Head Shots and Green Tea

Another gorgeous day in sunny California - after watching the footage from "Laura and Her Song" that I picked up yesterday from John Cha, and some encouragement from my girlfriend, today has become "head shot day!" :D

If you're a photographer, here are a few tips on taking headshots, or if you're the one getting your headshots done, here are a few tips for you!

I'm feeling a tad under the weather at the moment, so we'll be making a trip to Jamba Juice and I've already started the day with a bunch of green tea... I'll post the headshots soon.

Or, if you have any suggestions for places around LA to take 'em or on how to take 'em, leave it in the comments below!

UPDATE: Here's a great post on the difference between commercial and theatrical headshots - worth the read!  Also, here's a headshot from Jared Leto, Brad Pitt and Kevin Spacey... flip through all of Andrew Brucker's stuff - it's amazing!

Got back together with Jo Elless again this afternoon - aaaafter I met with the guy who directed the first short I acted in, to continue the mad grab for my footage - and kept workin on that jazzy tune. Got the verse idea locked in melodically and rhythmically (it's messin with my head!)

Next stop: home to meet up with Justin Yi and continue our tune from last week. http://www.DeadLetterPerfect.com

Aaron was kind enough to invite me to his vocal lesson - pending his coach, Nancy Badger's, approval...

So here I am, learning about the voice for the first time in my life... And considering making a hefty investment into it!
