On my birthday last November, I took a huge 'leap of faith' and triggered my retirement from the County of Sacramento, so I could pursue my film career full time. And I have been very blessed to be involved with several wonderful film productions. So exciting to now be actively enjoying my career in filmmaking!
I wrote/directed/produced and starred in a film for the Sacramento Film and Music Festival, called "A Fairytale Come True" which you can view on Youtube or at my blog: www.gigglewithgwen.com
Also I have snagged a regular gig behind the camera, as script supervisor, with Back 2 One Productions. Recently we wrapped my first feature film shoot, for "Savior of None", and while working on set I was asked to step in front of the camera, and play a receptionist in a social worker's office. (My face is the first one you see in the film!) We will be premiering the film at the Action on Film festival in Pasadena this August...so I get to walk my first red carpet event this year. Upcoming productions later this year will be taking me to locations in Louisiana and the state of Washington. So exciting!
I have also been an extra in several other local productions including "Happiness" for Watermark Productions. And have a lead role in a short film we are shooting this Saturday called "Why Are We Even Here?" And also a lead role in Ambra Productions' holiday themed feature film "A Magical Country Christmas". Check out their Facebook pages for more info and updates.
This week I am auditioning for a regular ongoing acting gig with a local medical center. They hire local actors, to present symptoms to their medical students, so the students can practice diagnosing. Will be fun to improv, and earn extra $$.
Every day I ask, "How much better can it get...what else is possible?" Hope all your dreams are coming true for you.
