Let's Get Our Zen On!

If you're new to the blog, welcome. I have just had a big move and now live near the ocean for the first time and it's amazing. Every day, there's is something different to take from it and I figured, why not share the love??

No matter where you are, now you have a bit of the ocean with you whenever you want! So go ahead and get your zen on! There's no wrong way...

Sending you full expressions of health, wealth, and happiness. Ommmm..... ; )

Actorfest Los Angeles, what an inspiring day!!

Hundreds of Actors, Downtown L.A., workshops, panels, and more. This past Saturday, 11/6/10 was awesome! I had never heard of Actorfest before, so when I came across information on it about a month ago I was really excited. After all, I have trained and I've met other actors briefly in auditions and classes but a whole day dedicated to both seemed so exciting to me I couldn't pass it up. I am so glad I went. Upon arrival there were throngs of actors in different lines and I wanted to take a picture to capture it all but my desire to get in the right line for processing and making it inside on time won out. I did however take a picture of the view from my first workshop, check it out!

A workshop on mastering the audition, along with panels filled with television and film casting directors had my brain on overload. I learned some great stuff but most of all I left so inspired! I got to meet some nice fellow actors too. A girl named Taylor who flew out from Kentucky for the day! Another girl named Michelle from Canada, a sweetheart named Angel, and a nice French girl with the coolest accent and the loveliest name, Veronique... 

The drive home had me looking up literally and figuratively. I don't hang out in Downtown L.A. too much so I couldn't help but snap a pic of my view! 

Once on the freeway, I caught a glimpse of the sky and I tell you it perfectly matched how I felt inside. Plus, I thought it looked so beautiful.

I mean what a day, I was so energized once I got home I couldn't help but dump my goodie bag out on my bed and go through all the great info and cool stuff I got. Later this week, I'm going to dig in a little further. 

I asked every Actor I came in contact with if they had been to Actorfest before and not a single person was a repeat visit (I hear it is held once a year.) As for me, I'd be open to going again next year. Of course, if I do, I'll have a different game plan to switch things up a little bit. Over all, it was a fantastic time. Thanks for reliving my Saturday with me. Cheers to networking, knowledge, and fun.
