Thoughs and Prayers are needed

Last edited Mon Oct 20, 2014, 06:35 PM - Edit history (1)

Democratic underground, I have a meeting with a major executive producer who has been in he business for a long time. I've done my homework verified that the guy is real. My manager is super excited about this. We don't know which of my four movies and my five television projects he's interested in. This could be my big break. Super excited and nervous. If he takes me on, I'll have to go to New York but I can deal with that.

Please pray for me. Very nervous about this meeting.

Update: I just heard back from the producer's people. They are really interested in two of my TV projects. "First Gentleman" a political drama centering in on the husband of the first African American President of the United States and "Liberty Street Sisters" think of it as Desperate Housewives meets Scandal.

The call is happening on Wednesday.

They wouldn't be calling you in if you didn't have something they want. Do you have an agent? If you know an agent you'd like to work with (to represent you) you could call and buff your work a little to see if they offer to jump in and help you negotiate. Just a thought. Good luck!
