Beveryly Hills 9021.....2???


Hi Everyone!! This is going to be as short and sweet as possible, lol, because we are TIRED! I am trying soo hard to be disciplined in writing this blog every night for all of you and as a keepsake for Keeton one day to look back on. TODAY, up early (DO ALL MY POSTS START THAT WAY???) and went straight to an "Audition" for an animated feature called the Legend of Santa Claus. Keeton had so much fun there because he went into a sound booth and got to talk into a "long skinny weenie mic!" They recorded his voice and sent it by audio file only to the next people in line to hear it. Other voices in this film include Richard Dreyfuss, Zooey Deschanel, and Sarah Silverman to list a few. So here, he is a voice, not a face and that is REALLY ALL THAT MATTERS. No headshot, no resume, nothing. From there we ran home for a private lesson with Patrick Malone for a half hour. He worked with Keeton on the Feature Film script Blindside that is set to star Sandra Bullock. Keeton would be playing her son, if he booked this! Looks like it is going to be a great movie from reading the script!! After he and Patrick worked out the "bugs," we headed to his management company, they wanted to give him any last minute tips and things for the same audition and were pleased with what they saw. From here, we headed to BEVERLY HILLS 90212 for the film audition!! All of this work and he was in there for 4 minutes!!! This character, SJ, is supposed to have a southern accent, which came easy for Keeton, so the casting agent made a comment that he had a great accent for the part! Straight from there we headed to his Thursday night acting class and then ended the night with an enormous piece of MAMMA'S PIZZA!! It was bigger than his chest!!!! What a way to end a great day! We are looking forward to a great night's sleep tonight and ready to see what God has in store for us the next few days.

  3. WOW, How exciting for you son. I'm very proud of your hard work and dedication. You come by that southern accent honest. Be proud of it. You might be another Billy Bob Thorton someday.
