How to be a successful actor in San Antonio? Nobody has the right awnser. Being undeniable Is a good start.
It's not what a casting director tells you, or the classes being promoted by people who haven't worked since the 80's.
Be so good they lose money by not casting you. That's what matters more.
It's not networking, and it's not Inviting everyone to your short film premier. Just be great.
You can check out my IMDb, but It doesn't matter. To name a few of my credits over the past 5 years, I’ve filmed with the Dallas Cowboys, and Helicopters for hero’s, Championship bull rider Josh Frost, and toured the country and documented Comedian Steve Trevino as he prepped for his first Netflix special. I was also one of the camera guys for the special, and directed 11 episodes of his unscripted series. None of It matters.
With 20+ years in the industry and training from Hollywood’s best, I know what works, and I certainly know what doesn’t. Be great. That’s literally all that matters. Everything else Is stupid.
I’ve produced for Oscar nominees, acted along side Emmy winners, and a number of amazing talented creatives. It means nothing. You can too. Taking classes or learning from people with “Credits” isn’t going to make you better. It’s just presented that way. It’s mostly nonsense. Nobody can teach you how to act. I'm not here to do that either. I'm here to help bring out the realness of your performance.
From there, I opened a studio because I wanted to focus on YouTube. Hundreds of castings and productions used my studio from HBO, and the guys from Blue Mountain State. One of my staff teachers at the studio was Robert Romanus, and I got to shoot a few videos with him. He’s awesome. Most of the instructors and my production team all had Emmy’s. I was the first business in Los Angeles that gave actors the opportunity to produce for themselves, and everyone said it was dumb. Well, look at all of us now! Lol. Those that didn’t keep up, lost. Self-Producing content is everything. Whether you’re a personal brand, performer, or a business; you need authentic content.
I directed commercials for Indian Motorcycles with Eric Roberts, Ford, and currently produce content for local businesses in and around San Antonio, Austin, and Houston. I’m stoked to create here in San Antonio, Texas.
The reason I’m able to continue working as a filmmaker is purely hustle. That’s it. I will out hustle anyone. I’ve been lucky enough to play with a camera while being paid for over 20 years. Ready to get moving? Click here.
