OoooooooooooH! I like that one, Gran!
I went to an Austin filmmakers networking meeting last night, and a local producer/writer ordered me to audition for her project tonight. I get all the audition notices in e-mail, but don't go to many because I'm a big chicken. The last two meetings I attended, I was scolded by directors who had just finished casting new projects for not sending in my headshot, so this time I was caught the night before auditions and I guess I ought to go.
The role she wants me for is an over-the-top flamboyant psychic. I deleted the e-mail because I just didn't see myself as the "type" -- I picture psychics as dark women with black hair and Ms Cleo phoney accents, but she wants someone pale and ethereal. Okay, I can do pale.
It's a cute short comedy film. Angela's won awards with her previous works and they get seen by all the other filmmakers and sent to festivals.
