How sad is this? Before I joined the Army, I was trying to get into stunts. There really was only so much that I could do at age 17, as far as networking and traveling. But every single time that I got a call for a gig, I was unable to take it for some reason or another. Usually out of town for the day, or had an event that could not be rescheduled. No matter what, I couldn't take the job.
So after a year of telling stunt coordinators that I can't take their job, while really wanting to, I decided to take a sabbatical from trying, and enlisted in the Army.
Now that I've graduated film school (yes I graduated, and thank you). I'm attacking stunts full bore. Except for this one short trip to New York and Israel. I'll be back in LA at the end of the month, but since I scheduled this trip I've had to turn down and pull out of several projects. I'm so bummed that this time is starting out just like before. I'm a little mad, but not too worried. If I've had this many offers this soon, I should be doing just fine.
Though, it's still an exciting time for me. Every new email or phone call is a potential new job.
