Elisa’s Upcoming TV Background Work

Hello!

I know its been a little while but I’ve been busy focusing on theatre and doing select TV background work jobs. But quite a few shows are airing in the next few weeks that I worked on so I wanted to send out a schedule and brief descriptions on how to find me. I also really, really want to start writing more blogs more frequently and not just about my upcoming background work. I feel like everyday in this big city is its own adventure and I should be sharing my crazy stories with all my faithful readers (if there's any left besides my mom)! So stay tuned and become a "follower" of this blog to get updates on when I've posted.

Life on Mars – Episode# 116

I am at the toy launch party being held in a warehouse. I am in a bright lavender colored long-sleeved dress and my hair is down and straight. I took a picture of myself in costume this time and have put it at the end of this entry.

When the scene starts and the main characters enter the bar, I am near them when they spot the bartender and possibly close to the camera when Sam starts punching the bartender. Later in the scene when the big mob guy comes up behind Sam, I am back-to-back with the mob guy before he turns and walks Sam out of the building.

Gossip Girl – Episode# 220

The Gossip Girl kids hold a party at Serena’s apartment and the students gets a little crazy. There is a crowd of eager-to-party kids trying to get in the big glass doors that have been locked by the doorman; I am one of those kids. There are two sets of double doors, behind the first set is a group of about 10 kids and behind the second set of doors is a much larger mob. I am in right behind the first set in the center. I am wearing an off-white, cream colored coat and a bright teal scarf. My hair is down and pulled back off my face.

Cupid – Pilot Episode

The clip I thought I would be able to see myself for this episode is in the previews and I’m one person too far to the left to be seen. I’m hoping that in the show I will be seen. When the character Cupid is standing on the sidewalk waiting to cross the street he is surrounded by a large group of people. I am to the screen left side in a beige jacket and dark teal scarf. The light turns and we all walk towards the camera to cross the street.

Also, in the same episode, Cupid is standing on a street corner with the main girl who is wearing a green dress. They stop at a hot dog vendor and I walk by while they are talking - I have no idea if I will be see at all in those shots, but it’s worth a look!

That’s it for now! Law and Order Criminal Intent premieres mid-April so I will let you know where to look for me in that when we get a little closer to the air date. This episode will be from a day that I filmed back in September but the season had a delayed start. Some exciting news is I’ve recently been called in for several projects with College Humor and even landed a speaking role for one of their online clips! I filmed last Friday so the clip should be up in the next few weeks. I will send a link when I see that it is up on their website.

Let me know if you have any questions! Hope everyone is doing well and looking forward to Spring!
