So I finished filming my industrial. The director and crew were absolutely amazing and I couldn't ask for anything better. It was really low pressure and everyone was really nice. Taylor (my co-star) was such a sweetheart and I'm excited that he is getting married soon. Congrats Taylor!
I've been crazy busy with work, as my work decided to add on a temporary extra day shift since we're in the middle of a project, so it's been kind of hard to juggle two full time jobs (lots of overlap). Sadly because they're having me work on Mondays, I've temporarily stopped my acting class because it's too exhausting and stressful to do it all in one day.
Meanwhile I just signed up for krav maga classes (Isreali martial arts) with my good friend Sami and I'm in love. It's so empowering to know that I could defend myself if need be.
Tomorrow is a crazy day - 10am I'll be coaching for a major audition on Monday, then 1pm I'll be driving off to work until 4pm, back at home by 5pm and ready to work my second job from 6pm-midnight. Then it's an 8am wake up the next day for my other job. If I can I'll try to make it to church at 7pm (and leave work for a couple of hours). Whew...I'm exhausted just thinking about it.
Have a wonderful night lovelies.

One down, one to go
Whew! So I finished filming on Wednesday and it was an all around amazing day. I met my co-hosts and the crew and everyone was incredibly sweet. It felt pretty surreal to be sitting on the set, with the lights all around and three cameras, sitting next to such amazing people. I couldn't have asked for a better group.
I don't want to spill too many details about the show, but here's a fun story from set: one of my lines had the name "Gotti" in there. For whatever reason, I kept saying "Getty" instead of "Gotti" and I just couldn't get that line right! Take after take I would say "Getti" and would catch myself just afterward :) Fortunately everyone else found it funny so there was no pressure and it's now just a fun memory.
After we finished filming we had our photo shoot. It was so fun to stand there with my new friends and dance and play and be animated and loud. Then we got to do individual video shots and I just loved everything about it.
Overall it was such a great day and I'm excited to share the information with everyone else!
The last two weeks I had auditions for: Tosh.0, a mystery product, Secret Life of the American Teenager, and Music High (a feature film). Next week it's all about seeing if this pilot gets picked up and I'm filming my industrial! I just got done with rehearsing with the other person in the cast and we're both really excited about this.
Have a blessed weekend all!

Excited!
For those of you who don't know, I ended up booking the industrial. I'm so excited to be filming that next week. But first, I'm going to film my pilot tomorrow! I'm pretty thrilled and I'm praying it goes well (please go well!).
For the past three days I've been on the verge of tears just from being so overwhelmed by everything. Funnily enough, my acting class causes me more stress than anything else throughout the week. I keep thinking about trying another acting teacher because it's really stressing me out. Now that my acting class is done for another week (and possibly two) I'm super excited about my upcoming shoots!
Yay! And next week I film my industrial! Yay! And then I pray the pilot will get picked up and I can film on a regular basis :)

It's a GREAT day
So I'm getting ready to shoot my pilot for next week and the wardrobe stylist will be coming over to my place to help style me! I'm so excited; she's worked with all of the big names in Hollywood and now she will be helping me! Crazy!!
Then my agency just called and I'm on avail for an industrial I had auditioned for a couple of weeks ago. On avail means it's down to two people - hopefully I'll find out soon if I booked it or not. The pay is pretty low for an industrial (less than 1k) but they're REALLY nice people and if I book it, they said to set aside a night where they will take us out for dinner and introduce us to the campus so we can see what it's like. It sounds like so much fun!
Thank you Lord that I'm on my way to getting work.
So, so thankful.
