Shows I've Seen

This was a lot of fun. I was a panelist with casting directors Billy DaMota, Chemin Barnard, and Pamela Staton at the Hollywood Black Film Festival. Our panel was called The Casting Process: How To Get Cast In Television, Film, and Commercials! and the crowd was small. I guess a 10am start-time is a little rough for Hollywood. LOL. But because there was a smaller group, I was able to really check out some actors whose vibes certainly made an impression.

Since they dropped off their headshots and resumés in the bin before our time together was through, I was able to come away with a short list of actors whose work I'd like to get to know. Those folks included Crescent Najeem, Randy Cohlmia (whose work I'd seen in Vise Grip a few months ago), Samantha Beaulieu, Elizabeth Goldstein (co-chair of the HBFF), Raymond Forchion (chair of the HBFF), Lanré, Pamela Shaddock, and Akim Black.

Good vibes from this group. Hope to be asked back again!
