more *yawn*
I got up at 6am this morning to get to Fox studio lots by my call time of 8am... Haven't been up that early in a while, so I am *definitely* feeling it now!
The part was simple: It's for episode #16 when the main characters are looking through a database of missing asian (mostly) women. I think later on we also turn up dead; haha! So, we took a few pics with street clothing against various background and did the same thing wearing traditional garb. I brought my kimono along, so I took pics with that. Having a kimono around is GREAT because of the bit of extra money you get for wardrobe.
Now, i usually don't do background work because $126/ 8 hr day isn't that appealing and I could be doing something better. *However* this one was a 5 hour day with guaranteed full day's pay PLUS it being on the Fox lot, meant I was able to do drop offs at casting offices. I hit up offices for "Standoff," "House," "How I met you mother," etc. I also made a new friend at the "Standoff" production office through my other friend Adrian Zaw (www.myspace.com/adrianzaw). Anyhow, the episode that I'm in is #16, so keep an eye out! In addition, Adrian is William Chung, one of the 'featured' dead guys that will show up as part of a husband/wife couple.
So, after walking around the lot for half an hour and spreading the word of Junko, I returned to my day job feeling quite accomplished. For lunch, my boss made Spam ramen... my first real experience with da po' man's food. It wasn't bad, but three pan-cooked slices were quite enough. Would I eat it again? yes. But not anytime soon.
good grief... i need to get to bed and it's not even 9pm!!! sleep is good.
