Bruce Clifford: Actor in Los Angeles, California.

I wanted to reach out regarding our short movie. we are asking the applicants to provide a short video audition from the movie sides. If this is okay let me know and I'll get you the sides. Thanks. Chris

My biggest pet peeve is when bad guys with guns try to shoot the hero and they always miss unless if it is with a scrape. Meanwhile the hero can do all crazy stunts and hit them with point blank accuracy. Can a bad guy just kill a hero with one shot for once.

Joleene this is a wonderful post. Always a good reminder to just stick with it. How can we throw something away that we are so passionate and loving about?? Entering this industry is like starting at the base of Mt. Everest for everyone. It takes courage to climb, stay on the path, and get up from falling and failing. What gets us through is the strength of the collaboration with people willing to take the climb with us. And a very strong will. I admire your courage to keep going. To keep doing what you love. It's inspiring. So thank you for leading the climb.

Great post Sean. It is never too late to pursue your passion and I am glad you had the courage to embark on this journey that seems so fulfilling to you! It's amazing to see like minded individuals like me who care about what they do and do all that they can to learn and grow. It's all a growing process and we must keep pushing and also have the patience to withstand! Enjoy all the success as it comes!!

Connor, thank you so much for sharing. Seeing someone in the same field put so much effort into what they truly want to be doing with there lives is very, very motivational and inspiring. It is awesome to see how much you have accomplished just by the sheer effort of wanting to act. Keep creating and being yourself. That's all us true artists can be. Keep up the work and thank you for making me want to work harder, stay motivated, and reminding me that the worst they can say is no.

Thank you for the connection!

Hey Cheryl, great advice on dreaming up, starting, doing and completing something. It is all very inspirational. It was a great read for myself ( an actor on the East coast lacking opportunity but full of ideas and ready to create content to create opportunity.) Awesome read, thank you! p.s. Confessions of a personal trainer would be a pretty cool idea ;)

Thank you for the add Lamont. I see you are pretty close. I am an actor always looking for projects. If you happen to be working on one or know anyone I'd be more than happy to audition anytime. Hope you're having a wonderful start to the New Year!

Thank you for such an inspiring post Talece. I enjoyed reading!

Alvin, I want to thank you so much for this generous post. I think everything hits home, and is really powerful. Especially number 10. We spend a lot of time looking for the end result, rather then realizing that being in the thick of it and embracing the moments moment to moment is what it's all about. Thank you for your insight, your time, and your willingness to share.

Hi, Bruce! Thank you for the connection, much appreciated. I hope life is treating you well?

Be open

Thanks Zedrick for an awesome read. It rang true to me as a person and I totally agree with everything you have written. Especially the have fun part. At the end of the day it's not worth it to worry, be unhappy, and negative. This business we are in is certainly an adventure, and what better way to do it than to have fun, be open, communicate, play, work hard, and be persistent. Congratulations on all of your success so far! And thank you so much for the read!

Thanks Anthony, Just a reminder for everyone to never grow up. After all we are all still children we just forget sometimes. Life should still be about playing and having fun, and I can see that you will be doing that for a long time! Keep it up!!!

Leon, you are a true example of someone who puts his dreams first and foremost. I feel the exact same way as an actor. Your story is an inspiration because out of all the hardships you have had, you kept pushing and going, and that is true passion right there. When most people would stop and quit, you kept going and telling your stories, and creating. I hope to see some of your films soon, and thank you for showing that if you really love something you just keep doing it for the passion and nothing else.

Brandi, thank you so much for such an inspirational post. Keep pursuing your passions and staying positive. You reminded a lot of people that they have to change their way of thinking to lead a more fulfilling, positive, and happy life. Thank you!

Thanks for the Connection Ryan!

Hey Carmela, As someone who just got a reel put together by a close film friend you have made some great points. Everything you said is so straightforward and basically everything explained to get a great reel produced. I thank you for an informational and great read. And by the way I am local to Philadelphia, too, I am from Bensalem so It is awesome to see another person from around here with a blog!!!! Thanks again!!

Thank you for the insightful read Jen. I enjoyed the comparison of an acting career and Shark Tank. Applying these methods to my acting career will surely advance my mindset, ability, and relationships 100%. Again thank you for the tips!!

Take a chance.
