Week 175: How Do you Manage Your Time?

Weekly Written Review

Another week lining me up and pointing me towards a very acting focus journey.

Sunday, January 19, 2014

* Attended Gloria Gifford's Conservatory annual open-class. Thanks for the invite Francis L. It was another acting conformation. I want it and its my sheer focus unlike ever before. With that additional confirmation I decided not to shoot the under developed Late-Night music video idea I had in mind.

* Worked an Arctic Monkey's music video but for the first time I left set before the wrap time. I was suppose to get paid $150.00 cast but they choose to pay me $100.00 because of my early departure. Hye, I had an emergency, kind of sort of. Truthfully, I had to be at another set. Thank God for Lyft. Funny thing is, I was going to use Uber but randomly I got a email an hour or two before. Its stated they haven't heard from me in a while and bestowed me with a $25.00 discount. They trip cost $53.00 and I only paid $28.00. Everything worked out great.

* I left the music video to participate in a Youtube/Fox Digital project with the 5 Second Films Crew.

* Hair cut

* Mayme A. Clayton visit

* Almost went to the movies in Culver City to see the Hobbit (part 2) but I did not feel like paying $12.50. They had no student discounts either. lol...

Final Thoughts

This week 2 or 3 people asked me how do I manage me time. They're asking me this question knowing they have problems managing their own. How do I answer that?...When your focused, passionate, determined and obsessed. I think it comes with the territory.

Myself and Terri acted in the skit. It should come out pretty nice. Its about my character bringing his white girl friend to his HBCU campus for the first time. .

Final Thoughts

If I wasn't swift, I could of missed this opportunity. I received an obscure email on Monday, replied back and the audition was set the next day. The rest is history. I can't wait to see the final product. The headline will read, "Lord Crandberry Goes Viral."
