-I spent the day filming for a day with a production called THE VAMPIRE by TORCHMAN FILMS. I play a character named Varg, who-for the time being-has to be hidden so no pics at this time. It was a lot of fun and was like being on the set of a MAD ANGEL FILMS shoot. Of course, having many of the crew & cast from MAF shoots helps with that 🙂
-And now, for something different…. 🙂
-I’ve played various roles-some hero but mainly the villain / heavy, but now here I am as….a bus driver talking about the safety of the kids on his bus??? Yep-the following is 4 clips (tied together) that are part of an internal training video for First Student bus drivers. Unfortunately, I do not have access to the full video. It’s a change of pace from what I normally do wouldn’t you say? 🙂
I was asked by Marc R Baum a few weeks ago if I wanted to be one of the judges for the Emerald City Idol Competition. I had to make sure I was available due to May-August being the time when all the film makers I know want to film I was clear and able to do this. The other judges included radio personality Linda Wimmer (Mix 106), regional recording artist MARK ZANE and Broadway composer STEVE MARGOSHES (“Fame”). As I wrote last night on their fan page Emerald City Idol, …”I thought everyone did a great job-you guys didn’t make it easy on us to do our jobs. We even had some borderline arguments out in the hallway For those of you who won-congrats & keep moving forward! For who didn’t, don’t get discouraged-keep at it. All who made it to the finals deserves a round of applause. To all..keep pursuing your dreams & make them happen. Wishing you all the very best!” Pics are on my acting page on Facebook.
-I did some more filming with THE DOLLMAKER earlier today-which was a long one-and on the 13th-which was a quick one. Pics just got posted up from both days on my acting page on Facebook-including a possible prototype for a “Horace Merkins / Dollmaker Barbie Doll” 🙂
-Just recently back from my 1st days filming with TALES OF DRACULA. I had a great time and worked with a great cast & crew. No pics were allowed, but I have to admit the make up done by Ron Chamberlain was awesome! Looking forward to getting my remaining scenes done in hopefully the coming weeks…
I got a call a few days ago from AMS Models and Talent asking for extras for some filming with Pole Position Raceway Syracuse at Destiny Mall in CNY. I said I was available and away I went!
-There was actually suppose to be a 2nd shoot and a 2nd location but that got postponed. This was pretty cool-I’d never been to this part of the mall before. Me and others were basically the crowd cheering on the drivers as they sped by. This was being filmed by SolonQuinnStudios-who were all very nice and courteous with us. At one point they said we needed to jump around more and be more intense. You know what happens when I’m told that Hope I didn’t overdo it. I put some pics up on my acting page on Facebook.
– I had a fun time and look forward to working with these guys again hopefully (schedule pending of course-everyone wants to film during the May-August season and I already have 6+ projects already scheduled). Keep an eye on this page for updates!
