Keep your political views home..

I was working on E.O.D just recently and here we are in holding for a few hours as usual and here we have someone preaching about which canadate we should choose. Now we all know which one we want to choose and that is our personal opinion, but do not tell us who to vote for. At one point one person yelled from across the room and told this guy to "end it" because this is "not the place for that", I totally agree. Keep that outside, we are here to work and have fun and no one needs that.

FOR REAL. nothing is as annoying when someone gets on their soapbox. It makes me cringe when people argue politics in a public setting like that.

Talking about religion and politics can be an intellectually and fun topic, as long as you don't try to impose your view.
So, I disagree. Although there are some pretty strange people at these sets who take everything too serious.

This is exactly why I like to bring a book and sit in a corner....I do have some "friends" that I have met while "holding", but I have overheard some mighty funky conversations!!

People probably think I am a snob or something, but I have met my share of nut cases on set...

I try not to laugh out loud at the "posers"....They are usually the same that speak very loudly about "what they have done"....It can be pretty comical!!

Speaking of political views, I hear Allan Rosenberg National Director of SAG was voted out this term. He got beat by Amy Brennan from the show Judge Amy. Poor Allan, I really think he had good intentions. But people want there cake now, not later.

Well on the set you have all types. You have the braggers, the quiet ones, the annoyers, the star struck etc. No need to listen to anyone if you don't want to.

Over on ourfilmspace.com there is one guy called Michael Reed who blasts anyone who does extra work as trash. He says that he is only good enough to do principal work(in indies).

People agreeing to work and not showing up.

I was on a project yesterday (Mall Cop) which was a nice experience and worked with nice people. What amazed some people is that there were a few no-shows, what I had said to them is don't be too surprised because this happens more than you think. When that happens that screws a lot of people up first the production because they are expecting their numbers for that day, and people that actually wanted to work that day. So if you can't make it on that project for any reason please call the casting director the day prior so they can fill in your spot. It's the best thing you can do in that situation to still be good with the casting directors and the production.

Are future films in jeporady because of looming strike?

That is a question really no one knows and is asked quite often. If there is a strike and it does last as long as the writers strike does, that will be a problem. But let's hope everything gets resolved by next month so the ongoing traffic of movies continues here in our very cool state. strike,

Portions of the SAG strike my be resolved sooner than later.

What I have heard as of late is that the upcoming strike might not be as long as some people are projecting. Certain aspects have already been cleared. So, with that being said it might no be as long as a process as the previuos writers strike. I think that strike did so much damage that SAG probably does not want to go down that road but we will see.
