Here are the outtakes from my short film, Bite Me. Previously, this was only available on the DVD screener copies sent out to various film festivals. This was a lot of fun. Beware NSFW, there is adult language.

Read MoreI had the honor of appearing in the SMOSH episode I’m Possessed! with founders Ian Hecox and Anthony Padilla. I played a demon with a resemblance to Darth Maul (but really a take on the demon in Insidious). My appearance is for a split second but it was so much fun. Got to be made up by a very talented makeup artist. She used an airbrush to do most of the makeup coverage and then added the fine details. It took about 2 hours and probably took that long to get cleaned up afterwards. Totally worth it. Here’s the episode: In case you blinked and missed it, here’s a still shot of me in the makeup room sans demon...
Read MoreBack 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)...
Read MoreI’ve smelled it on myself before. Desperation. One day, you’re on fire. You’re auditioning, getting callbacks, booking left and right, upside down, round and round. If you’re not auditioning, you’re booking. If you’re not booking, you’re already on set. Feels so good. Checks are in the mail. Then one day, the bottom drops out. A harsh winter hits. Famine. Why aren’t they calling? How come I’m not being sent out? FUD sets in. Fear. Uncertainty. Doubt. Don’t let it. It will mess you up at your next audition. The decision makers will smell it on you. See it on you. The camera picks up everything. They rarely...
Read MoreA little over a month ago I entered an online acting contest put on by Audition America. While they put the judging on hold until they can secure a TV deal, they have started posting contestants’ entries. I don’t know where anything stands with the contest but here’s my audition monologue via their YouTube channel. It’s one of my favorite monologues from one of my least favorite films. It was originally performed by John Travolta in Swordfish. If you want to grab the monologue yourself, visit Colin’s Movie Monologue Page. I’ve been using the site for years. View it and let me know what you think in the comments section....
