My cue is “jazz hands”
Friday, September 28th, 2007I have been cast in a video, shooting this Sunday. It’s for a 7-part sort-of mini-sitcom, one of those modern ones that don’t have a laugh track. Think “The Office” meets “Awkward Geeky Math Nerds’ Love Affair.”
I am actually not quite sure where it’s going to end up playing; I think it’s one of these new Internet-based TV-style serials, which apparently quite a lot of producers/directors and studios are starting to put out. After seeing the enormous success of lonelygirl15 and her 13,000,000 views and 101,000 subscribers on YouTube, advertisers and the TV/media industry realized the huge potential there is in shooting specifically for Internet broadcasting. Several networks are now producing full-length TV series and movies specifically and solely for broadcast via the Internet. I think it’s going to be a huge market very soon.
So I got an email from the director and I was cast! I play “Secretary.” It’s not some huge part or anything, but I do get to open every episode. And it will be fun; it turns out there are several people I know who were also cast. And it’s a credit, one more line on the resume.
If you want my autograph now, while they’re cheap, lemme know.
