VIP Talent Connect Success Story Update!

Posted on June 11th, 2010 by admin

dg-231x300A happy ‘hello!’ to you all, and I hope you’re enjoying the Summer weather! This is the first edition of a quarterly newsletter I am beginning in order to provide an easy way to update everyone I know about the professional goings-on in my life. I hope you enjoy what you read, as most of you are a very large part of why I am finally able to do this. In advance, I’d like to thank you for being my friends Here it goes…..

2010 started off with a bang! Early in January, my good friend, Mark Schoenfeld, advised me to begin auditioning for some theatre projects. I followed his advice, and within the week, landed the leading role as “Rose,” in the musical Sleeping Beauty for Galli’s Fairytale Theatre in Manhattan. The show ran for 3 weeks, and it was a fantastic opportunity to get my feet wet in this crazy city’s theatre scene! Shortly thereafter, I became the host of the New York public access show called Extreme Art Television for The Society of Unique Artists. It’s been amazing to experience New York art at it’s finest and interview some of the most cutting-edge artists in the world! In early February, my friend Schoolly D, a legendary recording artist and producer, listened to a partial track I had recorded and invited me to his studio to write and record some songs. Within a few hours we laid down a few really exciting tracks, and we’re continuing to brainstorm some great ideas. I was also involved in the making of his newest music video for the track, “Just Can’t Help Myself.” It was a completely crazy, funny, zany day, and the video turned out really comedic and light-hearted. In early March, at the world-wide premiere of the documentary We Live in Public, about/starring the social media pioneer Josh Harris, Josh personally asked me to present the official We Live in Public uniform jacket to the host of the evening’s events, Adrien Grenier. That was quite an honor!

During the VIP Talent Connect Event on March 13th, I was able to reconnect with the completely fabulous and always stylish, Jess Zaino! That very day, she cast me in the spec commercial she was producing for Brooklyn Lager. What a great day! I was also featured in 4 scenes on an episode of Gossip Girl in which Sara Conte cast me. A few weeks later, my friendJohn Buffalo Mailer asked me to audition for a role in Tell Me the Truth, a short experimental film by the Emmy awardwinning director, Gena Konstantinakos. I nailed the audition and was cast in the film alongside greats such as John Buffalo Mailer (Wall Street 2), Meital Dohan (Weeds), and Steve Colman (Russell Simmons’ Def Poetry). WOWOWOW, what an AMAZING opportunity! Working with people of this level was a dream come true, and Gena’s directorial style was magical!

April was a whirlwind of adventure! Another Emmy award winning director, Benedict Hadley, had begun filming a reality show about VIP, entitled VIP/NYC, and I was cast in a leading role. I was instructed to carry a KodakZi8 camera with me at all times, filming myself throughout the course of my adventures. Some of these adventures included volunteering some time at the 3 Dot Dash International Youth Leadership Summit for global peace, hosted by the great producer, Nile Rogers. I also documented my double-life as a regular on-air model for the QVC Network, modeling cosmetics for (the fabulous) Laura Geller. A ridiculously talented guy, Benedict also wrote an OUTSTANDING script called Boost. He cast me as the principle role of “Keran,” the best friend of the lead character, “Simah.” After spending loads of time filming theElectronic Press Kit (EPK), we are expected to begin shooting sometime in the late summer. I couldn’t be more excited (and impatient) to get started! In late April, I had the experience of a lifetime at the Twitter #140Conf, where I was not only able hang out with Ivanka Trump backstage, but also had the AMAZING opportunity to interview the great and powerful TV personality, Donny Deutsch! I was so nervous my head was spinning, and I think it turned out pretty darn good!

After attending the awards ceremony at the Babelgum Film Festival in May, my good friend, director Ali Hossaini, consulted with me about a screenplay I have slowly begun to outline, and also the development of a book of poetry I’ve been writing in dribs and drabs for years. As summer continues, I hope to delve further into these personal projects. In mid-May, I volunteered 5 days of my life at the HOBY, the Hugh O’Brien Youth Leadership summit, held in Central PA. During these 5 days, I facilitated an amazing group of high school sophomores as they learned about the art and selflessness of community service, made pertinent political decisions as they sat in the PA House of Representatives, and made great personal strides as human beings. It was an amazing and rewarding week! To top off a crazy month, I also began modeling for (the totally awesome) Kate Somerville Skin Health Line on QVC.

2010 has been quite a year, thus far. I can’t wait to see what the summer will bring!

I have devised a list of goals to accomplish until I update you again. Here they are!

1) Create my own weekly show on YouTube

2) Start auditioning as often as humanly possible

3) Finish my reel (I’m still waiting on bits of promising footag

4) VISIT HOLLYWOOD (finally!)

5) Finish my website (looong overdue)

Thank you for reading up on my life as of late. I hope this update finds you happy, healthy, and enjoying the sunshine!

About VIP Talent Connect

VIP Talent Connect is not an agency, not a school, not a management company- VIP Talent Connect is a revolutionary, one of a kind, way for new talent to create personal and professional relationships with leading tastemakers and industry leaders in the entertainment field. We invite you to join us and have discussions with the VIP Talent Connect guests in this unprecedented gathering of powerful entertainers, artists, producers and style gurus.

There are many different avenues to enter the entertainment business. Models can attend “free” open calls at various agencies in any major city. However, many persons interested in a modeling career are not aware of exactly what is involved in attending “free” open calls. Many models are confused at an open call when certain less than reputable companies demand upfront fees for a variety of usually unneeded items, especially “professional” photographs.

VIP Talent Connect Danielle Guldin wearing Jules Smith Designs Bracelet at Corbin Bleu event NYC

VIP Talent Connect danielle

VIP Talent Connect Event Director featuring a beautiful design from Jules Smith Designs featured on Life.com. It was the hottest event in town as the stars came out to celebrate Corbin Bleu’s unveiling at Tony Di Napoli.

Gina Nigrelli’s JULES SMITH collection is reminiscent of influential runway looks of decades past, infused with modern day influences. Gina’s aesthetic marries her unique contemporary point-of-view with the classic statement-making trends of the 70’s and 80’s. She’s identified the free-spirited essence of the 70’s and the glamour and excess of the 80’s as her brand inspirations. JULES SMITH styles include bold cuffs, star motifs, engraved monochromatic animal print pieces, chain link silhouettes, vintage charms, rings and bangles.
“My collection pays homage to the iconic trends in fashion,” reflects Nigrelli. “One strong accessory, such as a dominant necklace, cuff or bold pair of earrings, completes a look that is timeless and effortlessly chic.”

Great job and everyone at VIP Talent Connect looks forward to more from Danielle. We know one day you will be on the cover of Vogue Magazine.

VIP Talent Connect Maxim Boadie

“Bodie” real name Matt Bodenheimer came to our office on May 18, 2009. Bodie is from Virginia. He attended his first VIP Talent Connect event July 2009 where he met Ryan Colby. This is what Bodie wrote in his paragraph on why he wants to get in the industry one year ago:

“Though my own personal journey, I’ve learned that entertainment industry is anything but predictable. There is no given or specific path on how to make or break your career. Although I have learned many things from my experiences, I feel that I have only gotten my feet wet in terms of my goals and capabilities for the future. This year, I want to get my food in the door and take my acting career to the next level. I see myself no constricting my acting opportunities solely on the DC area. I hope to be working on more professional projects and be able to get my name out. I want to find more work, go on more auditions, work in DC, New York, and Philadelphia because I know the harder I work, it is only a matter of time before I can get my career rolling. In one year, I see myself surrounded by people who believe in my abilities and are will to help me find the opportunities and I in return am willing to put the effort to try my hardest to put myself out there and not miss out on opportunities. If there is one think I have learned, it is that opportunities don’t come to you, you have to go out and find them.” Congratulations “Matt” we always knew with the right connections you had what it takes to be a star!

Co-Writer Sought for Screenplay in NYC!

Posted on February 1st, 2010 by admin

Co-Writer Sought for Screenplay in NYC!

I’ve been working in production in New York for over ten years and
have recently begun developing my own projects under my company
banner, Notable Features, alongside my role as Vox3 Films’ Head of
Production.
poetry
Last year I applied for the Sundance Creative Producing Grant and made
to the last round before getting nixed This year I will reapply with
this project. Specifically, I am hoping to bring on another
Writer/Co-Producer who can give a meaningful and credible voice to one
of the two main characters in the story, as well as be a creative and
logistical partner in fleshing out the role of Harlem, a central
location and in my view, also a key “character”.

Without such a partnership, the credibility and depth of this story
will certainly fall short.

Over the past year I have been working on a dramatic character piece
that will be shot on a shoestring budget in Manhattan. HARMONY
(working title) is the story Lena, a troubled young Russian emigrant
who goes adrift in New York City after the elderly woman she cares for
suddenly dies.

The film, inspired by the highly publicized case of a woman who
underwent a dissociative fugue in New York in 2009, should possess a
dreamlike quality, focusing on the details of New York as seen through
Lena’s eyes. She will bring the perspective of an outsider freed from
societal dictates. In her enchanted New York City, intimate and
unlikely relationships form out of this newfound liberation. She
eventually finds her way to Harlem and there befriends T.K., a single
father trying to make a living for his young son as an ambulette
driver. Lena eventually falls for T.K. after discovering his innate
talent as a spoken word poet. She helps T.K. prepare for a live
performance that is supposed to be broadcast. Soon after, she sees
the possibility of T.K. reuniting with his son’s mother and she
realizes that she has no place in his makeshift family.

I have a screenwriter on board (Ivan Weiss) and a Director (Tatia
Pilieva). I’ve known and worked with Tatia a number of times in the
past, and she, an immigrant from the Republic of Georgia, will bring a
personal voice to this project.

I would very much appreciate you forwarding this blog entry to anyone who
may be interested in meeting with me. I have a long treatment that I
can forward to anyone who is interested.

Thank you in advance for your help.

All best,

Jenny Schweitzer

Audition Strategies: an Actor’s Workshop from a Producer’s Perspective

Posted on February 1st, 2010 by admin

Audition Stategies is BACK!
Audition Strategies: an Actor’s Workshop from a Producer’s perspective
logo2
Join us in the widely popular Audition Workshop!

When Sean Young, donning a leather costume, mask, and a whip, stormed into the studio demanding an audition for the role of Catwoman in Batman Returns, director Tim Burton hid under his desk.
Case-in-point: Persistence vs Pestering

When asked to read for a role, Shelly Winters once slammed down her two Oscars and asked the casting director, “Ya still want me to audition?” She got the part.
Case-in-point: Confidence vs Cockiness

The night before his audition, Mel Gibson got a broken nose and disconnected jaw in a bar brawl. Director page1George Miller loved the look and cast him as Mad Max.
Case-in-point: Looking the Part vs Being Yourself

AUDITION STRATEGIES is a one-day, intensive workshop for actors who want to learn simple and effective techniques, facts, and tips that will get them the parts they want.

Who Should Attend: Aspiring actors who have talent, passion, discipline, and even agents, but hit a wall every time they audition, never able to pinpoint exactly what goes wrong.

Why This Class: This workshop is NOT an acting class. It is not conducted by an acting teacher, a coach, an agent or even a casting director. Instead, it is conducted by the casting DECIDER, aka the producer/director. He is the one who actually sees what mistakes actors make and knows the dos and don’ts of auditioning.

What You Learn: In this 1-day, intensive, hands-on workshop, actors will go through each step of the audition process and learn fast, simple and effective ways to build your portfolio, your confidence, and your chance to get the part. Participants will quickly become adept at handling real-world situations through lectures, Q&A’s, and demonstrations, providing them with the tips and tricks necessary to capture the audience- the Producer

More About FOX Reality’s “Solitary”
Solitary is the thinking man’s reality show. Part SAW, part 2001: A Space Odyssey, part Portal Aside from being thought provoking it also offers up plenty of grim and guilty pleasures.

Andrew Sabat 1st Place Finisher 3.0


This is how it essentially works: 9 people are quarantined in they’re own personal pod. They’re food and sleep deprived. They are also made to undergo maddening and near torturous “treatments”, Like sitting on a bowling ball for an hour or having to smell the worst smells you can possibly imagine (such as “liquid ass”) or having to keep their tongue fixed to a plate of glass. Anyone can quit anytime they want to. All they have to do is push a big red button conveniently placed in their pod. The first one to push it gets kicked out of the game. As long as you don’t push the button first, you’re still in. Nobody knows how anyone else is doing during “treatments”. No one knows who has or hasn’t pushed the button.

RobRob

It’s a total mind screw. Now add to this mix a computer companion named “VAL” who’s voice is the only company any of the contestants have during their stay in Solitary. Part sadist, part confidante, and sometimes friend, a slightly less sinister version of 2001: A Space Odyssey’s HAL, VAL is the game show host for the new millennium.

It’s fascinating to watch how people react when pushed to the limits of their physical and emotional endurance and it’s one of the most interesting pieces of television out there right now. It’s no surprise to me that it’s the most successful show in Fox Reality Channel’s history.

“When Joey Married Bobby” – Starring Lady Bunny – TAG You’re It!

Posted on January 28th, 2010 by admin

You are cordially invited to the hilarious new comedy When Joey Married Bobby opening February 6, 2010 at Theatre 80 St. Marks Place.

“When Joey Married Bobby”, starring Lady Bunny, two-time S.A.G.Award Nominee Tina McKissick and introducing former Detroit Tiger Pitcher Matthew Pender as Joey, opens February 6, 2010 for an open-ended run at Off-Broadway house Theatre 80 St. Marks, between 1st & 2nd Avenues.
main
From the comic mind of GLAAD Award winning playwright, William Wyatt (Peachtree Battle, A Sunday Afternoon At Loehmans, The Limousine Ride and Veranda) comes a tale about gay marriage in an ultra conservative household. Bright-eyed hunk Joey (Matthew Pender) has finally met the man of his dreams and ready to take a plunge into marriage. The thought of a gay wedding has Joey’s southern socialite mother Sarah Edwards (Tina McKissick) in quite a tizzy. Worried that the news of her son’s nuptials might jeopardize her chances of winning “Christian of the Year,” Sarah stops at nothing to protect her name, image and reputation. The legendary Lady Bunny co-stars in the play as the power-wielding, Baptist Minister’s Wife, Charity Divine.
