Homework

[Vick]

Hi Lin,
If you have answered this I apologize but I've been swamped with homework and haven't been able to visit much this week... (Even non-students need to do homework sometimes right LIn?)
Which brings me to my questions.
part i
Have you gone to any auditions or are you preparing for any parts right now?
Part ii
How do you prepare for your new roles?

BTW do I owe you any info or material or fashion ideas... I think we are set for now but I know the holiday season is coming up so keep me posted.:p

Ms. Vicky! Thanks for the questions! I don't know what is coming up next for sure. I have read a couple of scripts from a producer who hired me for HATE CRIME and DROP DEAD SEXY (both which will be out shortly on DVD.) One is called SKIPPY LIGHTFOOT and is a really cute script...probably low budget,etc. but I really like the script, and there is a really fun part of a biker chick/expert pool player that looked like fun to me. He thought it was a great idea, but I have no idea when and if that is going to go into production. Tomorrow I am auditioning for NIP AND TUCK which I love, for a "guest star" role...which is a one-shot deal...to play a lesbian porn film director...it is a wonderful scene. I prepare by going over the material and "filling it up" the best I can. For television, it has a lot to do with "your look" and if you "fit into the puzzle" they have already created. I have some funny ideas, and I think about what I want to "look like" aka "what to wear!" I think I will wear a tight pair of black slidy pants with a push up bra and black low cut top and spike heels...kind of classic, trashy and sexy. Then the wardrobe doesn't "upstage" me, but makes me feel and move like what I imagine the character to be. There will probably be about 6-10 other lesbo/porn director actresses there all in their "idea" of what the character looks like. and......I hope I get the job!!! Being the "edgy" show it is, I really know I have a shot....I am definitely and "edgy" choice, and make "edgy" choices as an actress. It is so much fun Vicky...and as exciting each time....even though I have been doing it for 35 years! I think that makes me both crazy and lucky! I will let you know how it goes! Do I get to see a "real" picture of you????? I would LOVE to!! xo Lin

and I LOVE all your "fashion ideas!" We are "up to date" but I always welcome whatever!:D

I'm sending you an enormous amount of good luck and wishes for the Nip/Tuck audition!!! I want to see my favourite Lin working with my Aussie Vegemite, Julian McMahon!!

Your wardrobe definitely sounds edgy, and right for the part! Let's hope they do themselves a big, big, big favour and choose you!!

Your enthusiasm for life and your job continues to inspire and make me smile. Your attitude is contagious!! You go girl!! ;)

Hey Lin thanks so much for the response.
I love NipTuck and wil say an extra prayer that they find you to be the perfect actor for the role.
I'm thinking Sandy in the Grease look.... You know Olivia Newton John.
I'll be right back with some pics.

And some day I will post my mug... Just have to dust off some pics and make sure they don't break the scanner:p

I also think this is very sexy and smart for the part of a porn director http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a228/VPhelps/Melissa/0831_05007_mm.jpg
and the Matrix coat look with leather pants and not a ot underneath would be rather ... well lets just say ... it would leave the audience wondering who was directing and who ws acting
