Strike OUT!

As many of you may have heard, the WGA strike is over! Yesterday, the resolution to lift the strike was passed by over 92% of the guild members, and now all that's left is for the guild to ratify the new contract which sounds like it should be just a formality. Now, let's hope SAG gets negotiating with the Producers before that contract expires at the end of June...

Two auditions today. One, was a non-union commercial for Royal Purple Motor Oil, and I had to pretend I was fixing an engine. Engines are not my specialty, but it was fun, so we'll see.

The second was actually for the commercial department at Brass Artists Agency. They had me read 3 pieces of commercial copy on camera, and said they would call if they were interested. They already called earlier tonight wanting to schedule a meeting with one of the agents for next week, so I guess they liked it.

Oh, and thanks to those of you who checked out my brief appearance on General Hospital on Monday. I appreciate all the e-mails of support!

  1. Boehm,

    I enjoy reading your blog, I check it almost every day! That is great to hear, about the strike. I am sick of American Gladiators, American Idol and Dexter's I have already seen and clicking them up OnDemand. Have you ever seen the movie called "The Godfather of Green Bay"? Indie flick shot in GB that, inexplicably, had Tony Goldwin and Lauren Holly in staring roles???

  2. Hey pal -
    Thanks for reading! I will try to keep updating regularly. Hopefully, I'll have more and more exciting things to report ;)

    Strike: New TV should be just around the corner!

    The Godfather of Green Bay: Never heard of it. Any good?

  3. Do you have a video clip of your role on General Hospital?

  4. Unfortunately, I don't have a video clip from GH. Knowing that I would just be in a passing glimpse or two, I didn't try to get it on tape.

    Hopefully, next time, I'll have a more substantial role and then I'll surely get some footage ;)
