So this pass weekend I guess I've been taking advantage of my sister a bit and she might have gotten tired of it, whoops! She has been helping me with my audition tapes when it comes to recording, reading the other characters lines and such. She is usually locked up in her room as soon as she gets home and she stays there all night experimenting with make up and I've been pulling her away from her routine. I told her I would leave her alone today because I felt bad. The past few nights I've been going to bed at around 4am trying to tape audition tapes to perfection, editing them and putting them together. I'm sooooo exhausted right now! Just want to go to sleep but I have another audition tape and my sister has locked herself in her room before I even had the chance to ask for help again. I guess that's her way of avoiding the favor LOL. I got to get this audition done and I can't do it talking to no one so I decided to improvise! =) I have taped my self doing the opposite character's lines first and I'm just going to play that video on my laptop and respond to it as if it was a person. Hopefully it works! Hey, you gotta do what you gotta do, right?
On another note, I've been getting some pretty good responses from the audition I submitted last night! =) It was funny how it happened. It was a pretty long audition compared to the other tapes I sent out. It had four different short scenes. It was way to big to email and when I reduced the size it was way to small to really see my acting. I decided to uploaded to youtube and make it where only those with the video's url address could watch it. I realize I posted it here but I don't even know if there is anyone out there who even knows about this blog! Well, I didn't realize that the people who are subscribed to my youtube page for my belly dancing videos would get a notice that I had a new video up and that it would be visible to them. This morning I wake up and see three emails from youtube making me aware that I had comments on my audition tape. My heart sunk thinking I was going to receive the worse criticism ever! To my surprise, I got really nice comments! That absolutely inspired me to keep going at this and made me realize that I am not aiming at a dead end goal! I realize it is something so insignificant to others but to me it means so much! =) I feel so much more confident!
By the way, today was that music video. I took my mom with me and she freaked out for a while because there was a camera that was focused on my chest movements and another focused on my hips lol. She thought they were perverts! It took me a while trying to explain to her how the whole filming thing works but she feels better now. It was a very fun experience and something more to add to my very small resume so I'm excited!
Well, I got so much crap to do tomorrow and I'm probably not going to get enough sleep again because this audition thing takes a long time, so I better get at it!
**If there is anyone who is actually reading this, thank you =)
