Too much good stuff...

So, Crispin's workshop was awesome. Figured out some more interesting things about my acting biases and other similar things. Not much to say about that other than it was an awesome learning experience that I'll probably be repeating some time.

Monday I found out that I was cast in two plays at Cal State Fullerton. This is very exciting news for me, and I'm really looking forward to working with the 2 directors for "Momma's Boy" and "Playthings." Keep eyes open for more info on that in the future.

The big news today? I'm freaking out. Why am I freaking out? Because I just bought myself a 17" MacBook Pro. Yes, this is at once a career move and an educational one. I needed a new computer, and a lot of things are moving in the Mac direction. Especially since my audio production class is using ProTools LE. It's more convenient for me if I can use my own computer to organize everything.

But, that doesn't mean I can't still cry. Bye bye money!

Clip to the right is a new one. I play the creepy guy, Izaya. :)

18 Days Later...

No, it's not the title of the next big zombie/infected movie. That's just how long I've been so busy that I've been unable to update.

So, short and sweet: the lesson went AMAZINGLY. I really appreciate all that my exceptional coach worked with me through. I learned a lot about myself as an actor and how I think subconsciously when I act, so I will be working on that. Next time I see this person I will be asking them if they feel I'm ready to shell out the $1.2k to make my professional demo.

Last week was hectic for me. I tried out for Cal State Fullerton's One Acts and 10-minute Plays, and I ended up garnishing 11 callbacks. 10 of those were last week, and one is today. I also find out the results from last weeks callbacks today, so fingers crossed for that one.

Also last week, I was sort-of-officially cast in a visual novel. It is a fan-made VN that explores the life of Alan when he is transferred to an alternate dimension. Namely, the world of Haruhi Suzumiya. And ironically, the game is titled Worlds of Haruhi Suzumiya. You can find out more information at http://wohs-project.org/. Your's truly will be playing the role of Itsuki Koizumi, so keep an ear out. ^_^

Clip to the right is the second of the Fairy Tail clips I've been involved with. I play the pink-haired Natsu, as well as some of the background characters. See if you can spot my voice! XD

This weekend I will be attending Crispin Freeman's Character Archetype class. This will hopefully help me with expanding and discovering the full range of characters I have under my belt.

Speaking of Crispin, tune in to Hearing Voices on Monday at 4:30 PM PST to catch my interview with him! He'll be joining me via Skype, and I've got quite the interview planned. Check it out at http://tir.fullerton.edu!

And that's all for now! Hope you are all doing well. :)
