Went to visit family in town, ended up on the Backstreet Boys Instagram. (The one holding a Starbucks cup, naturally.) Eight year-old me is dancing in place, unable to speak through all the excitement. Followed by a hand on the hip, inquisitive glance to my twenty-something self, “You didn’t see The Backstreet Boys because you went to a play instead? … Is Jim Carrey in it?” If we’re being real, though: Reading an announcement in the newspaper about the Backstreet Boys coming to town way back in the ’90s was the first time I ever realized groups like that had a whole touring crew, and if an awkward, incredibly shy little kid in Orange County could ever do something like that. From my twenty-something self to that eight year-old: Not bad, kid. Not bad. (Blanked out a bullying remark caught in the comments, ‘cause ain’t nobody got time for that.)

"Closed mouths don’t get fed."

— A friend told me this, driving down the 134 freeway late at night after a shoot that fulfilled a personal goal I’d previously considered out of reach. Lived by it ever since.

Couple weeks ago, I had an opportunity to serve as Assistant Director on a friends spec commercial. A fun, messy time was had.

Also, huge congrats to one of our actors, Greg Kashmanian, who a few days ago booked a national TV spot!

You make a choice. Then you work like hell to ensure it was the right one. No going back. No tapping out. A solid cocktail helps.
