My SXSW Film & TV viewing plan. As I only have a wristband and am likely to be left out of screenings behind badge-holders, there is a lot of overlap and duplication. Hopefully they’ll have enough closed-caption devices when I am lucky enough to get in…

Hey, Actors of Mastodon, this is a new group on Mastodon! Just tag and follow the group user, @actorsofmastodon

This is a broad group for members who are actors, including stage, voice, film, & TV actors, both pro & amateur.

This group has no moderator, so the group is self-policing. Report bad actors—ahem—as you would with any other post (e.g. to your own server’s admin)..

We can create our own rules, but I suggest starting with the server rules here: https://mastodon.actors.social/about.

Server support for this group is at https://a.gup.pe

You don’t have to follow the group in your own stream. You can check in from time to time here: https://a.gup.pe/u/actorsofmastodon

Fresh Air with Terry Gross remembers actor David McCallum (1933–2023).

“McCallum, who died Sept. 25, played an off-beat medical examiner on NCIS, but got his start nearly 60 years earlier, playing a Russian agent on the The Man from U.N.C.L.E. Originally broadcast in '92.”

From one of the staged readings at the Lake Travis Film Festival on Sunday. I'm playing a cop,* reading from another character’s driver license.

*Not really looking like a cop.

From Fresh Air With Terry Gross: “We remember Pee-wee Herman actor Paul Reubens, who died July 30, by listening back to a 2004 interview with him, and to archival interviews with Laurence Fishburne and S. Epatha Merkerson, who appeared on Pee-wee's Playhouse.”

A film in which I have a bit part, Labor+Justice, is headed to Hollywood at the HollyShorts Film Festival! (That’s me in the foreground.)

It’s a wonderful short with dark, biting humor and a dark, sad, but all-to-timely story. I’m very proud to have been a part of it.

The first judge is slightly leaning, and each judge after is leaning a bit more. A stylized wheat crown encloses this text: "HollyShorts Film Festival, Official Selection, 2023”

Despite rumors to the contrary, a SAG-AFTRA strike is still looming.

From the SAG-AFTRA website: “We will not be manipulated by this cynical ploy to engineer an extension when the companies have had more than enough time to make a fair deal.”

Gizmodo article: “SAG-AFTRA Agrees to Federal Mediation, But Not to an Extension”

From DEADLINE: “As talks between SAG-AFTRA and the AMPTP continue this week, actors are getting a head start on picket planning should negotiations end in a stalemate at midnight on July 12 and lead to a double strike alongside the Writers Guild.”

SAG-AFTRA news: “SAG-AFTRA National Board Unanimously Agrees To Send [Strike] Authorization Vote To Members”

“…An affirmative vote does not mean a strike would necessarily happen, but it would allow the National Board to call one if deemed necessary during the negotiations process.”
