Cora's Venture

Cora has enjoyed acting so much, she's interested in pursuing it a bit "for real." 

Auntie Mel used to have a side business shooting headshots, so on the Fourth when she was over, we set up a photo shoot in the living room. 

I think they came out marvelously!
 

She's signed up on an acting web site, and once she had her headshots, she could start submitting (applying) for things. She got something the very first week - an unpaid bit of "extra" or background work that happened to be close to home.

It was fun being on an actual working set and have a glimpse at how things work.

Cora has since had a couple of audition requests, which these days happen primarily online. You film yourself and send it in through the web site - nice because it cuts down on all the driving into Hollywood or Santa Monica. 

This was our initial setup for filming.

Stace and Cora built a better setup with PVC pipes and an old bedsheet. This way she can film easier in her room. We'll think about getting a darker color sheet.
