Just wrapped up!
First time being a leading role (or any role actually) in a student short film.
I had been in other smaller projects but this was the first time I auditioned, sent it, and got the role and it’s the lead! Like whaaaatttt!!?
And even if it’s a small student short film, I was really happy. Cause I’m not an acting student but I want to be an actor. I’m studying in Business and never had any acting class. So it felt somewhat really surreal that I got so many compliments from the acting students. Apparently when they were going through there auditions, there film teacher saw my audition and said: “ yup that’s the one.”
Like WHAT???!
And mind you this was my FIRST TIME doing a self tape and it wasn’t even my idea!
My roommate literally was auditioning for it and they are an acting student so that’s how they knew about the role. And they literally said to me that I should give it a shot.
So I was like “Why not? Like that it will give me practice on auditioning”
We took 2 takes. Thats it.
My expectations were on lower then my expectations in men☝
Which is pretty low.
Jkjk
But on serious note, I was like not expecting a call back or at all.
Like I’m competing with acting students. They’re actors. That study acting. They’re professionals it’s their PrOfeSsIoN! -S.STILINSKI
Anyways. I’m probably making this bigger than it is. But hey I feel proud.
