Hey Randi, Happy Birthday!!! I guess that is in order, when I wrote you the other day you were 15, today your 16..... Hope you have many more, and you enjoy a long happy life! Later, Conley
Hi Randi, Stopping in to say Hi!!!! Thanks for visiting me, was real busy this summer up till now sorry I missed you. I'll be around more now. So hows it been going, do you have in good news to tell about your career lately? Later, Conley
Looks like you are doing great. Thanks for posting on my page, nice to meet you. Hang in there, remember the average for booking a national spot is 1 in 83, so you have to be tough, and it sounds like you are. Dealing with rejection can get to you, but it will make you a better person. And my hunch is you're gonna work a lot.
I mentioned this to someone else, but what helped me the most with auditioning for commercials was trying to learn to do stand up comedy. Sure I wanted to write a good set, but I was more there to work on my comic timing and practice living in the moment. That really did give me an edge. Later on I did take some commercial classes, but the stand up comedy was way better.
Early on I couldn't afford acting classes. Paying the rent was hard enough. I went to trying stand up comedy to get free acting lessons. Talk about throwing yourself out on a hot frying pan! I bombed really bad my first time. But slowly I got better, and it helped me a lot to think on my feet, and have no fear of any casting after being in front of a comedy club. It gave me a set of skills that made it easier to audition for me.
Just a thought. Many comedy clubs have an open mic night. Write some stuff, and go for it! Might end up on a sit-com.
Your welcome Randi! Glad to share with you, what someone else had shared with me. Thats what networking is, sharing ideas, opportunitys and information!

Conley
