It’s been slow.  Well, I can only really speak for myself.  But I’m sure most would agree– this last quarter was pretty slow.  Less work is being produced.  More film actors are moving to television.  Less roles for the majority of struggling actors.  Yeah we’ve heard it all. First of all, make sure you’re keeping yourself busy in the meantime. ... Read More

Stop Faking It

Comedy scares me more than anything.  Yet I’ve tested for numerous comedic roles on pilots.  Many times I’ve said, “Oh, I’m not really a comedic actor, so it doesn’t really matter that I didn’t get the role.  I didn’t really want it.”  Yeah right!  I wanted it.  Excuse excuse excuse. I haven’t really challenged my comedic... Read More

Harnessing the Qi

We possess the ability to reach out and touch someone or something, and each time we do so, the act of touching creates vibrations. Into the other person or out into the physical space around the actor. Each time those vibrations are dispelled, they inevitably shape an inexplicable essence. A tone.  What if we can control those vibrations to create a particular affect? Imagine... Read More

It’s Not Rocket Science

My dream was always to be an Olympic gymnastics champion.  This, of course, did not pan out, and somehow between the time I quit the sport at the age of 20 and the present time at the age of 27, I managed to become a rocket scientist.  Yes, I send satellites into space.  I studied astrodynamics in graduate school, and while there, I could only dream about getting the ideal job,... Read More
