Well as the headline says, I was contacted to work on the 2013 MTV Movie Awards. One of my good production friends recommended me for a position. (Contacts in the industry are your lifeline to finding new production gigs and meeting even more contacts.) When I heard about the job my first thought was: “Wow, so spending every weekend at a movie theater watching every movie this year could have definitely paid off?” What position did you get you might ask? Well, simply put, I am known as the ‘Spotter’. I will be on the carpet for the movie awards simply ‘spotting’ talent and letting the camera crew know who they are. Let’s face it, I know every nominee in every category as they’re basically ALL teen movies. Anyone who knows me knows that I definitely have my hands in every teen franchise that is currently on the market therefore this position is perfect for me. The awards also take place at Sony so I could even walk to work and avoid the cluster mess that always ensues on every show day ever.
Now for a little back story. Growing up I ALWAYS watched the MTV Movie Awards. I hardly watched any award shows (yes, shame on me), but I never missed this one. I would gather friends and we’d cringe and cheer as we saw the winners. We’d also look forward to exclusive clips they would play on the show. So to be able to work on the show will seriously be a dream come true.
So, it’s time for me to get my flash cards ready and for my friend to start quizzing me on all the celebrities who will be present at the show. After all, recognizing celebs is obviously serious business. Also time to also get my face ready for when I see Emma Watson waltzing down the carpet as she is being honored at the event this year. Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson within a couple of months? I don’t know that my heart can take it.
Til the next post everyone. Keep dreaming and succeeding.
