Okay, so I admit... I've been a very, very bad blogger!
It seems that I have neglected this site somewhere in the middle of my Facebook craze (for those of you who would like to catch up with all that has been going on, visit my page there).
Anyway, really busy couple of weeks over here:
First, I got to return to Fox! Granted it was just to audition for the hit tv show House, but it was great to be back on the lot (for those of you who don't know, I worked there for nine months while shooting The X-Files back in the early part of this decade).
On that note, and as a side note, I'd like to give my condolences to the family of director/producer Kim Manners (The X-Files) who passed away earlier this year. He was truly a gifted man and I am proud to have had the honor of working with him.
Okay, NEXT...
I read for one of the leads in Day of the Woman a remake of the 70s cult-horror classic I Spit on Your Grave. Was great to be brought in for such a large role. In the end, I probably would've had to turn down the project, but it was still awesome to be considered (for those of you who don't know, the original was banned all over the place for it's gruesome 30+ minute rape sequences and bloody genital dismembering!).
Moving right along...
This week I auditioned for the new MTV show Hard Times. The show is like HBO's Hung, but for teens. I read for the role of one of the main kids older military brothers. The role was a recurring guest star! Anyway, I went back to MTV on Friday to read for the producers and the director. I read with the main kid and I think it went pretty darn well. The episode starts shooting next Saturday, so keep your fingers crossed that we hear something in the beginning of the week!
In production news, I just shot a small viral video series with the talented comedian Erin Brown that we'll be putting together and releasing in the next month or so. More info to come.
And tomorrow, I'll be directing an episode of the webseries Hero's Quest which I have acted as DP for during the life of the season. The series is being directed/produced by America Young and Jeffrey Jones.
What else, what else??
I figure I might as well put everything I can think of in one blog, since you never know when I may post again... just kidding. I'm gonna try to get better at this whole updating thing.
Just moved to Burbank! About a mile from Disney Studios and my favorite lot ever! WARNER BROTHERS!!! (for pics from the last time I was on the lot auditioning for Southland, check out my Facebook... and I'll probably post them here). The new place is amazing! Hardwood floors, lots of windows, and a full private garage! I'm moving up in the world!
I just did two more shows over at The Geffen Playhouse. Farragut North, in which I got to work with Chris Pine once again, and Matthew Modine Saves the Alpacas, which I got to work with the amazingly talented French Stuart and yes... Matthew Modine. Again, for pics, visit Facebook... and yes, I'll post them here when I'm feeling a little less lazy.
Ummm... I'm probably going to change the format of this blog from Blogger over to Wordpress (sorry Google, you know I love you!) so be on the lookout for that sometime soon! By the way, if you haven't experienced the beauty that is Gmail, Google Calendars and iPhone syncing, please do so now... you'll thank me later ;)
Also, for anyone who kept up with our webseries The Romantic Foibles of Esteban, we cut together a 20-min short that premiered at the 2nd Annual Feel Good FIlm Festival back in August. We'll probably be making the film available on the site soon, so make sure to keep an eye out!
Well, I'm sure I could go on for a few more hours but I don't wanna give up the goods all at once, so until next time... I got nothin'
Oh, by the way, lemme know how you like all these links to what I'm talking about!
Living on the edge. Trying something new. You know me ;)
Until next time...
