It's opening night for Brief Encounter at the Provincetown Playhouse NYC! The show is filled with singing, dancing, and great comedy all intertwined with a powerful love story. I play Stanley, one of the comedic roles and I sing the song "Any Little Fish". Come see the show if you're around! We run for the next two weekends!
The Dollar Shave Club commercial that I shot in December was just released!! A full 45 minutes! Such a unique and fun experience. Thank you to Beth Melsky Casting, Ramona's Model & Talent and TalentINK!
Today we had the first round of auditions for my short film, Half Empty! It was amazing to see our words come to life. I think we met a great group of actors and can definitely formulate a cast list!
This past week a casting notice was released on Backstage for a short film that I co-wrote, will be producing and acting in called Half Empty!!! My writing partner and I received grant funding for the project and are now in the process of finalizing the rest of the cast and crew. We teamed up with Storysmith Productions and are looking to shoot in March! It's such a great experience to witness the "other side" of the production process!
Also, in late December, I helped produced a commercial for the athletic brand, Physiclo!! It was released this week:
The promo that I did for TBS has been released! Thank you to Pudding Boy Productions and Tempest Casting! Check it out here:
I am VERY excited for the new year!! This past year I made many advances with my career and so I am extremely eager to go further in 2016. As of now, I have already booked a film, a sizzle pilot, and a stage production of Brief Encounter opening at the end of February. In between, I'll be working on some Commedia dell'Arte, writing a new web series and producing / starring in my first short film. Things are looking very busy and I am so grateful!!! I couldn't do any of this without the support from my family and friends - they are my rock and never stop encouraging me. Wishing you all an amazing 2016 - happy holidays!!!
This past week I booked another commercial for a leading razor brand!!! It was such a fun shoot and I can't wait to see how it turns out! Special thanks to Ramona's Model & Talent and Beth Melsky Casting for the opportunity!!
This past summer, I co-founded a YouTube comedy channel called Happy Accident! Our first video called Coming Out was a parody of my actual coming out experience. Since then, we produced many other short, funny videos. Our big project was a mini series called Tumblr Girl!, which exposes the extremes of social media culture and the hilarity that results when over-the-top political correctness is embodied by a super hero. We released our final episode Tumblr Girl! Episode Four: Ableism last week!
The final episode of Flying High With Charlie has reached over 20,000 views! I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to play Charlie. It was such a fun shoot and I hope a season 2 will be in the works! The series was produced by OutliciousTV and can be watched on YouTube here!
Within about a month, I booked two commercials! One was for #MPWR, a new organic skin care brand and the other was a promo for TBS! Both were so much fun! I am looking forward to working on more in the near future!
