I can't - I have rehearsal.

Salut, mes amis!

Ahhhh Kansas.

Wow. Not starting off so great with this blog, huh? Thursday got away from me, I will admit. Combination of sleeping in too late (don't look at me like that - it's still summer!), movie, working, and rehearsal. Kind of been a lot of that this week - work and rehearsal that is. I have a show opening next weekend, so there's a lot of rehearsing happening. Afraid it makes for not a whole lot of interesting things to talk about.

I will however talk about my show, because if you're in the Kansas City area, you should come check it out! It's called You Can't Stop the Beat!: Rock on Broadway and it will be at the Barn Players August 16, 17, 18. It's the benefit concert for the Barn, so on Saturday there will be a silent auction and dinner in order to raise money. The show features songs from shows like American Idiot, Aida, The Wedding Singer, next to normal, Spider-Man Turn Off the Dark, Bring it On, and more. It's just genuinely a good time - if you can come I promise you won't be disappointed! For more information and to purchase tickets, click here!

Other things that happened this week:

• Went swimming
• Saw "We're the Millers"
• Hung out with my little cousin

Hopefully next week will be a little more eventful and I'll remember to actually keep to my schedule!

Thanks for reading, dear reader!

Editing a Movie

Salut, mes amis!

I swear I don't photograph the sky as much as this blog makes it seem I do.

Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to be in an indie film. The experience I had filming this movie, Intermission, was one of the best experiences of my life. The cast and crew got along really well - we became this giant, weird, crazy family that just clicked right from day one. Being on set and getting to film scenes reaffirmed that this is what I want to do for the rest of my life. An actor's life is the life for me.

It's been a few months since filming wrapped, and I've really missed it. Today, however, I got to sit in while my friend and director, Lolo Loren, worked on editing together the final product. She showed me a good chunk of the rough cut, and I'm so impressed with how it looks. It's so much fun to get to watch myself and my friends do our thing, and I can't wait to watch the whole thing from start to finish, and share it with all of you. I'm just so proud that we actually made a movie and it looks seriously good.

Lolo hard at work making a really awesome movie. Did I mention it's awesome? Because it's awesome.

I've been putting in additional work on this film - running the official website, Facebook, and Twitter. Call me the social media liaison. Part of this job is taking all the behind the scenes photos, slapping a watermark on them, and posting them onto the website. So I've been doing a lot of that.

My photo editing station for the day.

Other things that happened this week:

• I ombre'd my nails
• I saw the Conjuring
• Started this blog

Pretty boring week, today aside. I promise I'll try to do something exciting for next week. Until then!

Thanks for reading, dear reader.
