Ah, the beginning

Hello Future Readers,

I'm calling you future readers because at the moment I'm keeping this blog a bit in the dark. I'm not really sure where this will go and I don't want it to see the light of other monitors until I think it's worth someone else's reading.

As I've stated in my description, this blog is basically to chronicle my experiences as an actor. Why bother, you ask? Well, it seems to really be taking up a lot more of my time lately, and the more I do the more I seem to actually be...well...good at it. I've gone from doing community theater for years to being in several student and low budget films in the last year. It almost seems like I might be able to make the leap to professional acting, but I'll hold the pipe dreams down for a while. I think it might be fun to put some of these experiences down, both for me to remember and you to experience, at least vicariously.

As I write this I am gearing up for the second half of shooting the movie Threads: Valentine's Day a film by Keto Shimizu, of Theorem Films. It's a very deep script, and a very compressed shoot, and I love the challenge. I have written some about the first half of the shoot, and will post that later on. It's actually this shoot that seems to have inspired me to start this blog.

What you won't find in this blog is very much about my personal or professional life. I've seen how badly the former can go, and I've experienced how badly the latter can be when you blog without inhibitions. (That falls under one of the many "woops!" moments in my life.)

I hope you enjoy the read, I hope I enjoy the ride.
