For those of you who follow my blog and like to leave comments, such as this one about my most recent two actors who were a no show: “Perhaps its because they realized that your studio is not worth working for…guys like Rad and Chase made the right decision to not work with you!” There’s no reason why an actor would think this for one. I’ve worked with hundreds of actors over the last seven years, 99% of which have loved working with my studio and myself and vice versa. The other 1%, simply didn’t work out, like in any other business. If they chose to be bitter about the decision not to be brought back for work, that’s really up to them, but has never been a personal decision on my part. Even those actors who chose to be that way, I have, nor has anyone who works with and for me held anything against any of them. They just weren’t what I was looking for, for whatever reason. Whether it be their ability to perform, or their looks, etc. There are requirements you know, and not everyone will work out. It’s not personal. As far as Rad, not really sure why he’d try to come in for work for over a month, every weekend, then all the sudden decide not to. Sounds to me like he received some bad info from an actor or producer who had some influence on his decision. I’m confident had he chosen to come in and try it out, he’d still be coming in for work. Chase, well we all know what happened there. Chase did not make the decision not to work for me, I chose not to work with him after his demand of higher pay and insisting he be put on the cover. Matter of fact, he and I had text conversation shortly after that decision, and he was very much interested in working for and with me, as our previous discussion seemed to be more of a misunderstanding. Feel free to come to my blog and post your remarks, I welcome them all, good or bad. But don’t come and make comments such as these and remain anonymous. Stand behind your comments and remarks, otherwise, I just reject your comments and nobody sees them. I of course won’t be approving any comments that are simply rude, no need for those comments. If you have worked for me, and chosen not to for whatever reason, feel free to share that reason with my blog, I have no issues with that. But don’t just leave a comment such as the one above and not say why you feel that way. Those comments are obviously just bitter comments, and rude you know? Why do you think their decision not to work with me as you say, was a good decision? Because I’m such a difficult person? Because I don’t pay enough money? Because the work I do is shitty quality? I mean, you must have a reason why you feel this way. I know there are producers out there that don’t care for me, even though I really don’t know any of them personally, nor them me. I’ve heard the comments from actors that come in saying how some were rejected for work because they chose to work with me. Such a ridiculous thing to do. Actors need work, and none of the producers are ‘in competition’ with each other. They only become and make themselves competition when they start denying work to an actor because they worked with another studio. Don’t punish the actor because they don’t have issues with another producer, they have nothing to do with it. It’s one thing for a producer not to work with another actor because that producer shared his experience with that actor, I’ve had producers ask me for my feedback on an actor before. But it’s another thing to not work the actor simply because the actor chooses to work for me. Why punish him, he’s just trying to make a living like we are in this very bad economy. I have nothing against any fellow producers in this industry, quite frankly I don’t know any of them well enough to have anything against them. Producers should be working together, not against each other. I mean, look at the two actors that just fucked me on this shoot. These two actors had no reason to be a no show, making me think that all along they were coming in, letting me book their flights, then on the day of the flight, not telling me they were not coming. They were in contact with me consistently up until that day and said nothing of the sort. There was no reason for any of these guys to have a grudge towards me to act this way. One of them has never worked in the industry. Producers should ban these actors from working, because there may come a time they feel like fucking one of them out of a flight and waste their time. I would like to start an online community where we as producers can connect and talk about the actors we work with. I realize some of the producers like to have exclusive actors, which is fine. But those who aren’t exclusive by us working together, we can provide the actor with more work. A win win situation for everyone. We can also create a black list of actors who decide to be unprofessional, like the two who chose to waste my time and fuck my shoot this last week. So if you’re a producer, and you’d like to get something like this started, contact me and let’s start working together. Spite what any actor might say to you, I don’t know anything about how you run your business and have nothing against any of you. Cheers, Afton
