Sal Tlay Kasiti!

You'll figure the title out eventually.

This month was a huge month for me, as I finally made the move to Salt Lake to pursue a film acting career (theatre just doesn't pay enough, though it is my first love).

The auditions didn't pan out as hoped; neither did the callback, so we're back to square one on this whole acting thing.  I have decided to pursue a film career in lieu of really great opportunities in theatre (not to say I won't do theatre, I just have decided to put that on the back burner).

I passed the drug test for ASM; not surprising since I'm not on drugs, and have my first training today.  It was supposed to be last week, but due to a mixup it was not (I actually had some last minute medical stuff for which I had to cancel RMSSTA, so it wasn't a total loss).

I am shopping around for Agents in Salt Lake.  I had an interview at Urban Talent Management yesterday.  I do not recommend them if you are a professional actor with little to no film or commercial credits or if you are an amateur actor.

I am interviewing for Broadway Talent Management on Tuesday.  They seem more friendly to actors making the transition from theatre to film.  We'll see what they're like on Tuesday.

I signed into the Utah Film Commission database as an extra.  While it isn't guaranteed work by any means, it never hurts to put one's name out there.

I created a seventeen step personalized roadmap to my own idea of success after taking class #1 of Amy Jo Berman's "Discover Me Blueprint" program that is really helping focus me and my choices.  I highly recommend it to actors that have not been acting professionally for too long.  I am currently on step 2 of my personalized roadmap (get an agent in SLC).

Until next time!
