Just a Week in the Life


This week gets mixed reviews from me. Part of it was good and part a little disheartening. I finally got my feedback from the agent audition. It is as follows:


Agent 1: I look like an actor and have a good headshot, rates me at a 5 out of 10 and said “nice job, keep at it.”


Agent 2: I look like an actor and have a good headshot, gives me a 5-8 (ready to compete) and said “good scene.”


Agent 3: I look like an actor but my headshot is not expressive enough, gave me a 6 out of 10 and said “cute, bright quality.”


I do not know which agent it which. Overall I am pleased with the feedback. I was a little disappointed that they did not provide more feedback, but usually with these auditions they don’t give you any. I hope to eventually get to the 9-10 range, but will take better than average at this point, especially coming from big time agents.


Not so great part of my week: the girl I rear ended filed an insurance claim, and a part that I got called back for and was certain I got I didn’t get. It all comes with the territory.


Random part of my week: a man who always comes into my work came up to me today and said “Sometimes you are so serious it makes me want to laugh. I can’t tell where things are changing for you cause you go from really serious to really happy; I can’t figure out your creative mind.” My boss says he is a director, but can’t remember if he directs for film or stage. Anyway I thought that his observation was pretty good, I usually can’t tell myself where the change comes from.


Hope you are having a good day!!
