3 steps back?

So, I decided that I am going to blog more. I will make it not just about business, but also some personal stuff too. The title of this blog is titled "3 steps back?", because I did extra work for the first time in 5 years (not including Sada's movie and helping out on Reuben's short). Well, it's quite the experience. First off, set the scene. I signed up for extra work, because I need to officially be let go from a job (if you have questions, email: sean@aboutsean.com). So, I went and signed up at Central Casting. After like 2 solid days and two emails to casting director contacts trying to secure an AFTRA day, I decided to call my good friend Nicole Markel (Super on Sam Who?), she hooked me up with a day. Best part of the day: Working 3 hours and getting rescued by Nicole and released early (woohoo!). Weird part of the day: Extra work is funny. I just feel like cattle. No one really cares about you. You are breathing scenery. Sam Who? people were nice, but it just reminded me of the past shoots. All and all, I felt very humbled today. This will serve as a great reminder to be super thankful when I am on set and to be enormously grateful to the breathing scenery.
On another note, my episode of Creature, now LOST TAPES, aired on Animal Planet last night. Good stuff. I had had some great improv lines that made it in the cut like, "throw that big scary box maze", etc. Check out AnimalPlanet.com to find the next time it airs. WOoohoo.
