Video taping?

[callygal1.livejournal.com]

Anyone got any advice about video taping in the Walk of Fame? I'm going to be using my tiny Canon camera. But I'm getting something signed for a friend in Australia and wanted to get the signing taped for her to see .. Is that something you ask the handler about or the celeb themselves?? I don't want to do the wrong thing...

I actually worked for awhile as an Office PA in Orlando some 15 years ago, and was really interested in persuing a career in Film/TV production. However, similar to actors, most work in the industry is on a contract basis, and unless you have the good fortune to get attached to a long-running series, you're constantly looking for work.

I've often wondered what actors do in between gigs, particularly the ones who seem to drop out of sight for years at a time, and don't happen to be multi-millionaires. Do they go work in an office? Do they tend bar?

In any case, I think my whole lack of inclination to pay for autographs or pictures is more just a priority of spending for me. Back when I was a teenager, I'd be all about autographs and pictures. But as I've gotten older, I find I value far more highly having a few words with a particular celebrity and learning something about them or their work.

And on the occasions I do get autographs, I prefer that it be on something that isn't just going to sit on a shelf and collect dust.....something practical that I can use or wear, like a hat or something. :)
