This blog is 7 years old. Crazy.
I gotta work on jotting down things other than just the wacky world of the business. If you haven't heard, large swaths of brush and forest have been burning in the LA area. We don't live on the edges where that stuff typically pops up, but, due to the nature of the topography, we do suffer the effects of the crazy smoke that clogged the air. It's brutal. I was in Malibu late this afternoon, and could see the smoke from there (quite a distance). We've mostly stayed cooped up with the doors and windows closed all the time.
Ok...so the audition was with a casting director for whom I hadn't auditioned previously. However, I did a drop-off at her office on my first or second ever round of drop-offs shortly after we moved here. I thought I gleaned the info I needed for this, but when I got there, I was the only one wearing a suit. Everyone else also seemed to be of Latin descent, but I look like I'm from a long line of Ohio-ans. Then, I thought I maybe misunderstood something or was there at the wrong time. But, just a few minutes later, I was in the room. The audition material wasn't what I had prepared for, so I was a little overdressed, but otherwise able to adjust. My scene partner had a line to give to me in Spanish, but I knew what the reaction was supposed to be and I didn't have to say anything back. There were a couple of bumps in the way the scene came off, but it was fine. Afterward, I called my agency to make sure I had the time right, and they assured me I did. You really never know what you're going to do when you get to an audition.
