Back to the Basics and On to the Future

I will be returning to the basics -- acting, reflecting, writing, reflecting, and preparing myself for the next steps in my career.

First stop: ADVANCED SCENE STUDY at the pristine STELLA ADLER STUDIOS in New York City.

I've also taken the GOLD'S GYM 12 WEEK CHALLENGE to get in shape for the camera (and my own health). It's time.

And then, of course, too, as mentioned above, I'll be reflecting on my past experiences. Thus, please check back in to see clips of my work, as well as updates of what lies yet undone.

2007 NYWIFT Muse Awards

My Muses and Mentors: Terry Lawler and Lamonia Brown from New York Women in Film & Television

2007 Hampton International Film Festival

I drove out (by car via ferry) to the Hampton International Film Festival to meet and assist at the New York Women in Film and Television annual Hampton party and ended up enjoying several other events staged there that weekend, as well -- including the Lifetime event on Saturday afternoon.

The big thrill of the weekend soared around the Hampton Women's Short Film selection in which six films, directed by women, were exhibited. Incredible. There's nothing as inspiring as seeing your fellow peers' works. Finally, I can officially say that I felt I belonged in a room with women who adore the same thing I do: movie-making.
