6 Flags



A couple weekends ago i went to 6 Flags with my boy Brian and his crew. Maaaaan, I had so much fun! It took me back to the hot summers in Houston when I would go with my family. Good times...

UPDATE: I just saw on the news that a RollerCoaster froze with people on it in California! I am glad as hell that was not me!

AUDITION, AUDITION


I just had two Auditions.

I had an audition for 90210 last week. It went well, and the casting director remembered me (Which is always a good sign) but I did not get it. I met a cool guy named Jeff who is an intern at the Agency that represents me, and I ran into this dude who i always see on auditions. I'm telling you, it is a small world. I also got to see the 3 girls who star in the show (AnnaLyne McCord, Shenae Grimes, and Jessica Stroup), so that was fun.

The second audition was for a dance movie called "Beat the World." I auditioned for the lead character, a kid named Yuson. I met with an acting coach, Noah Blake, to prepare for the audition. I felt solid on the acting part, but the dance part was a freestyle to a song I did not know, so we shall see...

J Beat and the Beatastics Pilot




Last weekend we filmed the pilot for J Beat and the Beatastics!

J Beat and the Beatastics (Title pending) is a kids show about a group of High School kids in a Rock Band. I can't say much more due to the confidentiality agreement I signed, but details will follow as I am allowed to release them. The show has not been picked up yet, but will be shopped around to Disney, Nickelodeon, ABC Family, etc.

My character is the Bassist in the band.

THE SHOOT

We had a really early call time, 6:30AM in Santa Monica.

The first part of the shoot was the Garage Scene. Basically it is a scene of the band Rocking out to one of their songs in the garage. This was one of the most fun scenes to shoot because I really got to let loose. I got a little too ambitious on the Bass, and gave myself a blood blister on my thumb, lol. I think we got some really good stuff.

The wardrobe designer was so funny. We went through about 5 different looks before settling on the final outfit.

We took our lunch break around noon, which was perfect for me because I had a callback for a Kraft Cheese commercial that I was able to run to.

The second shot of the day was a set up at a school. We wrapped at about 6:00pm.

The following day we did a series of confessionals. I had a blast shooting this thing.
