Another Tanky

Just got back from a Commercial Audition.

And yeah, also in Mandarin Chinese.

I bombed it.

Totally bombed it.

For the first time in my acting life, I have never had a Casting Director asking me to do a scene 3 times... He didn't like the first take, and then the second, and then the third.

Even worst... At the end of the reading, they need to take some headshots of me...

"Wayne, act surprised."

So I did. And the photographer said.."That's totally fake. Do it again!&q...Read more

The SUCKY Feeling

I'm sure this have happened to many actors and models.

The feeling of "SUCKY" after an unsuccessful audition.

Or rather, after an audition, you realized that there are so many other approaches that you could do to make the scene (audition) work.

Yesterday, I went and auditioned for the short film "Red Shoes" - Directed by the talented Li-Anne Huang. (You can check out the two trailers that she has on her website.) After viewing the...Read more

Looking Ahead...

It turned out that I didn't get to work on Turn the River last week.
