PSA is Airing

Ok, SOOOOOOO! HERE IS AN UPDATE! The PSA has aired on the E! channel and Comedy central (That is what I have heard so far). Will give more specifics when I receive the press release :)

Just want to thank DCF advertising and the Client NYC Dept of Health for selecting me to be a part of this phenomenal commercial. Once again, it was an amazing experience. THANK YOU to everyone!

PS: There is also a brochure from the Print Campaign ;) just for you guys...

NEWS!

I am just here real quickly (in between studying for a math exam and getting ready for bed) to post that I had such a great time today filming the short "Mad Dash" by Chantalle Jean-Philippe & Michael Mooney. I played the role of Barry and had an awesome experience shooting from 8 in the morning until about 4pm.

We were all troopers; persevering the low temperature and interruptions by groups of church-goers, children, and elderly folk. I look forward to sitting down with the cast to view the raw screening sometime in December. Can't wait to add this to my reel!

ALSO! I have been asked to shoot for a print campaign, a follow up shoot for the HIV PSA I shot this past 2010 summer through DCF advertising. That adds a print credit!

So far so good. I look forward to many more successes.

Two short films in 1 month!

Hey Everyone!
So I realize it has been a little while since I last posted, but I have been super busy at Hunter College and my internship @ InTheMo (a smaller media production company that has a "Best of"/Video recommendations based website) Check it out @ inthemo.com!

So aside from my busy lifestyle, I managed to move my schedule around to make room for personal purpose fulfilling projects. This past month in October I received an email from a student at NYU and she asked me to be in her black and white silent film! Filming has been wrapped for a little while, but I am so excited to see the finished product at the end of this semester. She said she received great feedback and that audience members were impressed with my performance. Someone even asked for my contact info. Making connections!

So why stop there!? I decided to audition for a Hunter film that I saw posted. It was the only casting going on and I was determined to get the role. The day of the audition I skip the beginning of my class to be able to make an appearance and I read incredibly well. I was genuine, comfortable, and had a great time. Days later I was told I had received my first LEAD role in a short film as "Barry" in Mad Dash. We will be filming the week of November 8th and that will certainly add to my reel! Keep the momentum!

Being in NYC has certainly opened up a world of opportunity. Every day is filled with possibility.

PS: I also got an internship lined up at OXYGEN Media for the spring semester! YAY! Lots of good things:)

"Most Likely To" @ Theater Rowe!

 

This past Wednesday, July 28th, the cast and I performed our final performance at the Beckett Theater on Theater Rowe's 42nd Street!

"Most Likely To: The Senior Superlative Musical" was written and produced by Michael Tester, Directed by Abbe Gail Gross and with Musical Direction from Elliot Weiss. Our host was the 11th Annual Midtown International Theater Festival and we sold out every show! I should also mention that we were an Actor's Equity (AEA) approved showcase. Spring Awakening's Amanda Castanos joined this run.

Performance dates were July 18th & 19th @7pm, July 21st & 24th @2pm, and July 28th @ 8pm and tickets were available on ticketcentral.com

I played the role of Tic, a latino goth who holds animosity towards his school and anyone associated with it. I also played Lucas, a teen obsessed with 'Star Wars'. A good number of industry showed up and it looks like we will be able to follow up with them. These are exciting times :)
