| Hola! I'm in a pretty good mood for no particular reason (the best kind, I find). I'm pretty excited for tonight's premiere of Camp Rock on Disney Channel!
Not much has been going on for me in the acting department, though there was a fluke (which I hope will prove not to be one): I got an e-mail on Monday from a director I've auditioned for twice. He's very nice and very good director; during my second audition/screentest for him, he knew exactly how to get the emotion he neded- and all he did was ask me a few questions. I want to work with him, so needless to say, I was pretty excited to find an e-mail from him in my inbox, asking about my availibilty for June. I replied almost instantly, telling him I only had three days full- and one of them is already past. I haven't heard anything from him since then, and I'm pretty disappointed. June is almost over, and I was hoping he was going to offer me role... though I'd just be his assistant for the summer if it meant being on a set!
I've been working on a screenplay for a little less than a year now. It's based off of a monologue I did for a historical tour. I will probably finish this screenpay (I rarely finish them), but I doubt I'll be able to do anything with it because it was written by the director I worked with. I really like the screenplay so far- it much more dramatic than anything I've ever written before. It's very sad and there are some scenes that I start crying when I read them- and I wrote them. I don't know what I aspire to with this screenplay- it's about half done and around 10,000 words (including stage directions and such) and is a period piece, Maybe it will come to something one day...
I also learned that I am really really bad at singing On My Own. I've never sung it solo, only with recordings. I found a music book that had it in it, and I sang it at voice lessons on Wednesday... and I sucked. It was so nasal and I didn't want to belt it out since I wasn't confident, so it was just... crap. I was so embarrassed. But I'm also gald that I humiliated myself in the safety of my teacher's home, and not during an audition (not that I would ever sing it for an audition :p). It was just bad... I hate loving songs I can't sing- Good Morning Baltimore, any pop song, and now On My Own. |
