Crystal Ball the movie! we filmed a scene yesterday! i am an ACTRESS (in the role of FRANCES HOWARD) in this movie now shooting! excited to see the movie form with a huge cast that i am happy to be part of! the acting and filming process i find fascinating and enjoyable! doing multiple takes, saying lines different ways over and over and "hitting the mark" in the scene- lighting and camera angles/lenses- all interesting to witness and be part of= movies are an incredible art form. hearing "action and cut" makes me happy! listening to direction and fleshing out the scene. i love the process. feels natural. movies are so amazing containing visual/audio/performance/emotions etc. every kind of art is mixed into movies. all encompassing eNeRgY. magical. my favorite class in high school was "film as art" long story but i have always loved movies and music and visual and performing arts...to be acting in a full length movie is a thrill for me! and i'd like to be in more projects on stage and screen....along with writing more poetry, turning them into songs, recording and sharing them online and live on stage. here is more about the movie i am part of with such a variety in the cast! check out the interesting head shots and bios of the cast and crew!

Another thing about the acting process is that I had three lines that I said today into the camera and I'm really excited that I need to go back and dub in my lines later. I just love nerdy technical things like that....it thrills me. I've always wanted to do something like dub my own lines into a film. Like how cool is that like I find that thrilling and exciting

Filming the scene for the movie today was so fun for me. We did several takes and it's just a thrill to hear action and then cut and then to say my lines over and over and over and they had me say the line like I imitated what the other person said in terms of how to say the line and they said I took direction really well and I like the repetitiveness and the focus of acting in front of a camera and having lighting and having the camera angle and the lighting and somebody directing me and somebody filming me just the whole process and I have a tremendous amount of patience for it. Like I could stay there all day and work on a scene if they wanted me to. Like every time I've acted like that. I've only done a little bit of film acting but I really love it. I like stage acting as well. It's very different on stage versus on screen. Mostly I film myself solo but working with other people and cameras and microphones. I love it in a script. I absolutely love it. So maybe I should head more in this direction of putting a reel together and auditioning see if I can get some parts in films or some more theatre...

 

ideas from shannon kringen

 

My goal now is to share my authentic ideas and not need external validation from other people but not hide my ideas because they're weird or because I'm afraid other people are going to tell me I'm wrong. I need to just be strong and share my ideas, get them out into the world, and not worry if other people think I'm wrong or right or whatever. We're all like unique individuals whether we think we are or not. We literally are whether we conform and copy other people or we maintain our individuality. We are still individuals choosing to copy and conform versus individuals choosing to explore their unique -ness Some of my spiritual ideas - I believe in the creative consciousness that we're all creating this together and that's to me what God is. God is nature and nature is God and I like the idea of God believing in you right along with you. Believing in it cuz I don't think it's a male or a female. I think it's just energy. Creative energy that's probably male and female. Like a seahorse that can mate with itself hahaha. . I think it's a circular flow and there's synchronicity and we're all connected and reality changes based on our attitude and what we choose to focus on and believe the quantum physicists talk about this about how the expectations that humans have affect the result of the experiments with molecules, etc. It's kind of fascinating. And I think that technology can be positive or negative. But I think that when we do Frankenstein experiments with nature and we genetically modify everything thinking we're smarter than nature. I think that's not a good idea... And to worship chemicals and technology is not a good idea and it's not really a wise form of evolution. But I guess humans love to experiment. So personally, I want to stay as close to nature as possible. So when I say I'm a free-range human being, that's partly what I mean... And to me, that's my spirituality because I'm not a religious person. I don't believe in any religious dogma but I also don't believe in any scientific dogma that's based on corporations that make money off of ideas and chemicals and experiments and products and call that truth when really. It's just marketing products and experimenting with chemicals to see what happens and it's not an exact science so I don't worship that. If I worship anything, it's the freedom and the biodiversity in nature and how humans are part of nature and we are not superior to nature. We are part of nature, but I respect that other people see this in a different way, but I maintain my individuality on this and I resonate with people who have a similar wavelength to me. But then again, the world needs all kinds of different ideas. That's the way the ecosystem works total variety. I love all the little microorganisms and fermented foods and thinking about the random chaos in nature and yet there's order and chaos both in nature and it sort of balances in some kind of yin and yang kind of way. It's kind of fascinating and there's the microcosm and the macrocosm and the mirror neurons and all of these cool ideas that fascinate me. And when I stare off into space and look at plants and animals and trees in nature, I think of all these different thoughts and then words pop into my head that I write down when I write my poetry etc. Metaphors and double entendres etc. That's the Kring flow. I would say catch the wind song spiral drive crack, the code left and right node. Those are the kind of thoughts I think. I think I'm going to say something like this the next time. I do a 5-minute open mic, poetry reading at The poetry bridge coming up on a Wednesday night. I think it's this coming up Wednesday. When I'm going to read my 5 minutes of poetry that I wrote, I might just do improv philosophy...
