Acting in Austin

OH HAPPY DAYS! I was booked as an extra for an industrial video shoot for a big name computer company! I've always wanted to do at least one industrial in my acting career, just to see what it's like. At this shoot they were showing off a couple of printers and their wifi printing features. My role as an extra was to mostly sit and "work" on the computer, or chat with a near by co-worker. Along with video they also took photos. The production company was really cool and the director was nice. It was a pretty long shoot. The call time was 9am, We started filming around 10am, lunch was around 1or 2pm, and I wrapped around 6/7pm. Also, 6/7pm is when I found a parking ticket on my car windshield. :/ .... (lunch time) One of the actresses said she usually books a couple of project every month (mostly commercials) and that supports her. It got me thinking....maybe I could try auditioning for more commercials. I would say I'm pretty photogenic and I take dire...

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...
