A bit of a computer scare when I got home. Seems my External Hard drive stopped working. Yeah. Couldn’t open anything and all folders appeared to be empty. That’s a ton of music, Web site files, and everything else. Include all the files related to Radio Free Kanadia and the SkullCast
But fortunately, I turned everything off, waited about five minutes…
…and Lo and Behold! It worked again.
Good thing too.
It was almost enought to make me go over to the Dark Side.
The Day of the Audition. Before and after the audition, Phil discusses the audition process itself, how he’s feeling, performs his audition piece and rambles on.
The audition went well. You can here my thoughts on the audition before and after on the “skullCast” which you can find here. I think I got the date wrong in the first section of that podcast and kept referring to the day as “Sunday, September 11″. But hey, there are worse ways to screw up than just getting the date wrong.
Overall, the audition went well. It wasn’t perfect, but no audition ever is. I was feeling pretty good before going in, but when I walked into the room, my throat tightened up and I was slightly hoarse. I don’t think that hurt me too badly, but I just found it annoying.
I’m told that they will be contacting actors by September 18th, so I’ll hear by then.
Today I am running out to Mississauga for an audition.
The play is Hamlet.
No…I’m not auditioning for the role of Hamlet. I’m not a Hamlet type. If I’m lucky, I’ll get Claudius.
Of course, there is a chance that I could get the role of the Player. That’s something that fills me with some trepidation. If you don’t know why that would, I have three words “Two Short Greeks”. If you’re a newcomer here, you’ll really want the context, so take a look at that story from the last time I played the Player and you’ll understand why that makes me nervous.
I’m going to record a podcast with the iRiver immediately before and after the audition to give a sense of how that went.
In case you missed it, yeah, there’s an in frequently recorded podcast that I’m doing to record my acting experiences and such as they happen. Perhaps I should call it the “SkullCast”? You can find that here.
In the first episode of the new podcast, 2 days before an audition, Phil talks about the last audition he had, and takes stock of how he’s feeling about this upcoming audition
