Went to an open call in NYC for a Coen Brothers film.. had to stop at Tiffany’s :)
Lights! Camera! Action!
I see the red light click on and I go into my characters world.
Saying my lines for the first time.
I am no longer Sophia Gilberto.
My mind goes blank, my body goes numb.
But, strangely I know exactly what to do.
Suddenly I’m not acting anymore, I’m my character.
I feel transformed, relaxed and in the moment.
I see, from the corner of my eye, the red light click off.
Then I feel the comforting, and reassuring words
“That’s a wrap!”.
Those words let me know I’ve completed a job well done.
I feel the Sophia coming back into me.
The camera, my best friend and I, are finished for the day.
