Finished my acting commitment to the "Happy Walter" project. This was the third Sunday in a row of shooting and I'm sad it's over as I was getting used to putting on the wacky clothes and slipping into Mr. Walter's skin for a few hours. Zoje Stage, the writer/director of this flick really made it easy for me, exhibiting buckets of patiences and providing lots of guidance to help me be "Happy". She's a great person to work with. I salute you Zoje! I haven't seen any of the footage yet, actually avoided watching any of the dailies while we were shooting as I feared seeing myself being "Happy" might throw me into a self-conscious zombie meltdown the next time I had to be on camera. Now that I have finished my bit, I'm going to check out some of the footage later this week. I got to say that I've really enjoyed getting to take on such a substantial and colorful role. It was a good opportunity to stretch my acting legs and see what I could really do. I feel satisfied with the work that I did, satisfied because it has fed a part of my creative soul that has gone hungry too long. I am at my best when I'm creating something, when I'm stepping into the arena and accepting the challenge of simply living my life as close to my true nature as I can.

OK HW
Top stuff!
ReplyDeleteGlad you got to exercise the creative soul!
Look forward to seeing 'Happy'
i love the loo paper photos - good stuff! :). But you could have wrapped some of it around the head a bit - you know a "civil war" look. That could have worked ;).
ReplyDeleteThanks' for the comments.
ReplyDeleteLee, I'll see if I can work in some of that Civil War bandaged look. Would be some fun stuff.
cheers,
OK HW
