Tidbits

Once again a few weeks have passed without a post. I think I've been caught in a time warp with how fast it's been going by. Well, here's a recap...

• At the end of each semester, the Art's Sake school has an end-of-semester party and awards ceremony. I had the honor of receiving the Leaps And Bounds award. This award is voted on by the students for the person who made the biggest improvement over the semester. I am humbled and truly honored to have received it.
  
  
• I completed shooting The Roman, an 35mm short film by Alex Bornstein. I once again had the privilege of working with Robb Maus, who I truly admire.
  
  
• The Misguided, a short film by Chirs Seligmiller that I've been producing over the past year, is finally nearing completion. The rough cut is complete, and we are now waiting on the musical score as one of the final steps. I hope to have the film finalized by its one year anniversary (which is approaching fast).
  
  
• Phil Bache has been editing away on Untitled, and from what I've seen, it is looking great! I have very high expectations for this film, and I can't wait to see the final cut.
  
  
• The rough cut for Sodom and Gomorrah has been completed, and from what I hear, it looks really good - I am anxious to see it myself.
  

Well, that about sums it up for now, but stay tuned - there's more right around the corner!

Moving On

On a film set, when the director is satisfied with the current shot and is ready to proceed with the next shot, the term "moving on" is used. It represents a progression to the next step in the film, as in "we're finished here - we've done everything that we could on this step - let's move on to the next one."

I recently completed my scene study class with Yvonne Suhor. It was a rough time for a while, but at the end, I finally achieved a breakthrough with my scene development. And, as it turns out, I feel like I've completed a chapter in my epic acting saga. I've reached a new level to start building on - to start working toward my next progression.

My new class starts up in September, and I'm as ready as I've ever been.

Moving On!
