all and all a really great and exciting weekend. I have still be submitting to several films in the area. Also worked on 'Chase' on Jan. 19th, got to play to different characters. Now it's a waiting game finding out if I got the agency I wanted. I will let you all know what I hear. So for now we shall see what tomorrow brings.

Audition for Creature Feature Film

\Today was the audition for the Creature Feature Film. It was an awesome audition. I got to see Adrian Santiago, a director that I had worked with on the project Grim. Which he remembered me, which is very cool. As I first auditioned I was channeling the wrong type of character and they told me what they were looking for. And I did as they asked. They seemed to like it. I was in the auditioning room for like 15 minutes, it was very cool. As I was leaving I asked how long until we know and she said it would be in the next couple days. I searched the usual spots and found a couple items that submitted to myself. We shall see but I have this feeling that it is that these is going to be an unforgettable year. So for now we shall see what tomorrow brings.

Great Day

Today has been a great day!! Today I found out that I will be going to Houston next weekend to go to Page Parks acting camp for not only some training but also a makeover, new headshots, and an audition with Page Parks to become represented by them. I am so excited. Page Parks has started so many big careers I believe I will be their next big name. (Positive thinking) I also have an audition tomorrow that I have been practicing for it is for a supporting role but I have worked with the director before and let's hope that bods well for me. I can't wait for next weekend and I will keep everyone informed on what is going on. Also I will post something on how audition goes tomorrow. Checked the usual spots and submitted to local projects. Worked more on my script and been working on other project (more details soon). So for now we will see what tomorrow brings.

It's a New Year!!

I know it has been a long time and one of my resolutions is to get on here more. I'm not sure if it will be everyday but I am going to try at least once a week. Since the last time I was on here many things have gone on. First I am going strong in the acting department, auditioning, and looking forward to upcoming projects. I have also started writing a script. It has really taken on a life on of it's own. It looks like it will be like Kill Bill (with two Volumes). Kill Bill was 220 pages and right now I am at 157. A regular feature film script is 95 + or - 3 pages. So I am now looking forward to how I am going to end the film. It is a romance but it has tons of twists and turns!! Not only that but I am working with a friend that I will be a lead in a feature film that he is doing!! We are really collaborating a lot on it. He is using me as a base for the character and then building on that. This year is going to be incredible. I think I have added a new thing to my making it big in this industry that I want to do. I want to start my own production company, I have watched a lot of "What it Takes' t.v. show and a lot of the actors that are really big have started their own production companies. This is going to be an incredible year!! So I think that is all for now and so I am going to be leaving with my usual saying. We will see what tomorrow brings!!
