UPDATING PROFILES
Since I joined AFTRA, I had to go to Central Casting to let them know. It's an easy process. You go, you wait in line, tell them you've joined, show the proof and that's about it. They updated my photo as well, but I didn't really like the picture but was too lazy to say anything about it.
I'd lost my GPS so I had to print stuff out to get to my next destination. Joey's List had moved offices, so I had to go to Sherman Oaks to let them know I'd joined AFTRA. I could have just emailed them, but it's always good to visit them to let them know you're still alive. Besides, the last time I dropped off a payment, he said I should re-take a photo.
Joey was there along with his new hire Hans. Joey showed me how casting directors use his database. He said I should submit some pictures so the casting folks have additional looks to use to possibly book me on gigs. I told him I would. Hans also complimented me on the suit. That's the second time someone has said something. I guess it just fits real good because it's so tight and tailored. It's old school though and I wonder if it was my dad's or my brothers'.
Then I had lunch at some bakery. I had a pastrami sandwich that was about $5 but the damn drink I bought was $1.75 which made the total over $8. Oh well, I figured I'd treat myself since I was out and about. It's funny how I consider that a treat. That's how cheap I am.
The next stop was Jeff Olan's office where I told them I was AFTRA. I showed them my card and heard Milton in the background. I asked if he got in trouble when he cast me on Private Practice but I got up late and didn't make the call. The night before was when I got into the first fight with Janet so I suppose that might have been an omen. He didn't see me, but said everything was cool.
Finally, the last stop was Sandi Alessi. I haven't ever gotten any work from them, but since I'd registered with them I figured it wouldn't hurt to increase my chances. The funny thing was, I saw the same guys from Central work their way to the same casting offices. I guess everyone does it since you have to try to get work any way you can.
