The Holiday's are over...now get back to work!

Today I worked on "The Slammin' Salmon". I had an awesome time on the set. The whole Broken Lizard crew was great. The director Kevin Heffernan was a cool cat (he's also an actor) and very fun to work with. My scene was with Jay Chandrasekhar (another talented actor and director...he directed "Dukes of Hazzard").....dude is funny! Had me cracking up in our scene. And then that was it. One short scene....short and sweet...and I'm done. That's cool. I'll take those short day too! Smile.

So I'm on the set of the movie and I've going down the call sheet...and I recognize a friend and fellow classmate on the call sheet. Shorty was one of the leads in the film! That's what I'm talking about! We caught up with each other during lunch and just rooted each other on and shared a nice moment. I mean April is working regularly anyway....but I guess I was just surprised that she was a lead in the film. That's so inspiring to me....because that's what I'm trying to do. It'll come...but in the meantime....I wanted her to know how happy I was for her. And trust me...I've seen her work regularly in class and on TV....super talented and one of the sweetest and most humble actors that I've been fortunate to meet. And I would have totally said the same things if she wasn't in the movie. Cool people.

As I've mentioned before, it's always fantastic to be working....but sometimes it's even more special (if that's possible) when you get the chance to work with a friend. So needless to say, I am sooooo happy for her and hope this roles leads to many, many more huge opportunities. Yes, a great day! What a way to come back from the Holidays! Looking forward to this year. I'm so excited...are you?! The year is pregnant with possibilities! 2008 is GOING to be GREAT! ROAR!!! Smile.
