A Documentary

Dear friends,

I want to make a documentary, and I need help from you if you are an actor, or know an actor.

Documentary is about how actors deal with dry phases in their professional lives.

Why I want to make this: I am going through a dry phase right now. I have gone through many before. Everytime I have a weird experience with it. I feel helpless at having a handle at it. In any way possible. It almost paralyses me. So, I want to interview actors (all races and ages) to find out how they deal with it. At the end of it all I hope to get a better understanding of the profession of acting, and a better handle on the demon called the dry spell. I want to learn from fellow actors what I have been unable to figure out on my own. I also hope that this will help many other actors who feel like me. Also, it may be a very good tool for beginning actors to know. Many people joine the industry on a whim, and this may be able to give them a better understanding of the profession they are about to embark upon. At least that is the hope.

So, here is how you can help me.

· I would like to interview you or an actor you know.

· Ideally, I would like to interview the actor in their apartment or a place that they feel is very safe and their own.

· I will need about 2 hours of their time.

· I would like to know a little bit about them before I meet, so I may want to talk to them on the phone or via email.

· I have my own camera, but I may use existing light in their apartment and move it a bit.

· If they don't mind, I might want to interview their partner or children. This is a may be.

· This an independent documentary, with no hope to make any money out of it. if there ever occurs any opportunity to make money from it, I will figure out how we can all partake in that. This is something I need to learn more about, so if you know anything abouot this, please let me know.

· Any advice or suggestions are welcome.

Thanks so much for your help. Please feel free to email me.

Best,
