Resident Evil: Face of the Fan

Back in October I entered a contest to win a walk-on role in the upcoming Resident Evil sequel, Resident Evil: Retribution. The contest was put on by Face of the Fan and I heard about it on Facebook (of course). I had to send in a 1-minute or less video of me talking about being a fan, which movie I liked most, and I had to act out a line from my favorite film in the franchise. I had heard about the contest late so I threw something simple together in my office to meet the deadline. Turns out that simple with a touch of personality goes a long way. Even though I didn’t win, they did call me directly to ask whether I had a passport (of course I do) which means 1) they watched the video and 2) they were interested enough to consider me in the unofficial “finals.” I know they called others but they didn’t call everyone. So, I walk away with an A for effort. Now without further ado, here’s my audition video.

BTW, that gun in the video will be making another appearance in the near future. My character in my webseries pilot uses it as his standard issue sidearm. You get brownie points for guessing 1) what model gun it is and 2) what very well-known mainstream movie character carries this particular firearm. Oh, brownie points = the same thing as an A for effort so don’t expect anything in the mail.
