well, what I’m working on…
Good news this morning on a project I worked on earlier this year. The short film ‘State of Separation,’ starring the lovely Megan Sousa (and featuring a supporting appearance by your lovely narrator) will be shown at the Raindance Film Festival in London later this year. I don’t believe I’ll be able to attend […]
A year’s worth of great and not so great moments the first five months of 2012 for yours truly. I’m on the upswing right now though, so we’ll see how successful I am with another seven months to go… So I start my (and your) week off with this goodie as I push forward. […]
A lot going on right now. Some I’m hyped about but can’t talk about (yet) due to Confidentiality Agreements, other stuff I can at least ‘tease’ without revealing too much… A lot of what’s been happening lately has related to acting, and I love doing it, and as I’ve said before, that’s almost always the […]
For those of you who asked about my look in reference to yesterday’s post: The quote above is a famous Stella Adler quote about defining a character through what they wear.
So, I want to make my first feature length film… Step one, as is always the case, was creating the script. I caught parts of Clooney on the Actors Studio over the weekend, and I agree with his sentiment that you can take a good script and make a bad film out of it, […]
How about something fun for my last post of 2011? So 99 times out of 100 when I’m sent sides (an audition script), I can look at the product as a whole, look at where the character fits into the story, and build something from the ground up. But there was one screen test […]
A friend across the pond has passions similar to mine so when I got home tonight I shot a quick video promoting our mutual interests. You can see that below. The mustache I’m sporting for another week is for Movember; it’s certainly drawn attention to that cause. I guess at the moment I’m socially […]
B-man, What up? So kudos to you first for taking on the job on such short notice. You’ve got the pedigree the Academy likes, and at this point, I don’t think anyone has any expectations for next year’s show. So having said that, I think this year is the perfect opportunity to do something […]
The dark cloud that’s been hanging over my head the past two years has finally dissipated into a thunderstorm, so I can talk about it (a little). This morning, my only sibling started serving a maximum prison sentence. The details of who/what/when aren’t important to what I’m writing here. Besides that, the rumblings of a […]
The metrics I get back have made it clear that the signature piece of this blog in its lifetime has been ‘The 25 Most Important Black Films & TV Shows’ that I wrote a couple years back. When new people seek out either me or a project I talked about, the search engines will […]
