On Thursday I was just at the beginning of one of those actor slumps. As much as I tried to fight it, I could feel myself starting to feel very far away from my goal. I’m sure there were many reasons for this, Tuesday’s events probably being a major factor. Not finding any work for Friday was minor factor, but a factor nonetheless.
With perfect timing the phone rang. It was Summer at Central. She told me that they wanted me back on Men In Black for a matching shot. OK. And it’s on a SAG voucher. “Absolutely!” So, after a relatively short 10 hour day, I walked away with number one of three SAG vouchers. And much better pay for a day’s work.
And now I’m in the midst of an exciting game of phone tag with my photographer, and we’ve nearly got an appointment set up for Thursday. I should have been doing this a while ago, but I’ll finally have some decent headshots. So I’ll be able to submit for other projects hopefully by next week. Don’t get me wrong, except for the pay, and sometimes the lack of respect, I really don’t mind doing extra work. It keeps me busy and at least on the cusp of the industry. But there are only so many times you can walk back and forth without saying anything.
