January Update

For those of you that know Gabriel you know that he has been doing a daily exercise in writing out what he is doing to work on his career and his craft. I have decided to do something similar here, except monthly instead of daily. So this will be about January of 2013.

Career:
I did workshops with Casting Directors Michael Nicolo and Danielle Eskinazi.

I did a workshop with agent Mike O'Dell from BBA (and followed up with email).

I did a class with Arriane Alexander on how to better brand myself and how to use the workshops to full advantage. This workshop was amazing and gave me a path to follow (a blog about that later).

I started Boom The Room with CD Caroline Liem (full blog about that to come).

I sent out a postcard mailing to my "industry update" group for National Belly Laugh Day.

I got new headshots for commercial, theatrical, and procedurals.

I submitted myslef to Minc Models and have set up a meeting with them for 2/26.

Started using social media to really reach out and start building relationships with agencies and casting directors I want to work with.

Craft:
Started my on camera audition technique course (counts for both career and craft)! Watch my class videos and notice what changes I need to make to have stronger auditions and then applied that in my auditions.

Reading two books on acting.

Submit myself multiple times daily for auditions via LA Casting and Actors Access.

Practice reading in the mirror to see what my face is doing so that I can better control it while acting.

Workout regularly to keep my body in excellent shape for whatever may come my way.

I will be doing one of these at the end of every month! I am excited to see how much I have done at the end of the year!
