Woo-Hoo TV!!!!


ok, I've been putting off blogging about this, because if it didn't happen, than I didn't want to feel stupid... but... it's official.. I'm in a TV show!!! woo-hoo!!!
a friend of mine from work is really into movies, he has done a few short films, and one of them has gotten awards and stuff at some independent film festivals, like Cannes, and Sundance... he does some projects with a guy that I USED to work with at the movie theatre. They were going to start working on a movie, but that got put on hold, because they got approached with the idea of making a television show. It's just a little local show for now, but if it's good enough than they could get picked up by a network!!! I just have a small roll. In the pilot episode, I only say one thing, but they said that I was pretty good, my mannerisms, and expressions were perfect, so I'm pretty excited about what kind of doors this could open up for me!! :D:D

yesterday was the first day of filming, it was pretty small, the first scene is at the main characters' apartment, (which is just my friend's house), so just a few people that are in that scene were there. my part wasn't until the end of the scene, so they let me do the little slate board during the other scenes.
I am totally loving it, it's probably one of the most fun things I've ever done in my life!
Tonight we're filming at the movie theatre, there's going to be tons of extras, and we get to throw popcorn and soda at one of the characters :D

I'll keep you guys posted, and let you know how things go with it, I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Way cool! Any chance that they'll show it on the East Coast? If not, we'll have to figure out a way to see it on-line. What kind of a show is it? Do you know what it'll be called? When will it air? Details! We want details!

so, the show is called Roomies, and it's bascially just a sitcom about two guys that are roommates. I've only read things from the pilot episode, but so far it's REALLY funny. for now it's not going to show anywhere else, but I can try to get copies for people.

The only way it will show anywhere else, is if it gets picked up by a network, and if that happened, than I wouldn't be in it or anything, but it's still cool to be a part of it. :D:D
