My First Movie Premier

Here is the info for the movie premier. I need anyone interested in attending to contact me as I can only invite a handful of people.


What's Up!

The second weekend filming on Bump went well. I found out they have a website up with a trailer. It's www.BumpTheShow.com. Check it out. Filming again the second week of November.
Ben's Christmas is only filming one day in November so I've started looking for more projects for November.
The short mockumentary style film is in progress, but I don't have a film date yet for that.
I had a free weekend this weekend so I jumped on an open project for the 72 International Film Festival. I should get a link to that tonight that I can post for y'all.
I've had a couple of cool auditions recently, but haven't heard back yet on either one. I have one tomorrow for an animated character voice over which I'm excited about as well, but I'm not feeling so hot and I'm worried I'll be sick for it. Not good. Hope it's not swine flu...
Upcoming events:
Oct. 30th ROAR Theatre, Zombie Vengance, An Improv Comedy Show, 9pm The Green Room, Next to Twigg's Coffeehouse.
Nov. 7th Stand Up Comedy, The Charcoal House in La Mesa, 7:30pm
Nov. 10th Movie Premier for my first feature length production, The Last Year of My Life.
I'm so stoked about it. I can't wait to see it!

BUMP

I shot the first three episodes of a webisode called Bump this weekend. It's planned to start airing in January. The site is www.Bumptheshow.com. Right now there is just a trailer up. Hopefully it will start building momentum.

Cast and crew hung out after we wrapped Sunday night and I got to know everyone a little better. That was really great since we will all be working together for the next four months. Awesome people, all of them.

I also had my first rehearsal for the feature film Ben's Christmas. It also went well. It was a very long, very busy weekend. But TOTALLY GRATIFYING!!!

News, Notes, & Gloats

I've been so bad about writing and there is so much to tell. In August I was an extra for a production up in LA called the Lawrence Khong Magic Show. I'd tell you all about it, but then I'd have to kill you. No really. I signed a contract. No talk-y about the Magick-y unless you want to end up in court...y.

Then I helped a guy who started this youtube channel called Plastic Edge who is making music videos for songs that need them. It was a lot of fun and I got to spend the day at the beach getting more tan. There should be a link on my you tube channel to it if anyone wants to point and laugh at dear old Lauren.

Then I shot a trailer for a movie up in Santa Clarita, during the middle of the wildfires. Hellooo. Hopefully it means a part in the full production down the road. They shot the trailer first to try and raise more money to make the film. Good luck guys. I'm pulling for you. It's called Brain & Maggie's Yard Sale.

Whew. As if that wasnt' enough, I just got cast in an indie feature being shot here in San Diego called Ben's Christmas. It's a dark comedy that sounds really hilarious. I get to play the dyke. I can't imagine why?! I hope I can rise to the occassion. I was so excited to call Elsa and tell her about it I was literally beside myself. Which is kind of scary since I drove. My first feature film with a real role. YEEEEAAAAHHHHH. Thanks for your confidence and the opportunity Charles. I'm honored to be a part of it.

That was last night. As if I wasn't on enough of a high, I had another audition this morning for another indie feature called I am a Human Directional.
They want to shoot in October, so it should wrap right about the time I start filming on Ben's Christmas. It's a mockumentary and sounds like a lot of fun. I'll get lots of input and a chance to improv. Woo-hoo! I hope I get some kind of role.

Tonight I'll be roasting my buddy Nicole for her 30th birthday. Should be a ton of fun. Wow! That's a lot of shit! I'm tired just reading about it. Oh, and I forgot to mention. I finally got up the courage to do the open mic at The Comedy Store in La Jolla. It wasn't as scary as I thought it would be...

Updates

Yesterday I did extra work for a HUGE Production. It's a new Fox Pilot (I believe, but don't quote me on it) called Terriers. I got to hang out on set with some actual famous people. COOL! Adeline Frey - It was nice meeting you and hanging out pretending to be travelers together.

Also, tomorrow is SOUTH BAY PRIDE!! I'll be performing there at 4:45pm. I'd love to see everyone come out and support Pride in the South Bay.

New Demo Reel for Agents

Here is an updated Demo Reel with some new footage. Still waiting on some juicier footage to come in from other projects, but I wanted to get something out there.
