Fragments of Fate

On Wednesday August 25, 2010 at 9:00AM my fiance and I arrived on the set of what would be our first debut as actors on the big screen, hopefully. It was amazing, we arrived there dressed nicely with only the hope of maybe being an extra and getting to help with the equipment. Somehow we ended up getting to do more. Rich Talarico the amazing director/actor/writer allowed us to have a scene with one of the talented actors in his film. To us it lasted for at least a half hour, in the film it will probably only be around three minutes tops depending on how they cut it together. We got to improv a whole scene for his new short film which was untitled as of the shooting. It was great! We were so pumped! During the takes and improvisation I actually made the other actor we were working with burst into laughter. All the other actors on set said that we were really hilarious and they just kept talking about the scene after! The one guy there, Jim Stevens who plays the manager of a bank wanted us to move out to L.A. and start going on auditions. He said to quote, "You have a very unique look about you and that scene was just hilarious." about me and us. Our plan is to eventually move out to L.A. and go on auditions and such, not to mention out in L.A. we will have a lot more access to our outlets for our talents. So that will be awesome, most def.
In any case I am currently still working on all my projects; "Masters of Fiction" I have one page done of the rough pencils and working on the second page, "Commercials" done with Act One and onto Act Two, "A Little Valentinus in your Samhain" currently on chapter Six. So still plugging away at everything!! More news sometime.

Work!Practice!Write!Draw!

Currently I am so slammed with a ton of work to do right now and it is really having an effect on me. I have tons of school work to do which includes; continuing to get good grades and stuff for graduation, nine more pages for my Children's book I am working on for Childs Ill, I have to do three finished illustrations for this book, a cover and two other illustrations, doing photos and research and all sorts of things for Figure illustration, and doing good enough at Science to keep a good grade, oh and doing projects well for Editorial as well. By the way I don't think I've done many awesome pieces that would be considered portfolio level which is not cool. Then I have my own side projects I'm trying to do like; writing a script for my comic I want to do, "Master's of Fiction" (which then I have to thumbnail, layout, pencil, ink and eventually color on the computer and publish through Lulu), do random pencilled pages for my comic portfolio and I offered to do a story and whole comic for this Indy anthology thingie so yeah....a bit too much on my plate per se.
But I guess this will all make me a better artist in the end. It is teaching me to not sleep so much, man that just holds you back...In anycase I hope to post some stuff up here soon but until then I will continue blogging.
