Acting in Austin

So…I just wrapped my 3rd day on set for the film "The Wild". I played Laura, a drugged out chick who knows the secrets to the burning questions that the lead characters want answered. My 3 days were spread out over the entire corse of filming, and the shooting locations were spread out all over town so it was great showing up to a different location every time. Now that it's over it's time to move on to the next project. I'm considering sending out my headshots & resume to an agency that I've been dieting to sign with but I want to wait for clips of the projects I worked on for my demo reel. Patience IS a virtue. :) Now something my boyfriend didn't have patience for… IM ENGAGED! :))) On my cruise I just got back home for my boyfriend proposed to me! I'm super excited and still a little in shock! Can't wait 'til I walk down the isle!

Well here I am, on set as an extra for this horror film. I have nothing against background work, I just promised myself that I would only do it if I was getting payed. Yet here I am, getting payed with generic granola bars and hopefully a slice of pizza.  I decided to come here because #1) I needed to take my mind off of the scam that I posted yesterday. And #2) it's been awhile since I've been In front of the camera. Also, I love watching other actors work and seeing how they handle them self on set.  This has me thinking about trying other jobs behind the camera. I've done PA work and loved it but I'm worried ill get stuck there and ill never get back in front of the camera. I guess I'll think about it some more while I wait to get called to set.               (Prop they gave me.) PART2: So we filmed a scene towards the end of the movie where we wait for the magic words," Are there any questions?" And we all jump out of our seats. So far i...

Hello Again! I know it's been awhile but I have FINALLY moved to Austin, Texas and I feel right at home! Also the weather today has been wonderful so I thought to myself, "Time to stay indoors and find auditions!" A lot has happened since moving here. I got rejected(BADLY) by a top talent agent. Got new headshots:   Got cast on a couple of projects, but there's one I really want to talk about...... So, I'm not into bashing companies and people because that is not in my nature...so as much as I want to...I'll leave out their names(even though I really REALLY want to put them down!). But if you're in the Houston area I wouldn't mind telling you the company name in an email. Anyways.... I got an audition about a company who's looking for talent,no experience necessary, and it pays(RED FLAG #1). So I go to the building and there's a young man ahead of me and I can hear his audition pretty well. I get handed the same sides as he did to l...

HELLO ALL! So I  finally got the chance to head back home to Texas and while I was there I scheduled a photo shoot with Beverly Guhl! She does amazing head shots and I'm so lucky that I found her website! Take a look at some of the pictures: I'm SOOO impressed with her work! I will definitely go back to her in the future. Plus she's a total sweetheart!!! Check out her website HERE .  Also check out my imdb page !  XOXO, Ally

I honestly hate writing about myself. It's so awkward! I don't want to sound too formal, but I don't want to be all over the place! So I guess I'll have to start from the beginning.(This might take awhile...) I've always had this crazy thought in my head that maybe, just maybe , I could be an actress. And it wasn't always an actress. Somedays it would be a singer, dancer,or even a costume designer! I had to have an "un-normal, un-boring"   job! Being an entertainer was something I couldn't shake! Nobody else in my family(except for my younger sister) showed interest in this field so I was really confused! But my confusion quickly changed transparent! It was totally unexpected but completely worth it!  My mom was taking my sister to this summer acting workshop so naturally I followed. When we got there the director wanted me to audition as well since there wasn't a lot of kids joining this year. The audition was to sing a song...I cho...
