To Train or Not To Train...


If there's one thing ANYONE in the biz recommends, it's TRAINING TRAINING TRAINING!!! Look this is a business where the 'on-going education' thing is HUGE! (as it is in several industries).

Hooked myself up with an actor's workshop and it's been great. The focus is on-camera auditioning (VERY different from Theatrical auditioning). Anyone who knows me, knows that I'm very animated and 'on purpose' but I'm being reminded that for on-camera auditions, I need to keep my character a little closer to me and project 'her' through smaller actions and through face -vs- projecting through exaggerated actions and face.

I've taken these several times before, but it's been a while so this is good...really good!

So for your actors out there... keep yourselves 'in the know' and TRAIN! You rock at your craft... it's good to learn new techniques to incorporate with your own.

Okay - peace out from this little corner of the world!
