Happy to see that auditions are picking back up slowly but surely. Winter is pretty much gone so now it's time to get to work.

I did some quick modeling work for an author named A.C Frieden. He's a suspense/thriller novelist. I think the photo turned out pretty good. It was a promotion for his new and upcoming book which is out now. I don't think I'm in the book itself but it was for that book :D.

It's called "The Pyongyang Option". Him as well as the other people who were at the shoot like his wife, photographer and friend were such nice people. They were super easy to work with and I enjoyed hanging out with them. Best of luck to A.C. Frieden and the gang! Hope to work with all of you beautiful people again!

I worked with them last year and I had a lot of fun. It's an industrial shoot. Met a lot of great people. Today I went there again. I'm glad they wanted to use me again. Shelby, if you remember her from my past post, she was there again! This time as an AD. She did an outstanding job. She was ON TOP of things so that's one for her resume haha.

I also met Jim Johnson again. I worked with him a long long time ago. It was good to see him again. He's doing great. Super funny and all around great guy. Thanks to him, I got the video for the shoot we did together. I didn't think I'd get it but he pulled some strings and got the video.

Shout out to all the talent that I worked with today. I've forgotten some of the names from yesterday, but you'll never be forgotten in my heart...

Good luck on your music Young David haha. To Kayla and Jim, sorry I kept botching up the lines in our scenes. I kept reading my line but it was NOT sticking to my head. I felt bad for taking up too much time.

I learned a lot about myself today because of that line that I was supposed to say. I'll practice on tongue twister words.

What's happening in this picture is that Shelby brought up that Korean hand sign for a heart. So we were going to do that, It turns out we strayed way off from that haha. Good times. My heart just turned into me pointing to my finger tips. Best of luck to all of you and good luck on your show Shelby. I'll put the flyer on here just cuz.

This is the postcard from Shelby and information about the show she's in. This is all in 2019 by the way if you're reading this in the future.

 Went to my agency #bmg to pick up something. They moved locations so it was my first time checking this place out. It was nice. I can't show the inside but I'll show the sign that was posted outside the hallway.

Team BMG all the way baby. You've been really good to me. Mmmmmmmmmmmm big nostrils I have.

Had an audition for for one of the Chicago shows today. I can't say which. It was nice and quiet inside. This isn't for a huge role but I'd be very happy to get this one line role :D.

Audition maybe took 50 seconds. I like these auditions. Quick and easy. The only time I don't like these auditions are if they're in a location that is extremely hard to get to with no parking and if I took uber/lyft it'd be almost $15 for a 50 second audition... luckily, there's usually parking a few blocks away in all the audition places I've been to so far. Some are hard to figure out if it's actual parking because the way Chicago is built, there's residential parking then there's non residential parking. One block could be residential parking where you NEED a residential parking sticker to park there and it's not as easy as just buying a sticker for that area. You need to actually live in that area to get the sticker. I KNOW RIGHT! I think Chicago loses out on a lot of business when parking is so hard that you can't even get to the place you want to spend money. But what do I know, I've only lived here 1.5 years as of this writing. There's pros and cons to this. I won't get into that though.

Good Luck me for this audition. I've been an extra on one of the Chicago shows, but I'd like to be a bit more than that.

Also walking from where I parked to the location for the audtiion was like 0 degrees F because the wind was blowing and I had no way of avoiding it. It was wind chill, full contact on my face and hands. WOOOOOO.

Had an audition at Cinespace today. They were running a bit late today but I wasn't worried. I'm glad they have parking and it's a huge parking lot. Make sure you write a note that you're going there though haha.

I met Huy again. Hopefully I spelled that right. We worked on Dell together. Glad to see him again and best of luck to his future work. Also met someone who did Snack Crate with Dion. Dion is someone I worked with before. He's a funny guy. She was super nice too. Best of luck to her and Dion!

Also met a guy named Andre. He was a voice actor/ actor. Best of luck to him as well. ALSO another guy who I don't think I got his name. But also, best of luck to him.

Had a quick photoshoot today for an ad. The ad was for an author named A.C Frieden. It was great meeting him and everyone that was there. The long time friend, wife and photographer. They were all amazing because they all had a small role to play haha. Like holding the lights near my face.

The book comes out in March of 2019. When I get my hands on it, I'll be sure to post it. Again his name is A.C. Frieden. I wish I knew the photographers name as well. Maybe she had an online portfolio.

Best of luck to all of you that I worked with today and I hope to work with all of you again the future. I wish I gave all of you my business card but I forgot :(

Update: Here is a snapshot.

Quick audition today. In and out within 5 minutes or so. There were other talent lined up before I got there, not much maybe 4 or 5, and they were super nice. So chill and friendly. Best of luck to all of you, especially in the snow as parking was doable but the snow didn't help as it covered up the lines.

It was the coldest day in 2 decades (or something like that) in Chicago. -20 with no wind but almost -50 with wind. Now that I've experienced it, I can say, I experienced it haha. I stood out there for 10 minutes to feel it. Stupid? Probably. But, I experienced it!

Also I found a picture of when I did a shoot for Alur glass. Hopefully I'll find and see more at their website. You can see a slightly bigger picture on the "stills and print" in the "portfolio tab". :D

I love working with them. I was able to work with the great cast and crew again for On Course. Shout out to Shelby and Jill for being familiar faces :D 

Here's a photo of 2 weeks ago. He's an awesome guy!
