What an amazing project to be a part of. I Guest Star as JUDY COOPER in the first episode of “My Generation”, a new TV series on ABC. The show premiers on ABC Thursday, September 23 @ 8/7central. In the first episode, I play opposite Kelli Garner and Keir O’Donnell and will be 8 months pregnant with flippy hair and a chipper disposition. My first experience with a documentary style three-camera shoot, I had so much fun diving into the freedom of more ‘being’ and less ‘calculating’, as is often the case with traditional feature shoot styles. The show’s creator, Noah Hawley, has written a brilliant script and the Producers have put together a dynamic cast and crew. Episode 1 was directed by Michael Katleman, who has an amazing sense of raw, dynamic, truthful action. I have no doubt this show is going to be a super success. I feel fortunate to be a part of it. (Sending intentions that my character will be written back in! Hey, it happens ;)
You can see good clips from the pilot and detailed info here. The official trailer is here.

Me and my 8mo. pregnantness for "My Generation" Episode 1
One Saturday in July, Jay Galvan and I went filming in downtown Austin- 4th street warehouse district to be precise. We had two differing goals that could be achieved in the same project, the perfect symbiosis. Both a test of the low light sensitivity of the 7D DSLR camera as well as an opportunity for me to work out a new character in a simple scene, we shot this with one camera, no lights, hand-held and on the fly. We plan to develop a story-line with this character and plan to shoot a few more tests within the next month. I want to include more people on the street – engaging strangers is always fun (and truthful).
