Fake it ’til I make it
Whew! Friday night I spent over thirteen hours on the “Whip It” set; yesterday I had a fifteen hour shift there. My ass is — quite literally — bruised from sitting on plank benches filled with splinters and open staples. My ankles ache from hours of standing. But, it was still loads of fun. I really enjoyed watching the actors work and it was fascinating to see how the whole crew brings a scene together.
I’ve put in about 43 hours of paid work this month. That doesn’t count the constant search for new opportunities, so I’ve decided to try to find representation to help. I’ve started running into more and more people with agents and if I want a shot at speaking roles, I need to do the same.
This is all so new to me, but I guess I’ll learn as I go. Now, over to Photoshop to clean up the background on my amateur photos so they look more like professional headshots!
