And, serves me right, it was a total dud.
They had us line up four at a time and just interviewed us. Some guys they spent several minutes with. One group was in there for 10 minutes, so they must have been damn interesting. I had, maybe, two questions and under a minute. And I'm not being self-conscious or overly self-critical -- it was hilarious how quickly it was over.
Fine. Most of the shoot's going on while I'm on vacation anyway. Maybe I was giving off a vibe. Or maybe I was tired. Or maybe my answers weren't that interesting. Whatever.
The more interesting part is a conversation I had with the guy I always audition with. We were just comparing notes about the unbusyness of things, and he had some good perspective. I've been feeling like it's been a pretty good year. But I got the idea now that maybe it only seems good because a few years ago I was doing much, much less. Back then, he was crazy busy.
So maybe it's only good because I didn't know what the hell I was doing then, and thus wasn't getting called a lot. I can't quite imagine what his idea of busy would be like -- having two or three times the number of auditions I now have. That, I think, would be insane.
