The Future Looks Bright~

Well, It's been a couple of weeks since I left a message....So, lets play catch up. I was happy to be part of an indie production called "RUNNING", were I play "Tony" .We just wrapped last week, and I had a great time working with such hard working professionals. Special Thanks to the "3rd Base Bar". Your hospitality was greatly appreciated , and the people were even better. Thanks for allowing us to come into your home. I'm soooo excited to say that I just got the "official" word that the T.V Pilot/ Web Series "Gutter Diaries"( A Mad Peacock Production) is in full swing. I was blessed to play the lead role as Gino. The whole cast is pumped up and ready to make something exciting. I love to see such great attitudes when it comes to putting a project together. Dir/writer Brady Kimball and Garrett Andrews are working hard non stop...that's commitment, and that's a project I will be proud to be part of. I think that's what makes the actor work that much harder. I know it's gonna be great!! Before I head off for that project, I'll be playing the lead role "Matt" , in a fast paced , action packed thriller called "ECHOES". This will be a Skeleton Key/ Creaky Gates Production. Director John Lapalm is coming all the way from California , to team up with Wanda Gates of Orlando. I just read the script, and all I can say is....WOW!! It's always good to get a role that gives you goose bumps!!!

I always like to sum up my blogs with a point....a reason for what I'm writing about. Today the reason is about "EXCITEMENT". What are you excited about?? For me, I can say I'm excited that my life is on track. I'm excited that I'm doing what I love daily . I can say that I am excited that I've never been happier. I'm excited that people are believing in me. I'm excited that bigger doors are now opening. Doors that I never thought would ever hear me knocking. My point is...are you doing what you love for the right reasons? No matter what it is? We all have levels of sacrifice and commitment. My level is no different then yours. Just make sure your doing it because you cant see yourself doing anything else. The Money, the toys, the recognition you get are just added bonuses. If your doing what you love,,,what you truly love, all those things come second. What should be first,,,is your commitment of respect and honesty to your craft....no matter what it is, not just acting . The biggest reward to me is "constant work". Being able to get up another day and head to the set, because someone else believed in me enough, and trusted me enough to bring there project to life. Trusting in Mike Santi , knowing that their reputation lies in my hands. If I care enough about being the best I can at what I love to do, then everything else just falls into place from there. I just know that life gives you what you accept. People see you for what you see in yourself....and people unfortunately will judge you based on that. Look at yourself in the mirror the next time you pass one...and ask yourself....What am I excited about?? You will be amazed at what comes to mind. Think about the answer, and see if your getting closer to happiness or further away. The good news is that Tomorrow is a new day,,,and you get a blessing from God everyday to start over if you choose,,,,How are you gonna see tomorrow...as a Blessing?? Or a Burden?? It all starts with a simple decision......BE EXCITED, and exciting things happen....it's a fact.....become a magnet to success. Exciting days are ahead,,,,,if that's what you choose. God Bless.....Michael.
