Actors are Such Interesting Peoples

I spent every night last week in Manhattan  meeting with a different actor. Tuesday night I found another great actor and was very excited. He even hung in there until the next afternoon when he emailed me to say that he was cast in a feature and couldn't do my project anymore. I understand completely and I wish him lots of luck, it's just frustrating to constantly have people coming in and out of my project and wasting my time sitting in coffee shops in Manhattan meeting with total strangers who only let me down.  But, now I have my cast. Saturday was rehearsals at yet another coffeeshop in the city and everything seems ready to go. Now I just need a group of extras to fill my classroom scene. Shooting begins next Sunday in the streets of Brooklyn.
