Kerosense Cowboys

What a fast pasted 5 days this has been. The casting agency that I work with, Integrity Casting, was called to provide extras and Production Assistants for a production company that blew into Northern NV. Name of the movie that is being produced is Kerosene Cowboys, with Mario Van Peebles and Bill Pullman. I was on location for three days either as a PA/wrangler or an extra. Long hours, but entertaining! Below is a few shots of talent that we had to find for one scene.

RED CARPET ETIQUETTE

Yesterday, 2/07/09, Maridy (my daughter) and I taught a class on etiquette to aspiring talent for the film industry. Integrity Casting hired us to teach & coach talent who will be needing all the skills they can use in various situations they will be exposed to in the film industry. This could be on set, a gala event, a "go see" or for an audition. Yeah for the auditions! First we taught the men, there are things that the men need to know about the world of etiquette that are independent of the females and the same goes for the females. Therefore the second half of the class was just for the females.

Carolyn teaching something, however those shoes sure match her sweater and I think the Wicked Witch of the West would be jealous.
