On set

I started the film I've been looking forward to since July. Only two days were shot and hopefully we continue next month, but seriously.. I love it. I love the cast and crew already.

Some of the extras didn't show up so guess who was an extra? Me. I was the only girl in a room full of straight men acting gay. And when I say gay I mean they were wearing colored tights and stuffed themselves and being very "close". During this scene I had to stick my bum in the air. I was very conscience of the 4 or 5 guys sitting behind me. All of a sudden..... Its a farting scene. No one actually farted (except Danny :)) but still, this was the first time I've met these guys. And that was the begining of the day. As it went on everyone got closer and closer. There was a lot of butt slapping and cock grabbing, some nakedness, and dry humping. Needless to say it was a fabulous day!!!

I just realized....

I just realized that the way I'm living my life this year (and however many years after) that I'm going to miss my favorite seasons.... How? you ask? So I live in Southern Cali/ Newport/LA.. Where there are no seasons really. I live there for the summer. The I'm moving to Tahoe for the winter. I'm sure fall and spring are great there, and I may be able to see some spring, but no fall for Anna.. I didn't think this through. Least I''ll get some sort of seasons though. Not just sunny and maybe some overcast. :)

I love laid back jobs

So this photographer I'm working with. Hes pretty awesome. In being a boss AND taking pictures. If I ever get married I want him to take the pictures. Anyways, This is what I do. I do hair and makeup on either seniors in highschool and actors getting headshots. Then I play DJ for a while and make sure they don't need anything. Then I can leave. And sometimes when I don't leave we have a beer after the client is gone. I am definitely ok with this :)

Why is making money so difficult?

So I got the position for the photographer! Thank god! There's only one problem. It's not as often as I would like. 1 maybe 2 times a week. The pay is alright, but I have things to pay off and others to buy and more to save for. Hopefully he starts using me more, but as of right now I need something else. I'm really starting to hate this business. Money aspect only. We all get jipped out of what we really work for. I'm tired of it. I want to work, but I also want to make enough money to support myself, which isn't happening very quickly. I'm at a loss. I don't know what to do anymore.

Today.. we filmed

I woke up at 4 am this morning to get to LA by 6 to spend 3 hours trying to apply a fat face prosthetic that was too big for my talents face and had HORRIBLE edges. But thats what happens when you don't/can't make your own prosthetics. But the day went well. My friend Jill came by to help me with the fake crackheads, but left before we encountered the real ones. I think we shot everything we needed. I hope so cause we're not doing the fat suit again! Poor Trek. He's a trooper wearing that thing all day in the heat and under the lights and dancing. I would've cried. All in all it was successful. (why does that word not look right?) Anyways, I'm totally exhausted! I'm gonna try to make it to the hot tub tonight. Might need someone to carry me. That's all. :D

This new movie!

HEY! I'm working on this comedy about redneck karate! Its really funny, if you have that kind of sense of humor, I guess. I love inappropriate things. I make fun of everyone and everything, so it's right up my alley. But the kicker is that we need to raise $10,000 by Sept 9 to get funded for the rest of the movie. I think it would be worth it. Just watch the webisode. It's going to be a lot of fun non the less. :D Here's the address..

Enjoy!

When People Don't Call Back

I hate it! Especially hen they get back to me and say that we need to get together and/or schedule a time and day to talk about a job, but they never get back to me when I email them back with my availability (which is pretty much whenever they're free) or even call and leave a message. So frustrating. I don't mind if I didn't want to work for them anyways, but when  actually DO want to work with them its just disappointing. :( sad face.
