Hello, fellow artists! Let’s jump right into another exciting edition of my weekly blog. As you all know, I have two goals that I am focusing on this year. And each week, I am alternating between the two goals to provide updates that are hopefully inspiring and engaging. This week, we are back to my acting goal for 2024: Book supporting roles in feature films produced and distributed by independent or mid-sized studios.
I am a long-time student at the Richard Lawson Studios, and I am constantly inspired from one class to the next. This past Thursday’s class was no exception. Towards the end of class, Richard talked about the power of postulates, belief, seeing the vision, going after it, putting in the work, vibrating on the level of the things you want, etc. It was incredible. At one point, he shared an inspiring Instagram video where a woman named Liel Eden talked about the origin of the word, “Abracadabra”. I’ve provided a link to the video below. The origin of this word (“I will create as I speak.”) was a great reminder because I sometimes get so caught up in my daily administration that I sometimes forget what I’m doing all of this for. I have to remember that my administration is connected to a specific goal. And that specific goal is connected to a specific postulate that I see and believe in. Each day, I will speak my goals and postulates out loud to keep creating the magic. “I will create as I speak.” Create and speak. Speak and create. That combination will be magical.

Here is some of the administration I’ve executed in the last two weeks for my acting goal: I submitted myself for a feature film. I researched a few Latinx directors upon the recommendation of a colleague. I picked one of those Latinx directors from the list, watched a couple of their films, and reached out to them. I watched a SAG-AFTRA Foundation panel because a few of the casting directors that I reached out to this past February were on it. I did relationship map outflow. I researched U.S. and Latinx indie directors and producers whose films screened at the 2023 Sundance, SXSW, Cannes, Tribeca, Toronto, and Telluride film festivals. Keep reading below 🙂
See you all next week!
