cue snow
No soup for me.
Close, but eventually released. Today, an awkward audition for one person and a camera guy. I was liked but not cast. Tomorrow, a pretty big deal audition where I’ll my best to say the product’s tag line without flubbing, or at least be likeable as I butcher it.
In the real world my coworkers and I discuss auditions with vigor and enthusiasm, hail artistic projects and collaborations, swap ideas for upcoming pieces of brilliance… and then put on the customer service phone headset and get chewed out for 25 minutes by a patron.
As if cued by the snow landing on the sidewalk outside my apartment, I finally discovered a link to the commercial I was in posted online.
So at least I know I didn’t end up on the cutting room floor and there will be some form of financial gain to this whole adventure. I can’t wait to blow it all on jelly beans and popsicles. Once I found out the other hip TV spots the producer was responsible for, I was a smart ass on the set and asked if there would be a cute indie rock song accompanying the images. Damn cute indie rock songs are damn cute, aren’t they?
Speaking of tunes and show and tells… For my theater company’s upcoming show, I’m writing the music for the scenic transitions or ambience, or whatever else I can squeeze in there.
And dammit, I still can’t figure out a good WordPress plugin for a media player. So I’ll save it.
Your agent is probably on top of this, but make sure they know that it’s online “officially.”
They have to pay you more.
YAY for more PAY!
It looks like it’s just US Cellular’s Facebook page, like an advertiser showing their portfolio. Does it still work like that?
absolutely. They’re still reaching consumers. That ad will still ostensibly make people buy US Cellular.
