Lora Bofil MD is not only a doctor helping the sickest during a global pandemic but she finds time to audition and book work for TV and Film. This past year she recurred on the new HBO HIT "HACKS" with Emmy Award winning Jean Smart.
Josue hired me to coach him for a series regular role, but didn't mention the co-star audition he had on the same day. I insisted we also work the co-star. He hadn't done much work on it and didn't find the "want" or the "emotion" so he had no arc. Throwing it away will throw away your shot. When casting says throw it away they don't mention to still want and feel something, they mean stop acting on the lines. We worked in an arc and low and behold he booked it. He's trained enough to book any co-star, but THE ACTOR PREPS is just giving him an edge when he walks into that casting office. He also recently booked PROVEN INNOCENT. Congrats Josue and keep it up! So I finally tried it, Stand-Up Comedy. It terrified me for years to make people laugh without hiding behind a character. You have to be vulnerable in front of a new audience and reveal something personal. The show actually went pretty well. It convinced me to do it again. It has woken me up from a deep sleep to take more risks and enter that dark tunnel in Joseph Campbell's "The Hero's Journey" and face my fear. It also made me realize all that I have already accomplished and all the more I'd like to do before I'm 50.
Congrats Ana Rey for booking SUPERSTORE! |
