Canyon Prince Journey of a real life renaissance man.

Hey all -

Hey Everyone -

Hey all -

We just wrapped production on Episode 1 and everything looks amazing!  We had an amazing cast and an extremely talented crew.  I am totally excited about the way things worked out and we're now looking forward toward production on Episode 2 in a couple weeks.  Not sure what type of pics we can release as of yet, but here's one of me, my producer America Young and the star of the show J Michael Briggs that Wire Image took last week.

Hey Everyone -

Hey all -

Hey Everyone!  I just finished shooting the film 'Peaceable Kingdoms' today.  The film was directed by Peter Gelles and is about an American soldier in Iraq who befriends a young Muslim boy.  

So my production company Vanguard Media Group, LLC is starting work on several projects, the first of which will be a web series that takes a comedic look at the online dating scene in Los Angeles.  Future projects include several features, a musical documentary and some music videos.  I'll definitely post more info as it becomes available.

I've just been cast to play an American soldier stationed in Iraq in the indie film 'Peaceable Kingdoms' directed by Peter Gelles.  Principle photography starts at the end of March.

Here's some pics from the Closing Night Party of Neil LaBute's 'Some Girl(s)'.  Such a great cast to work with!  I'll miss them all.

Here's some pictures from the 2008 Geffen Playhouse Gala last week.  It was a ton of fun and I had the distinct pleasure of watching Dick Van Dyke sing 'Supercalifragilistic' on stage with Ashley Brown (Mary Poppins on Broadway) and Sierra Bogguss (The Little Mermaid on Broadway).  Enjoy!

Just a reminder everyone:  I will be appearing in the season finale of Season 2 of the hit show 'The Riches'.  I play a traveler named Paddy Wallace and have a pretty cool scene with Jared Harris (Resident Evil: Apocalypse, Lady in the Water).  Anyway, the episode airs Tuesday, April 29th at 10pm PST on FX. 

So I have finally been reinstated into my Diet Mountain Dew commercial!  My agents busted some serious butt and got everything taken care of today around 1pm.  I would like to point out however that it was the ad agency BBDO that finally took care of the problem.  

So the brilliant geniuses over at BBDO ad agency have outgraded me from the Diet Mountain Dew spot mistakenly.  How did this happen you ask?  On the day, I had a stunt driver who was listed on the call sheet as GET AWAY DRIVER while I was listed as ROBBER #1.  In the spot they saw two robber, ROBBER #2 and #3 and a get away driver, so they assumed that ROBBER #1 wasn't in the spot any more.  Make sense?

Well, today the WGA finally voted to end it's three month strike that they had with the AMPTP! Last Thursday was the last day they picketed the studios and I was proud to make it out to Disney Studios along with my manager Eileen O'Farrell to show our support. Here's some picks!

Well I'll be darned... turns out there's a minute cut of the Diet Mountain Dew spot floating around YouTube now and guess what? I'm in this one! Gotta thanks Darrin Jacques, one of my fellow bank robbers in the spot for keeping an eye out, even after we got outgraded. Dean Shaller is also in this one as well. I play the getaway driver at the beginning of the spot and Dean and Darrin are the other two robbers. My agents are investigating now to figure out if this cut is airing or if someone just put it on YouTube. Fingers crossed... and if you see this cut on tv, let me know!

Enjoy ;)

I'll be adding a couple additional clips to this very shortly, but for the mean time, here's my official demo reel.

Enjoy!

In this town you keep praying that one day you'll be fortunate enough to book a national commercial. Then that day comes and you hope to God that it means you'll be set for life. Unfortunately, as in the case of these three, it doesn't always pan out the way you'd like.


The three of us shot a national spot for Diet Mountain Dew earlier last year along with some other actors. I got the call teeing off at the fourth hole at Whitsett incidentally. There was our portion of the commercial, a bank robbery, along with three other portions that made up the entire spot. Well, today I got a nifty little letter that said the three of us (meaning our portion) had been outgraded (meaning I couldn't move to Tahiti and run a brothel).

I have the profound pleasure of working with my favorite playwright Neil LaBute on his play Some Girl(s) which is being performed over at the Geffen Playhouse in Westwood. Unfortunately I am not performing in the show, however just to have the opportunity to spend my days getting paid to watch Neil direct is unbelievable. I've learned so much and who knows? Maybe this will lead to something later down the line!

Okay, so I got bored and video taped the monologue I've been using for the past three years or so. Let me know if you can figure out what it's from!
