Always An Adventure In TV Land & Sin City

I didn't mention that sometimes people mistake our set for a real coffee shop and try to walk in. This happened yesterday while we were shooting. I honestly thought the couple once they realized their mistake would leave, but they were really interested in it. Before I even knew it they were handing us a flyer of their own show they do here at Vegas and saying that they might be able to advertise on the show.I swear everyone out here has something which just amazes me so much. Especially since the woman who brought the dogs who we planned on having gave us free tickets to her show, a topless revue that takes place in one of the casinos. My biggest complaint when I got here is how hard it is to get a job because everyone knows everyone but now it's what I love most. You have might have to fight your way in, but you CAN get in or you aren't even trying. Not to say that's a bad thing, I kind of like not having any expectations on my shoulders whatsoever but I don't really like going unnoticed..Notice me senpai!

Photo Op Time!

Last Week or so we did the photo shoot for the advertisements, billboards, etc. There isn't too much to tell but a lot to show, so this post will mostly be pictures and rightly so. We got pizza for the cast that everyone was too scared to eat until after their photos were taken, you can probably guess that I wasn't one of those people. I was the girl who had a slice before and after and now can't stop thinking about how badly I need to get into shape. Hollywood fad diets here I come, next up military diet! Everyone was fun and took great pictures, mine were hit and miss because it's rare for others to take my photo and I don't know how to position myself. I should really work on that, but first I'll work on my ass so it becomes naturally more photogenic.

D Coffee Shop Closes at 9PM!



So I have scoured Craigslist for fun and odd jobs and met my share of creeps, cons, and easy money. I came across an opportunity that has made me drop my listing addiction and kept me busy. I saw an ad for a television show being filmed here in Vegas and needed some more people to be part of the team. Of course I jumped on it, but how I actually got it I have no idea. The show is called D Coffee Shop Closes At 9PM. I read the script for the 1st episode and have to say it's right up my alley. It reminds me of the old Twilight Zone episodes (which I'm a HUGE fan of) but where the person who enters it is able to escape better off. My title is sales executive and I'm trying to get people to advertise on the show. So far it's been really fun working alongside Steven Rush and Lakisha Swift and even getting to go to Interop and the proceeding after parties hosted by various businessmen. After which I got to meet "Big Tigger" and get a photo op. I don't want to give a lot away, but will of course post about my best adventures on the job right here. If you live in the Vegas area make sure to tune into MYLVTV when it finally airs in August, and in the meantime you can always go to http://www.lovemindspirit.com/dcoffee.html to learn about the show and some of the stars on it.
