Today was my first day on the set of the new mobster Science-Fiction upcoming 2012 film starring Bruce Willis (Red), Emily Blunt (The Adjustment Bureau), and Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Inception), "Looper." The Casting Agent cast me as a vagrant and living in New Orleans, I have certainly seen my fair share of homeless people so playing a role like this, even as an extra was very emotional for me because they had it set up just like you see it in the movies, a ton of homeless people all gathered around a fire trying to keep warm, wearing torn up and wrinkled up clothing, etc. To have hair and makeup dress me up to look at how these people actually looked, I looked at myself in the mirror and was amazed at how they transformed me to look so pitiful! The only star that I saw on the set was Gordon-Levitt. I spoke to him briefly an he spoke back. Dealing with celebs on these movie sets are STRICT! We cannot talk to them, ask them for anything, nothing! It is ridiculous to me! Joseph was riving a convertible for all the takes and it started to hail as soon as we were on our 4th take; everyone thought that it was snow! LOL! Today was a fun Day...I love being on the set and learning whatever I can to implement in the next film I may be lucky to get myself into!
