Well, I've decided to make this blog thingy a regular monthly update. Hopefully, this brings some much needed stability into your life.
First things first - I managed to catch Middle Men at the Phoenix Film Festival and it turns out that I did indeed made the final cut! Middle Men has been picked up by Paramount and opens across the nation on August 6th so be sure to check it out!
Two short films that I acted in, Mr E-Comics and Pattern: Response, are screening at this years Phoenix Comicon.
Recently, I shot a TV pilot called tel·e·com·mut·ers. The initial cut was recently completed and will be submitted to both the New York Television Festival and the 5th Annual Independent Television Festival in LA. Both festivals will be used by the producers of the show to seek financing for a more polished pilot episode and possible pick-up for TV. Wish us luck! You can see trailers and video clips for tel·e·com·mut·ers on its Facebook Fan Page.
Finally, me and a few other actors shot a scene with local filmmaker, Sean Sinerius, as a part of a film making competition for Lionsgate. Each filmmaker was given a premise from an original screen play and a sample scene. Each filmmaker was to create a pitch as to why they should be the director. As a part of the pitch, each filmmaker was to shoot the sample scene. They could either shoot the scene as written, or modify it to make it their own or shoot something totally different in the same vein as the premise of the movie. Sean chose to shoot a modified version of the scene. To see Sean's pitch which included a 3 minute version of the scene, click here. The complete uncut scene is below!
One last thing - congrats to the cast of Outsourced! Outsourced is a pilot that was picked up by NBC. It centers around an American call center manager sent to India to manage a bunch of not so stellar call center employees. I had the privilege of auditioning for this show and while I didn't get cast, maybe there'll be room for me in a future episode! :) Congrats to Indians making it on network TV!
Well everyone, that's it! Thanks for reading.. Have a great Memorial Day weekend!
