  1. Hi there,

    here is a site i'd like to advise everybody.

    www.grooveshark.com


    You can find almost every song that you've ever heard on that site. it is 100% legal and available from germany too, if you use a foreign proxy server. They also have a lot of JJFP remixes there.

  2. making fun of yourself is kinda like overplaying a situation. comedy in that way is not overplaying a situation, especially not yourself, that is something that you wont find anywhere in theatre or television or cinema. its kinda like the way Will was acting on the first episodes of the fresh prince. playing yourself with your own attitude is not acting or maybe bad acting. as an acting student i can tell you that it gives me more the feeling of chris langer, who is showing me that he has fun making jokes and stuff.
    comedy doesnt work that way. comedy is created out of a situation and not on purpose by having the intention to make something which seems to be funny. comedy is probably the hardest and most difficult genre in acting. the question is: how can i do comedy but be 100% serious and truthful.
    there are ways of caricature and illustrative acting, but these are not necessarily "comedy" bound.

    there is nothing bad about it at all in my opinion, like sanford meisner once said "You know it's all right to be wrong, but it's not all right not to try."
    so just keep going and taking lessons. i think that you are talented, at least i can tell you that i saw that you got the essence of the moment at times.

  3. i do like the idea and i think your acting skills are getting better. the concept of making an interview is a good way to present yourself. but it did lack of seriousity. i couldnt really figure out what you were aiming for, it was not concrete. it did have the feel that you were making fun of yourself, but on the other side you were talking about your ambitions to become an actor. but kinda like playing it down. as chris langer i dont buy it, the dude that is called chris langer in the video is a role hiding his true self behind the shell of comedy.
    i think that the video has consistency and it is not filled up with unnecessary filler material. i'd love to see you interact with other persons and play some serious roles. dont forget, acting is about truthfullness and authenticity.

  4. Hi everybody,

    i just finished my first serious attempt to write some lyrics and record it. this was done in pretty basic way. i'll be in the studio next week to make a more professional and cleaner version.

    I wanted to share it with you guys and need some honest opinions even if its in german.
