It was a kick when my Pharmacist said..."Hey I saw you in a magazine!" "where? What magazine?"
Turns out to be a Trade journal.  Ill take it!
I am working for the same folks again tomorrow, a 10 hour gig.  This time I am told I will have a wife! Hot dawg!  I even was told to bring pajamas! o(:-) @O@

There are multiple clothes changes.  From athletic wear to everyday casual.
I was promised a dvd. This is my second time with this outfit, so there is some raport.

I have a shot at a SAG feature film this Sunday... or see my Grandson play high School baseball.
Adios feature film.
The game is in San Juan Capistrano.  A lovely place!

Did the commercial. I had to take a fall and pretend to be sick.  I actually was, but they never knew.
Also walked with a cane and had my arm in a cast!  I also fall while getting off the couch and struggle to call 911.   Well we were fed well and paid.  I am promised a DVD, but I know these things take time.  This young man played my son.  He has been in this business 6 months and doing nicely.
He will be hosting a building show soon.

It is for a medical group.  The only shots I have I took.  So none of me.  I will link the dvd as soon as I receive it. It can take weeks or months!
I can take a photo of me lying on the floor  @O@  because that is really all it is.
I struggle for the phone and call 911.  So this is acting?

Don't get excited, Jerry - Ricky and Lucy filmed in PJ's, yes, but they always had twin beds.   {:-P;;

I seems strange that they don't tell you when a commercial will air, or when your face will be in a magazine.  I guess that would be hard to keep track of, and, also, once you sign the release papers, they are free to do what and whenever they wish.

Exactly right!
The current one I am doing  are pretty good guys.  We have excellent raport, so I believe they will let me know.  Tomorrow, Thursday will be my third time with them.  The others are always new faces, so I think I must be doing it right.

Finished the BIG commercial today, it will be seen on Dish TV, ( or did he say Direct TV?) the Viera channel.  I have no idea what that is.  We will have a link so I can post it here.
I took one pic of the editing equipment.  Looks cool!
Look at that keyboard!

In case any new members take my caption "Almost Famous". it is only a joke.  Not at all serious.
