Acting in Austin

Is it 2014 already?! I guess time does fly by when you're having fun! This holiday season has been the busiest for me EVER! I've book some 2-3 day extra gigs. Those are always the best because not only is  it pay for each day, but you also get to make a lot of cool friends. I'm not sure how much i can say about the projects but once they're released I'll make sure to post picture and blog all about it. ;) And in other news…. I've been cast in the short film "The Wild" directed by Carleton Ranney. This movie is a future, sci-fi, thriller and i'm so excited to be apart of it! We start filming next week. Today I have a make-up test for my "drug addict" look. :) Once we start filming I'll make sure to post lots of pictures on here! I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year! Make this year count! Ally

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...
