Life in a vacuum....
“ You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him.”—Malcolm S. Forbes At an industry mixer recently, one of the speakers talked about a role play he would do with actors to see how they did in a very important (yet often overlooked) part of their jobs: auditioning. He would purposely throw them curve balls to see what their reaction was to changing a preconceived environment. The purpose wasn't to confuse them and keep them on their toes, the purpose was to get a read on their professionalism and adaptability. When you're handed a script, it doesn't necessarily mean that is the final draft the project will be working with, and changes have to be made to make the story flow better and fit together. He then reinforced something that I learned very early on during my "Friday Night Lights" days...some people don't really care for anyone else except what's in it for them when they interact with you.
