JUST THE BEGINNING!!!!!!

Current song: Get Out Alive-Socialburn

So this is the very first blog I have ever done. I am new to this but, it's on my list of things to do this year. The whole idea of this blog is to follow the progress of the things I want to accomplish this year. I have lots of things I have on my list. This isn't about "NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS", it's about doing the things that help me succeed in my passion, my career goal. For those of you who don't know what that is, it is to work in the film industry. So far I have had the opportunity to do a lot already.

I have currently been pursuing the film industry for the past couple years. I have worked on multiple features and TV shows as a PA(production assistant) including Harold and Kumar 3, Sparkle, Have A Little Faith, Tattooed in Detroit and Autoweek Vinsetta Garage, to name a few. I recently started being an AD(assistant director) on a couple short films as well as the comedy Margarine Wars with Doris Roberts and Robert Loggia and a horror film called 13th Sign. I've even started Directing, doing a short film, commercial and a TV show pilot that is being pitched to a major network as of now. So all in all I have accomplished quite a bit. However, I have so much more that I need to do, which is why I made a list.

List of what I want to accomplish this year!

1.Record a CD
- I have dabbled in music for a while, being in 2 bands and playing multiple shows. I fell out of it and picked it back up writing a song that has gotten nothing but positive feedback. So I decided that a CD is in store. If the film biz is slow, might as well have something to pick up the slack. 
2. Collaborate musically with a few other artists.
3. Work on at least 3 feature films as a PA, AD or if I'm lucky Director.
4. Work on at least 2 short films.
5. Work on at least 3 TV shows.
-Currently already completed 1 of 3, being I got the opportunity to work as a PA on the SYFY show Haunted Collector. I started this year off with a bang!
6. Work on at least 2 commercials/music videos.
-Might end up completing these shortly being I was approached to Direct a music video in the near future as well as a commercial. 
7. Work on at least 2 projects as an actor.
-That's right I also act! In the past, acted in 2 shorts and had a minor role in 13th Sign as well! But recently, I got booked to be a lead role in an indie horror feature film in NEW YORK during the spring. 
8. Write 2 shorts.
9. Collaborate on writing 1 feature film script.
10. Get one job out of state.
-Between the SyFy gig and the New York gig I will end up getting, either way...COMPLETED!
11. Have 1 trip to another country.
12. Do more Youtube Videos.
-Just started doing this. 
13. Publish some of my poetry.
-Have a few sites I will post on today.
14. Post any/all photography.
15. Do more photography.
16. Learn a new program.
17. Switch Banks.
18. Save more money.
19. Pay off credit card debt.
-Just made a payment today so I am one step closer on this one!
20. Get in better shape
-This is always on every one's, so why not throw it on mine! P90X here I come! hahaha
21. NETWORK!
-Plan on doing some more today!
22. Hang out with more friends.

Now I am not sure how often I will post on here, being I barely update my facebook status, but I will try to as much as I can. Prolly wont have anyone follow this but it's worth a shot! If anyone reading this has any ways to help me complete some of these goals please please please let me know! Meanwhile, I must be going I have some work to do!!!
