February and March 2016
Making Progress.
As mentioned last time, this year is about finishing things I'd started. It's also about sharing more of the work I've been doing and the people I've been working with and taking next steps. To that end, here's a list of links that will be of interest:
- Blog Post: Casting Meme: Indie Film Diversity - a post about the learning process I went through in casting Meme as it relates to the recent Oscars and how Indie Films can/should be better about casting with diversity in mind.
- Videos: Meme YouTube Playlist all six Wotan Lager beer commercials (2 commercials each with English, German, and Spanish versions) are available to watch now. They're only 30 seconds each and a lot of fun. Give them a look.
- Business: 4MileCircus is officially in the business of Social Media. Need help with social media account management? We're here to help you.

Three Questions
with Sarah Schoofs
Three questions is all about sharing more about the fun people that I have had the pleasure of working with. I first met Sarah Schoofs when casting for Meme. She was delightful when I first met her and I made the decision very quickly that she was the person to play Jennifer, the film's main character. She proved similarly delightful to work with throughout the long process of shooting Meme and on several other small projects we worked on along the way.
What do you do?
I am an actor / muse, (muse meaning I stand naked in a room full of clothed people while they draw me.. I am a socially acceptable stripper.) I also am good at dying.. Though I am starting to think my type is sliding past 'victim' into 'villain' mode.. Two different features I filmed in 2015, one I "had killed more people than John Wayne Gacy, Ted Bundy & Henry Lee Lucas combined, several times", and in another film I annihilated a planet.. I perhaps need to reevaluate my type. :-/
Why do you do it?
I am a socially acceptable stripper to pay rent. I am an actor because it is my passion and I am miserable if I do not have a project to work on or a project to look forward to and research. When I leave a film set, no matter how long of a day it is, I am on cloud nine. I am giddy. I love actors (which is why I probably always date them.. Working on that..) I've learned so much from every film crew I have worked with about professionalism & how to get shit done, but still have a kick-ass time.
That's all a lie. I do it for free food.
What do you want to share?
I am single and hairy Italians seem to be my type..
I like Taylor Swift, but refuse to acknowledge myself as a 'Swifty'.
I have a phobia of shit falling on me, so it hasn't been a good month for said phobia in NYC as of late.
Oh.. And upcoming projects..
