"Don't Despair" has been released today!


Back in January - I had the pleasure of reuniting with Michael Hall ("Kids Get Dead 2") on an indie short "Don't Despair" (dir. Alfred Giancarli)

Casting began back in late December - and I had initially read for the role Erin Etheridge would go on to play.  I initially had my eye on this role - but was offered the supporting role of "Masterpiece".

I dropped a lot of weight for the role - and did the infamous Master Cleanse to help me get into the world of this character.  I also had the best time preparing for it! Usually, an actor spends a lot of time preparing to look their very best for a part. In my case, I spent a lot of nights at home in my sweatpants - and I didn't wash my hair for about 4 days leading up to the shoot! (gross!!! :D)

You can now see the film (also has the option of Spanish subtitles) here
 I was so thrilled to have had the opportunity to explore a much darker role.  Also - reuniting with the some of the KGD2 crew was such a blast!
So feel free to share the film if you liked it!

Next up - a shoot with The Phoblographer - and stay tuned for photos from my latest shoot with Natalie G Sundling!

Brooklyn Bridal Shoot - by Jason Lanier

A few weeks back, I collaborated with "LA's Best Photographer" (according to Fox News)  Jason Lanier for a Bridal Shoot. We racked our brains for a kick-ass location, and I could only suggest one place...Magicland! He had a rental car, and all of his equipment, so it made perfect sense for him to drive to Williamsburg and park his car without any dramas. Needless to say, Jason fell in love with location.  It is an incredibly versatile space - and the natural light that comes through in the afternoon is astounding. Jason also had a spare dress with him - and my Brazilian room mate, Patricia came home just in time to be a bride, too!  We threw her in the deep end, but she rose to the challenge, and had a ball.  (You can read a bit about that in an earlier post of mine  http://becfordyce.blogspot.com/2010/05/magicland.html  and see a shot of her with Jason in the loft) The next stop was the famous Magicland rooftop.  We waited for the sun to go down a bit to get the per

Black Canary Shoot with HJ Film World in Bushwick, Brooklyn

Early in June, I had the absolute pleasure of collaborating with Hasan Ali in Bushwick on his Superhero series. He cast me as Black Canary from Justice League - and the results are epic to say the least!
