Week of September 3rd, 2012
Sorry, it’s been a while since I updated this. Last week was crazy busy and I just didn’t have the time or energy to update but tonight I can’t sleep so let’s see what comes out.
I had 4 shoots with Coleman last week that I was doing production management for, as well as some modeling. We had a ton of kids in the shoots. It was great, but definitely added a different element to the shoots. Juice boxes, Gogurts and cheese sticks became my best friend. It was pretty cool actually. They all did great and we had a fun time.
I shot another set of MetroBrokers TV spots. It’s in an interview format and we do one take so it can be a little nerve wracking when I keep messing up the person’s name. 🙂 It’s a lot of fun, though.
I also shot a music video on Sunday evening. This was probably one of the strangest and most fun acting jobs I’ve done. It was shot at a mexican night club, which I have never been to. I got there at 6 PM and the place was packed, I couldn’t even find parking. Everyone was dressed to the hilt (not sure that’s an expression, might be dressed to the hill…? Not sure, neither really make sense but I’m going with it). So the song was La Guerita Panchangera, which loosely translates to blond party girl. Ok, so it’s fitting. I know. The song is the story of a girl who likes to party at mexican clubs so the whole time I’m dancing. Like really dancing. In heels. AND I DIDN”T FALL DOWN. Not even once. Which is truly a miracle if you’ve seen me walk in heels (Mark, if you’re reading this stop laughing). So there I am dancing with various men, on stage, with my friends, etc. The thing was the club was really in full force and we were filming around it. It was hilarious. I got thrown on stage with the band and danced with them as they performed for the crowd. Thank god I’m not shy, right? Â I’m going to put some behind the scene pictures up so check them out. Seriously, so much fun.
This week I’m headed to Dallas for the Circle K golf tournament. I did it last year as well but this year I’m MC’ing the auction  as well. I’ve never MC’ed an auction so we’ll see how this goes. How hard can it be? Really? That hard. Shit. I’ll keep you posted on how this all plays out.
I have a shoot on Friday when I return and then I’m going camping for the weekend so it’s a busy, busy week and I’m sure I’m going to forget something important, like my luggage. So I’m writing little notes to myself all over. My email is filled with kari notes. Totally irrelevant thoughts that have floated into my head like puffs of cotton. I’m sure there’s a way to organize all this but I just haven’t quite figured it out yet. Help.
Now I must go to bed but I swear I’ll put up some pictures soon. I’m still waiting for the fitness ones from Louis and I have a few commercials and videos that should be ready soon. So tired. Night night friends.
Oh yeah, I filmed a commercial last weekend for a film festival so those pictures are below. I’ll give more details later. I’m really sleepy now.Â
