The Hollywood Reporter has a new article on the mega-production structure that is the new William F. White Centre in the city of Toronto. There is no doubt that Los Angeles has been shooting itself in the foot with taxes for film shoots, but this type of news just serves us as a definite reminder that production is heading elsewhere. Toronto and Dubai, alongside France and Barcelona seem to be the closest at replacing Hollywood.

Everyone needs to eat. And pay bills, and classes, rent, gas…etc. But as an actor you have to be careful with what “Day Job” you get.

Soon “Fame” will be coming to a theater near you. It was a classic, they are making it into a disgrace. Next thing you know they will be remaking “Grease” or “Pajama Party”. Listen, I know we need more musicals in film, but not cheesy, formulated, unoriginal teen productions without pazazz! I love that modern days have good movies that integrate music like: Chicago, Moulin Rouge, Hairspray, Sweeny Todd…(have you noticed the best musical features come from really good theatrical musicals?)… and on the other end of the spectrum we get the Step up (1 and 2!!!!)

 Several readers have asked if I was going to post about Michael Jacksons death. Ive held out and restrained from making any comment so far because of the utter overload of fake/real/rumors/news on his death, his state of mind and body prior to, and his life in general. I believe most sites (including some news sites of reputable name) have turned Michaels’ death into pure sensationalism. I know regardles how controversial his life had been, if I were his family I would not appreciate so many people not involved with him speculating and causing new and worse rumors to arise. There have been very few sites and programs that have treated his death as what it is: a tragic loss of an incredibly talented artist.
No matter what artistic form; music, acting, writing, directing, painting…etc. Losing someone who has made such a difference in the world, the industry…

James Cameron is creating a closer relationship between two world that up to now mainly collaborated by simply using eachothers marketing push to sell more of their own: the video game publishers and the movie industry. Now though, in his upcoming “Avatar” (a 3-D movie using even some actual footage from the game) is changing that. As an actor, tell me, are you worried that these types of movies (as technology improves 3D) will take away the jobs of real people? Or do you feel encouraged that hollywood expands its horizons to include new media producers and people with different interests? For the full article…Click Here.

Is seems as though the movie “Quantum Solace” is already doing horribly and leaving the hardest audience (critics) cold. This is why you should always attempt to book a new job before the official reviews come out. Imagine this: if the movie is a success, your next gig will have a much larger audience, BUT if your movie bombs, atleast you have a chance to redeem yourself and a secured paycheck!!!! If on the other hand you dont book it, you risk the bad reviews affecting future employers.SO remember:…
