currently scouring the ads for voiceover work

Skimming quickly in my usual spots. I will also have to cancel the special shampoo that is going to cost an arm and a leg and has no real proclamations from any hair people that it actually WORKS. Several that state they notice absolutely no change. Which doesn't exactly give the shampoo any props in the positive column.

In any case, I will re-examine my shampoo methods and look into getting an appointment for my annual health checkup.

Yep, too excited for words!

yay got check today

Got my check for a voiceover gig I did last month. Feeling awesome!

Will deposit tomorrow. It's a great pre-holiday gift and a reminder towards what I plan for next year. Feeling awesome!

Got a reminder from a voiceover company to check out going 'premium' but the jobs so far that I see aren't that very impressive or numerous. Should I really be throwing my money away on this one?

tonight is Bored to Death

I don't know if I'm even going to show up on camera, even though I sat directly across from actor Jason Schwartzman in a scene at the Russian club/bar place. He was nice to make small talk with background, asking about favorite movies and what we liked about NYC. What I liked was his comment about walking down the street here and picking up on other people's conversations, something that doesn't happen as much in L.A. He seemed sweet.

I ended up dancing with an extra I had worked with on a prior gig, he was this big muscle bound Mr. Clean looking kind of guy, and we just joked and danced before the final scene which involved him with several other men chair lifting Jason and a fellow actor in a crowd dancing vodka drinking sequence. *smile* That was a good memory. After that, everyone quickly dispersed as they called it a wrap.

I remember wearing these Steve Madden black shoes that were quite comfortable despite the heel height. It was one of those heavy front strapped kind that was popular last year. I was dressed head to toe in black in the tackiest pieces I could find to wear...and it ended up being approved for wardrobe!

Looking to find work for nights and weekends in voiceovers. I keep looking.

voiceover gig went well, done in an hour

And it was, as some like to say, 'easy peasy'! I already have my 15, 30 and 60 second voice segments, and it's to air on local radio already. Now it's a matter of getting paid. I'm definitely psyched!

Meanwhile, the SVU episode where I appear as a juror showed this past week and you can see me for like two seconds behind Christine Lahti. Then this week on Bored to Death, the ep where I appear as part of a Russian restaurant club scene is to air. It's wild to see how these things are finally coming to light.

I put in for a background gig this weekend but I haven't heard anything. At this point, the only time I can work background is on a weekend. My focus is more on voiceover work. I want to do more paying gig ones! Let's see what happens next.

Went to a friend of a friend's off-off-off-off-Broadway show. It was pretty cute, I had a laugh or two. It's good to support your fellow actors.

happy dance

Awaiting news on the voiceover project. I figure they will send slides too, just anticipating.

I had to give them a new time slot as I'm not available during the day as much anymore. I held my breath for a bit but great news, they can work with the time! I'm very excited.

got the gig and the nod!

The first SVU I was on showed up on the season premiere. I see me for a brief second standing by as a crime scene on-looker in the beginning sequence.

Beyond thrilled. I looked good. The next one is where I appear as one of the jury. Yay!

Got word finally from the potential voiceover gig. Got it! It's been given the nod from the client, so we meet to do the taping. I am beyond thrilled. Yayyyy!

saw myself in a segment on Nat Geo!

I actually got my voice in there too, I got one of my lines kept! I am so damn happy beyond words.

It's a reminder of what I have to do to move to the next level. I will get there. No doubt about that.
