I went to rehearsal last night for a couple of hours before I realized that I really didn't need to be there at all. :-\ They were working on zombie interaction with a fight choreographer and I have one scene where I shoot some zombies, but that's all I do.  I don't otherwise interact with them, so I didn't need to be there...so I left...with permission from the director.

Quote
Casting the future of 'Star Trek'
...
Unusual looking people were also encouraged to come: "Talent with interesting and unique facial features such as long necks, small heads, extremely large heads, wide-set eyes, bug eyes, close-set eyes, large forehead, short upper lip, pronounced cheekbones, over- or undersized ears and/or nose, facial deformities, ultra plain-looking people, ultra perfect-looking people, pure wholesome looks, twins, triplets, emaciated talent."
...

Tough criteria - but I bet this guy makes it:

I was conversing with the youngest of our regular cart-wranglers at work (regular meaning not still in high school and therefor working during the daytime), a fellow named Justin who thinks he knows a lot about movies.  Ratatouille had just been released on DVD, and we had it on sale, but Justin didn't think the movie was all that great.

So I asked him what his favorite CGI animated films were.  "The live-action Transformers," he offered.  "And the live action Fantastic Four - Rise of the Silver Surfer, that was cool."

The line between what is animated and what isn't is blurring.  And some of the audience is pretty well blurred, too.   :-\

And, with perfect timing, here's an article in Premiere Magazine about what's happened in CGI over the last quarter century.

I think Cason should try out---he has a lot of experience being an alien!

BTW, the producer of this film is the guy who has decided to do his own Johnny Mercer documentary. Waah....

Good morning, all!  The Big Meeting is at 4:30, attorney and two brothers.  M has told Randy he's going to behave this week, whatever that means.  I want to chill out and remain calm all day because I don't want this going to pieces this afternoon.  I'll be glad to see the taxes and this round of nonsense accomplished.

This morning, a stop to the estate bank and then back here for a day of work on the Men's Chorus december concert and Ashley's orchestrations.

Lordy!

Before I forget, I have a question for all you DRs: when it comes to car rentals, which company do you prefer?  I rented my car yesterday from Hertz and I am appalled at the cost for the week!

Tuesday morning greetings!  Back at work for a shortened workday - I'll be leaving at 3pm in order to be at Montgomery Inn with Birthday Boy DH Richard for the 6pm celebration.

DR Elmore - Glad to know that you're here in our Zip Code for a while and hope everything goes smoothly this afternoon.

DR elmore - Have a calm, cool, collective and constructive day and meeting this afternoon.

As for car rental companies, I usually go with Enterprise too.  Their online specials/discounts are consistently pretty good deals in my experience.

If in Dayton you paid more than $172/week you didn't shop wisely.

Best rates for Hertz are from thier HLE (Hertz Local Edition) offices, NOT the airport or major hotels.

To shop competition, I use Expedia.com (They quoted lots of choices for &172/week)

Enterprise/Budget and Hertz HLE offered  the same price.

(All quotes are for an Economy car)
