Heath Ledger committed suicide. Next!

February 29th, 2008 by admin

Here's the latest news on Heath Ledger's death.

They're saying he "accidentally" died from an overdose of six different combinations of drugs.  Huh?

Those drugs being oxycodone, hydrocodone, diazepam, temazepam, alprazolam and doxylamine.  Yes, dumb ass took all these at once.

Let's cut the bullshit here okay?  If Heath Ledger took all this shit at once, he wanted to die.  The last time I was prescribed oxycodone was when I had surgery on my hand and they removed and fused a joint on my right middle finger.  This is one serious painkiller and usually something prescribed to you after surgery.  Hydrocodone is another one of those drugs.  I was allowed to take two oxycodone to take care of the pain but trust me, one was enough. 

If you read my post on "The Pointless Oscars", you know my feelings about actors in general.  I'm sorry that Heath Ledger was a total dumb ass and took his own life.  At the same time, I think he had a great life getting paid a lot of money to do something most people would jump at the chance to do and ANY of us could do.  Whatever hardships he thinks he had, they're nothing in comparison to the everyday mundane lives normal people like us have.  Most of us work at jobs we don't really like getting paid just enough to make ends meet.  When normal people like us get depressed, we have to "suck it up" and just keep going.  This idiot had one big resource at his disposal and that was MONEY.  With money, you can get a whole research staff to look at your problems and help you with it.

I'm sorry but I don't have a lot of sympathy for a candy ass like this killing himself.  So there it is.  I'm sick and beyond tired of hearing everyone talk about how great he was and how he will be missed.  ENOUGH!  Reality check!  He was just an actor!  There are about a half dozen more actors jockeying to take his spot right now and they'll be just as good as he was if not better.

Tips From a Mild-Mannered Casting Director

February 29th, 2008 by admin

C. J. Rossetti

I used to think that actors had the easiest job on the planet. In my uneducated mind, actors were people who slept all day, simply spoke someone else's words, and cashed big paychecks. This assessment of the acting profession all changed when I found myself acting in my first church play at the age of 21. It was the most difficult and terrifying experience of my life. I found myself at rehearsal, in the role of Ebenezer Scrooge, kneeling in the graveyard set of the play. After pouring my heart out for several takes, all I could hear was the director yelling, "Cut, cut, cut, I need to see some emotion here!" After this and several other stage-play experiences, I realized that acting is one of the most difficult things to do well. Read the rest of this entry »

Who has directed the most actors to Academy Award wins?

February 29th, 2008 by admin

Eighty Academy Award ceremonies are now in the record book, so we thought we'd go back and take a look at some extra-trivial details. The Coen Brothers now have directed two actors to an Oscar: Frances McDormand for Fargo and Javier Bardem for No Country For Old Men.

Tony Gilroy, Paul Thomas Anderson and Oliver Dahan now have each directed their first actor to a win.

But who has the most and how many?

William Wyler, and the star of Funny Girl, Barbra Streisand

William Wyler has directed 13 different actors to Oscar wins, including Barbra Streisand in Funny Girl.

Zac Efron Gets Back to Work!

February 29th, 2008 by admin

 

We spotted him on the set a few days back, and once again Zac Efron continues to busily film his latest project, Me and Orson Welles.

With his hair slicked back, Zac showed up on Thursday morning at the Gaiety Theatre in Douglas, Isle of Man.

As previously reported by Teen Scoop Daily (our new name), Zac’s co-star in Me and Orson Welles is the lovely Claire Danes.

The film, which has a 2009 release date, is the story of “a teenager is cast in the Mercury Theatre production of ‘Julius Ceasar’ directed by a young Orson Welles in 1937.”

ACTOR Headshots in L.A. by Kaizen Photography:

- Actors on the rise: Kate Kelton
kate-and-kiefer-small-edit.jpg

Kate Kelton with Kiefer Sutherland.

You may remember Kate Kelton from a previous post. I met her at an Award Cerimony held in honor of Kiefer Sutherland.

Her latest success has to do with the Coca Cola Ad she stars in by Director Austin Formato.

Check out "The Museum" here www.ccrfa.com

It's an amazing feat of dedication and creativity considering its small budget and restrictive schedule.

Filmmaker Austin Formato, who shot the ad was one of 10 finalists for Coca-Cola's Refreshing Filmmaker Awards.

He and the cast will be flown to Las Vegas to attend the ShoWest Final Night Dinner and receive their award.

This commercial will then screen on almost 30,000 screens across America!

You'll be seeing Kate's face a lot in the next few months. Keep an eye out for her. She's got a bright future.

Masks: A revelation in their “deciet”

February 29th, 2008 by admin

Last class we did a short exercise exploring an imaginary mask...

I'd like to ask you to recall your "history" with masks-- what you've observed recently, but certainly in the past...

What you've experienced, in using actual masks (if you have-- certainly Halloween suffices; however, having any experience working with actual masks would be a valuable discussion.)

I would also like to hear your feelings and musings about the exercise. Also take a minute to consider what masks we use but do not call a "mask".

As always, thank you for sharing!
