#Monologue-Tailors
Massively expensive, millions-of-dollars commercial shoots? This ain’t the early 2000’s. Sometimes a company has, like, a $4 budget. This is what I can do on that budget.
The Brief: Break stereotypes of ‘ethnic’ actor friends, LGBTQ actor friends, in other words - remove pigeon from hole.
The Why: I believe actors should represent humanity, not stereotypes.
The What-I-Did: I patch up the pigeon-holes of Hollywood with custom-tailored pieces. For $0. Because how many struggling actors do you know with more than $4.00?
Case Study 1: My talented buddy Vick Krishna tends to get called in for nerd roles a lot (or dramatic 'terrorist roles' when he grows a beard) because of his ethnicity. I think Vick has a really fun handsome, comic, and brooding side and could be a great CW Vampire too.
Case Study 2: My friend Piyali Syam wanted to work the comedy chops and I could totally see her as a great addition to any type of comedy movie based on sorority life. Piyali has a great bubbly energy, is cute, and is hilarious when her 'dark side' comes out.
Case Study 3: Piyali also wanted to work on a seriocomic monologue where she’s conniving, manipulative, and has a twist at the end. I had a blast whipping this up for her, and I love how her energy changes to dark and gives me the shudders every time. Watch out Mrs. Davis.
