Enjoy!

Watch for my new pilot, Burn the Ocean, by Roger Casey and Sean Hudock, directed by Ashlea Hartz and produced by Brooke McDaniel.

I’ve also recently recorded a bunch of top-secret voiceover dialogue and efforts for an Academy Award winning actress, directed by an Academy Award nominated director.  It’s due out this November with another Academy Award winner as the other star of the film. Wish I could tell ya what the suspense-filled film is, but then, well…..let’s just say, it wouldn’t be pretty…  It was one of the most creatively fulfilling and rewardingly exhausting few days of production that I’ve ever experienced.  The editor of the film (wish I could tell ya his name, but, well…. you know the drill…) was extraordinary in his ability to convey what the film needed from me, while he coordinated his comments, via Skype from across the ocean, to LoopersUnlimited expert theatre & voiceover director Dann Fink, on to me with precision and inspiration.  So grateful for them both and for the amazing talents of Mark DiSimone, the mixer at Soundtrack Studios in Manhattan.

Funny Is Only the Beginning

Sit-Com looks easy doesn’t it? But have you approached a script that’s supposed to be funny, yet when you try it, it just isn’t? By the end of this on-camera course you’ll know The Rules of Comedy, how to find the jokes in a script, be able to develop believable characters, and how to approach physical humor. Most of all you’ll have fun learning how to be funny!  Like Maggie had letting Jerry Seinfeld know just how “Mary Contardi” felt about never being called after their date 3 years earlier.  LOL!

2 Saturdays, June 22 & 29, 2013, 10am-5pm
