Zoom Callback

 Had a great callback for the commercial today. It was through Lauren Charkow Casting out of NYC. Jordan was a lovely greeter in the waiting room and the audition consisted of a casting agent, Becky, and the director. He gave me several line reads and different directions for each so it was a lot of fun.
Stoked for the callback, now let's get to booking!

 Lots of Updates.
Moved back to Virginia to be more help to my mom and thus I'm starting again in this city that I left 20 years ago for adventures in NY & LA. I do love this city and every change is a chance for new adventures so here goes.

I reconnected with my agent in the town and have been submitting myself for various things for them weekly. All just photo submissions.
Till this past weekend, when I got to record my first acting audition for a tv spot. It was a really fun character role and I wore the outfit my incredible stylist got me for one of my looks for my last hs session. It is an outfit that I would never wear in real life, who are we kidding...i wear a blanket moo moo all the time in real life.... I mean... It is COLD here. I just moved from LA. So I will be wearing a blanket moo moo every day all day until the warm weather makes its appearance.

This was the first time that I've had to do all of the set up and recording all by myself. I really miss my amazing neighbors in LA. They made auditioning a breeze. I played around with the lighting and tried to get the frame right. Lots of recording and running back and forth. 
I recorded the scene two times and did a little improv. Downloaded the footage and wasn't in love with the lighting but it was good enough. Upon inspection, I found I had lipstick on my teeth. HA! I debated changing and doing the recording again but really liked my delivery, so decided it was a character choice and sent the audition in on Sunday. Auditions were due at the end of the day on Monday.

EXCITING NEWS is that today (wed), I got a callback for the role! The callback is tomorrow on zoom so now I'm going to set up my studio so I will be ready. Very stoked to have gotten my first callback of the year on my first self tape of the year. Here is to many more callback and bookings in 2025! 
I'm really excited about this because this is the first self tape that I have submitted to my agent in VA, I feel it reads well to get a CB on it, so they know that I am ready to rock a set for them.
