Quiet on Set! . . . Places!!

So, yesterday has got to have been one of the best days in my life!!! :D A friend of mine is making a film for the San Antonio Independent Christian Film Festival, so I was asked to be an extra in it.

I had never, ever done ANYTHING like being in a film unless home videos count, although I've dreamed of it since I was really little. And have recently started making plans to make several short films with my friend.

But, like I said, this has been a dream that I have had for a VERY long time! And you probably already know that I absolutely LOVE acting! So I was super excited for this opportunity that God had opened up.

And, well, to say it briefly, I wasn't disappointed. :) And now I fear that I am hooked on acting in, and/or making films for life. . . .

But anyways, I can't tell you any details of the shoot (I am under strict orders from the Director), but I can tell you that I have now gotten a whole new outlook on how do filming (like angles, etc.), and I have now had an "insider" look on how they do it. So my mind is just reeling with ideas and the thrill to get out on the field and practice what I've learned.

Basically, when I got home (and in the car on the way home), I was practically jumping off of the ceiling with excitement (plus the 3 and a half cups of coffee probably didn't help matters much. . . .). And even now I feel like despite the discomforts of a springy outfit on a cold wintry day and being in an unheated building for filming, I would be FAR MORE than willing to go back and do it all over again!!! :D
