Amazing Arizona Con 2012

2012-01-11T22:50:00.000-08:00

ANOTHER convention has come and gone. This time, I was at the Amazing Arizona Con in Mesa, Arizona and I got to go dressed as Big Dog Ink's character: Dorothy Gale.

I was thrilled to be able to portray Dorothy from Legend of Oz: The Wicked West http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Legend-of-Oz-The-Wicked-West/137837859619265 (Thank you so much to Grant Brummett for the incredible photos!)

I spent the weekend bouncing from table to table, visiting with old and making new friends and even have some new interviews to show you all!!! FINALLY!!!

The interviews have been transferred so now it's just up to editing. I also have a written interview, along with a review coming up from one of the artists/creators that was at the con. I won't spoil the surprise yet. I'll let you know who it is when I have it posted.

I have some big news about an Aspen character that I have been DYING to cosplay. A few more weeks may be all you need to wait for that costume. I won't even be waiting for a con to show her off.

Who is your favorite female Aspen character??????

At the con I got to speak with Raven Gregory about a new series that he is going to be releasing. That will be covered in the intervew that I post too. I had a really good time at the convention and it was great to see how well received Legend of Oz was! We sold EVERY SINGLE issue! Tom Hutchison, the creator of the story, was at the table all weekend, along with the very talented colorist, Kate Finnegan. We held raffles giving away banners, comics, prints and more every day at 4 and had a fantastic location. I got to hang out by Mike DeBalfo -- he draws like this:

his wife (who also happens to be the drawing I chose ^_^),

Tony Parker, who draws like THIS :

who just released Dead Mans Run with Greg Pak and Aspen Comics. Aspen, with Joe Benitez, J.T. Krul, Frank Mastromauro, Peter Steigerwald......

Nei, who is sexy AND tremendously talented-- this is hers:

and more people, like Pop Culture Paradise who brought along Chandler Riggs (Carl, from The Walking Dead)

I was very lucky to be a part of this years convention. Again ^_^ Jimmy put on a great show!

I seem to be getting very busy again (fucks yess) so maybe I will be making some more convention appearances before Phoenix. I know I'll have a lot more comic/pop culture type news in the mean time. I came back for the first show of the year with Men with No Lives http://www.livestream.com/cazadorproductions last Saturday and will be reporting every Saturday live, in studio. You can watch, tweet with us and call in to bullshit.

I know how becoming those headphones are. Bom-chicka-woww wow.

Peace!

New Year, New projects!

2012-01-02T20:12:00.000-08:00

Happy New year!

I know I'm a little late on that one but hey, it's still the first week. This year I am going to bust my ass work wise. Already, on this 2nd day of the year, I have 2 photo shoots scheduled for Thursday, a NEW cosplay costume debuting on the 6th, 3 radio interviews scheduled..... and more.

I am also back on Cazador Radio http://www.menwithnolives.com/ with Michael Flores (director of Western X), Dan Narciso, Dustin Hale and Kevin Tye. Every Saturday from 8pm-10 you can listen in, chat while we are live and watch our shenanigans on livestream. This is an adult show, so you should keep that in mind if you're streaming from your phone at work....dumbass.

I did a pin up shoot with Pierre Price right before Christmas. I have posted some on my Facebook but I am going to have a new print from this shoot available at conventions that I am not going to post online. YAY! **these photos are untouched. Any negative comments are therefore invalid.****

I am writing for Comicbooked.com and will be doing some more work this year with Comic Book Divas. I'll be posting links everywhere.

This week I will be at the Amazing Arizona Comic con at the Mesa convention center.http://amazingarizonacomiccon.com/ The convention runs from the 6th-8th. Guests include Robert Kirkman, Aspen Comics (with Tony Parker!), Zenescope, Big Dog Inc, Shelby Robertson (American Discord), Jesse James Comics and many many more. I will be debuting a NEW cosplay outfit for one of the above companies. Teaser pics will be following this week. ^_^

Also, there will be many exclusives, like this print the talented Shelby Robertson drew up. This print is limited to 50 and features myself, Cosplay sensation Jessica Nigri, and Chandler Riggs from the AMC hit , The Walking Dead.

See the big zombie on the top left...the one drooling on everything? That's me. Hahaha, Rawrrrrrrgggggggg!!!

I also really want to get stuff up on my Deviant Art. I've had my account for 2 years and just now have started using it. Artists... add me and give me your pages! You can see my stuff here http://vpaege.deviantart.com/

I've got a LOT of work to get done so I'll leave you with that. Have a wonderful New Year! I'll be around. <3

Tucson, comics and me

2011-11-16T21:07:00.000-08:00

Did you go to the Tucson Comic con? http://tucsoncomic-con.com/ I attended the 4th annual convention the 1st week of November which was held at the Bookmans event center in Tucson, Arizona. The event expanded to a larger location and added an entire extra day to the schedule. There were panels held, costumes worn, pilliow fighting with the Tucson Roller Derby gals and sketches. On the first day I had a booth by the Arizona Underground Film Festival and got to meet a lot of new people and was so happy to have my friends visit ^_^
I got to walk around on day 2 and I took some pics for myself:

Mike DeBalfo with the beautiful Mary DeBalfo.

On Sunday, some of the artists changed tables so I took over writer Raven Gregory's table. I sat beside Shelby Robertson and his 2 beautiful table ladies. Raven visited often-- and of course, the men had to take my glasses.

I took Shelby's

I had more opportunities presented to me at this convention as well. I will be cosplaying some amazing characters very soon and have a few new photo shoots lined up this month. This Friday I am finally going to be working on another pin up shoot!

So many new photo shoots and events are coming up! November 21st Western X is releasing another NEW episode!!! Episode 7 will premier on Koldcast.tv. Also! Thanks to everyone who signed up for the Western X news letter at this months convention!

I'll be back with new pictures from my newest photo shoot within the next 2 weeks!

wowee

2011-10-14T14:54:00.000-07:00

Hey everyone-- it's time for more updates!
I just finished filming an e-learning, web walk through for the nursing students of Apollo University. If anyone is going to that college, you'll probably be seeing my face as I help you navigate through the website. It's pretty cool to be able to do something like that.
I film with Bobby Blood http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bobby_Blood_(Musician/filmmaker) this Saturday for a chapter in his movie, Terror 66. This movie will consist of 3 short horror stories. When I can release more info and pics-- I will!
Also, A Man Called Nereus (http://www.facebook.com/amancallednereus) is days away from releasing a trailer and getting the website finalized. I will make a big announcement when that happens. Here is the 1st poster, if you haven't seen it yet:

Guys! I can NOT wait for you all to see this! I am SO proud of this film. I've been waiting for this all since shooting completed in March. Here is a shot of my character, I play Mayan Princess, Huichanna

Next week I will also be traveling to LA for an audition. I won't say more for fear of jinxing myself. I'll let you know how things go.
I started on a new photo project with Aaron Flores of Skewed Iris Photographyhttp://www.facebook.com/pages/Skewed-Iris-Photography/80935783756 - I have to tell you all that this is one of my favorite images. The best in while. Aaron is extremely talented. Richard Anderson http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3061531/ plays the dead man while Stephanie Nault http://stephanienault.com/ did the makeup.

Everyone also has to go get the new Pucifer https://store.puscifer.com/frameset.html cd, mp3, itunes download etc. The cd fucking rocks my face off!! I am loving it. It's also all about Arizona (Maynard lives in Jerome). Very great music. Very talented man.

I'll have more updates and pictures for you all soon! Also- -keep your browsers on www.Comicbooked.com for up to the hour New York Comic con coverage!

Busy month!!

2011-08-25T14:07:00.000-07:00

Hey my sexy vixens and studly men---- I'm back with some more updates. Oh yes. Update time!!!
As you may already know (or will shortly learn), I was filming in a full length motion picture, Camp 139. We started filming early this year and at the end of July, we wrapped on production! I play a high schooler in love, Haley. Here is a synopsis of the film:
"Set in Fossil Creek, Arizona, the film depicts a drug fueled camping trip gone to hell, when a militant killing machine begins to stalk four teens through the wilderness, luring them toward an abandoned Army hospital. In this high-school political horror, Stacy (Sarah Wilson) and Brandon (Joshua Johnson) are pulled away from a weekend of romance when their classmates Haley (Victoria Paege) and Mike (Frank Prell) become captives of The Patient, a perverse medical experiment stemming from the hospital's post World War II research. With the help of Mike's slacker brother John (Shane Dean, DEADFALL TRAIL, DEATH FACTORY BLOODLETTING) they locate the hospital, making a last-ditch effort to save their friends - or die trying."
You can keep watch as the editing progresses and more stills are released http://www.wix.com/nuclearfilms/camp139
This Saturday, August 27th, I will be in Glendale at Jesse James Comics celebrating his 2 year anniversary. Zenescope artists will be in attendance as well as shop owner Jesse James. Come visit, hang out, party and get some comics and original art while you're at it. http://www.jessejamescomics.com/site/
Next up on September 3rd and 4th I start filming in a horror film by Bobby Blood http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bobby_Blood, called Terror 66. I'm not going to give too much away on this just yet. As the film progresses I will keep you all updated.
The following weekend-- September 10th, I will be in Tempe, AZ at an event to raise money for the Phoenix Childrens Hospital at Pop Culture Paradise http://www.facebook.com/PopCultureParadise?ref=ts&sk=wall.
Nei Ruffino, Mike Debalfo, Jessica Nigri and many more will be there to help raise money only $10.00 gets you a sketch, photo op or signed print. Come on down and party with us comic geeks.

Next up (or during the next 3 weeks) are some photo shoots. First- I am going to be doing promo cards for the owner of Kill! . We will be premiering these at conventions and in his shop. More details and links to come on that as well.
Also, I am looking to do a really special photo shoot to represent my favorite female character. I have received permission directly from the creator and artist of the character and have sent all of the images to my talented seamstress, Amanda Tucker http://modifiedminds.com/ but now all I need is a little help from all of you.
I want to be able to bring you an incredible representation of this character but the materials are a little pricey. I have set up a donate button from paypal if you would like to help more cosplay characters come to life. For every $25 donated, I will send you 2 signed prints- 1 from the next shoot I do and the other from a shoot of your choice. Thank you in advance for any and everything. YAY! for helping friends!

On another note---- In November I will be starting back up with Cazador Productions. This means, oh yes, A Six Gun for Lobo!

(yup, that's me on the banner to the left of Lobo. I'm in real life to the right...OmgLobosandwich!! I feel like I created a portal into another dimension with that one.)
Annnnnnyways---No shooting dates are set yet but this is when things will get rolling. I play Alexis 'Lady' Lynch, a character that will briefly be introduced in the last episodes of season one of Western X. This short series will follow Alexis and an opium addicted smuggler, Lobo (Dan Narciso) on an action filled journey that introduces us to a whole new world of Western X. This is a more gritty version with drugs, sex, harsh language, murder....you get the point. Keep updated here: http://asixgunforlobo.com/
Last but in NO WAY, SHAPE OR FORM, LEAST------- A Man Called Nereus is in the final stages of post production. The trailer should be out within the next few weeks and more and more updates are being added to the FB page weekly. The website will soon be fully functional and an IMDB will also be out soon.
Phew!!! So much news -- but I HAD to share it all with you. I'm going to be posting a little more often now. Pictures from shoots, updates on my projects and places you can come and see me will be prevalent in the future. Thanks for hangin in there so long with me between posts. You are all supah fly. Yeah, I just said that. : p

Charity?! Sign me up!

2011-08-07T15:23:00.000-07:00

Almost a year ago I created and posted about a situation that hit very close to home and how wonderful and unexpected Susan G. Komen was to help out my family. I became an immediate supporter of the organization as they came to help out a young girl (my cousin) in a time of worry and then took care of EVERYTHING.
I don't usually give to charity. I make a large detour when I hear the chiming Santa's at Christmas, I ignore transients or ask THEM for money in return (That'll come back to bite me in the ass one of these days, I'm sure haha).... and I don't donate to research or Ronald McDonald. I don't even like helping out when kids are going door to door fundraising (for the simple fact that the companies are using the poor little kids to do their selling and offering them nothing in return). However, when I see an organization, so selflessly helping others, especially children, I change my stubborn, hard headed views. That brings me to the Phoenix Children's Hospital.
Phoenix children's Hospital http://www.phoenixchildrens.com/?gclid=CIuR3byKvqoCFQgLbAodqlzUDA. I don't share everything on my blog posts but today I'm going to tell you a little story. I have 3 beautiful sisters. I am the oldest (by far), therefore, was fortunate enough to be there through many stages of their growing up.

The oldest of the 3, at age 14, was having some issues. She would get headaches all the time, wouldn't feel well, and the doctors didn't know what was wrong. Eventually, they found out that she had excess fluid in her skull, surrounding the brain and causing too much pressure. My little sister had to go in for brain surgery.
Now, the way that we are in my family is to deal with things as they happen and not worry about things that can't be changed. That being said, details were kept minimal as she was so young and fragile,.... there is no reason for any added stress. My sister went in for her surgery and our family went to show love and support.
That brings us to September of 2003 when the surgery took place. Immediately, as we entered the hallway of the hospital, there was a giant, wall sized tower with ramps and shoots and slides, encapsulated inside of 2 Plexiglas/see through plastic, type walls. It had a ball that would drop from the top and roll through the maze and shoots and slides until it got to the bottom and started all over again. Like a gigantic Mouse Trap!!! I LOVED that game!

Needless to say, something so simple was able to capture my attention and bring a smile to my face.... imagine how it must help all the worried children that come through that door on a daily basis. The inside of the building is brightly colored and there was no heavy, ominous, suffocating air. It did not feel like any of the hospitals that I'd ever had to visit. My sister, was also extremely calm and upbeat about the whole experience. There was happy, brightly colored art everywhere and signs showing who donated the piece or donated money to be able to get such docorations. Little pieces of help go such a long way in this case.

The surgery was completed in a short amount of time, time in which our family took advantage of the large soft benches in the waiting room, rather than worrying in uncomfortable, hard chairs in an equally uncomfortable tile room. A stint, (reservoir), was placed under the skin on the top of her head to slow the eventual build up of more fluid. She came home a groggy and sore, yet happy little ladybug. It was a tremendously positive experience. Everyone was very nice and at no time did I hear any uncomfortable sobs or shrieks from sick children.
That being said, I am a HUGE fan of children's hospitals now. I believe that Phoenix MUST go above and beyond and if not, then I praise ALL of the other children's hospitals that I have yet to visit.
Now, for the point of that long story----
On September 10th, I, along with many great artists, including Zenescopes Mike DeBalfo, Raven Gregory, Tony Parker and ladies in Cosplay, will be joining together at Pop Culture Paradise in Tempe, AZ to raise money for the Phoenix Childrens Hospital. Please join me and the company that is organizing this charity event from 1pm-5pm and get original art and photo ops with myself and the other ladies.http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=196336227094749&notif_t=event_photo_change

With our help, we can keep children happy, as they should be, and more comfortable when life throws scary, adult situations their way. Thank you for taking the time to read my story. My sister has since had 1 follow up surgery, in 2007, in which they were able to find the cause of the build up, because of documentation they were able to compare to when she went to Phoenix Childrens. Unfortunately it isn't something that we can prevent at this time but she remains the beautiful, happy, goofy girl she's always been. I love her, and all of my siblings to a degree that only siblings can understand. <3

Phoenix Comicon 2011 Part Dos

2011-06-04T18:53:00.000-07:00

Alright!! Now that computer decided to stay connected to the internet.....I can finish my con recap! YAY!
I believe we are now on SUNDAY!
Sunday is usually my FAVORITE day of conventions. Everyone is tired from the hectic week so things are so much calmer and laid back. I have been cast in a new feature film, Camp 139 http://www.facebook.com/pages/Camp-139/119558271446750 (FB just started!), so I only had a limited time at the con because we had a table read at 3. Although I started packing at 2, I had tons of visitors and met some great people.

Here was my table at con--

See the red flier I am pointing out? That is for the spin off series "A Six Gun For Lobo" that I will be filming with Cazador Productions at the end of this year. http://asixgunforlobo.com It is a spin off of Western X.
Before I ran out of the convention, I realized that I hadn't had any time to visit any friends, get any sketches or browse any art so I grabbed my name banner and5 ran to everyone I could catch at their tables to get a signature and picture. I got a lot in the 15 minutes I had.... Here is what I managed:

So that was my con experience. I'm still a bit new to the world of blogging so for the sideways pictures, just lay your head on the table or turn your screen. It won't hurt. Don't you worry.

What con's are you most looking forward to?

Phoenix Comicon 2011 part 1

2011-05-30T20:44:00.000-07:00

Another year and the Phoenix Comicon has continued to grow!! So much stuff went on that I'm going to break this into 2 posts. Thursday through Saturday.......here we GO!
When I first went to the Phoenix Comicon 4 years ago it was held at the Mesa Convention center. It was relatively quiet, there were little to no lines and I was able to sit and chat with artists for as long as I wanted.
Last year, I had the tremendous opportunity to be the spokesperson. We pulled in almost 15 THOUSAND attendees, changed locations and the guest list was filled with more special guests than ever before, including an appearance by Mister Stan Lee.

This year, I was invited to be a guest of the convention (what an HONOR!) so I had a table on my own and the web series I am in, Western X ( http://www.westernxtheshow.com ) had a booth. Our booth was occupied by Vernon Wells http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0920460/ who stars in AND produces the show. Besides him, many of the shows cast frequented, including Dustin Hale, Kaily Alisano, Michael and Aaron Flores, Jason James and more. (The picture above was taken at our booth.)
Thursday kicked the convention off and as I was unloading my heavy blue tub that housed a majority of my prints, I ran into convention favorite Wil Wheaton, aka Wesley Crusher. As he was crossing the isle I was attempting to walk through he recognized me (we have a mutual friend and met at last years con), and helped me all the way to my table, as he gave me advice on how to avoid such heavy lifting in the future. Haha....it was a good start to the week. I spent the rest of the night setting up and running between my table and the Western X booth. I was so busy that I didn't even get a chance to see any other guests or stop to see any art!
On Friday, I had 2 friends to help out with my table which was definitely needed as I was able to talk to all of the wonderful people I met. I had a very short amount of time to run around an isle or 2 so I made sure to visit Ebas, Nei Ruffino and the rest of the Zenescope crew, Shannon Denton and his lovely wife (they are favorites of mine ^_^) and some of the artists from Evil Robo http://www.facebook.com/EvilRoboProductions
After the convention I found a bar called Coach and Willies. They were having extended happy hour (score!), so I had a few beers while I waited for my best friend Sarah to get into town from LA. We ended up hanging out for a few hours and I won a raffle while I was there! I got 2 tickets to an Arizona Rattlers game!!! Ive never been to one so I can't wait!
After drinks, we went and hung out with the awesome Evil Robo Crew all night.

Saturday was another day of insanity. The guys from Evil Robo had a hard time getting to the convention the next morning so I gave them a lot of shit when they finally rolled in after 1. I love conventions but they are very difficult weeks because its con all day and parties all night. It's worth it though. It's always a good time.
At 4 on Saturday I had to pack up my table and run to a Western X panel. I was dressed as Nico Robin from One Piece so I sat with the cast, who were dressed as their characters in a bright red har and little bikini top. It was definitely a funny thing to see.

I then ran to makeup for the Steampunk fashion show and walked in a dress by Amanda Tucker at Evermore Nevermore. http://www.evermorenevermore.com/ , was part of a cosplay panel, and then went to the Western X premier for episodes 4 and 5. It was BUSY!! After the con I took Marc Dos Santos over to where the Evil Robo crew was staying and we hung out for a short time.
SO much in just a few short days and that's not even all! Stay tuned, as I'll be posting about the remainder later tonight!
Who of you went to the con this year? Are you going to San Diego and did you cosplay?

Long time no seeeee

2011-04-25T16:42:00.000-07:00

I am back... and with a realistic time frame for when I will be posting.
Since my last post I have been working my ass off! I filmed in a feature film called, "A Man Called Nereus," have been posting, recording and traveling with the website I work with, Comicbooked.com and have been doing tons of other filming, signing and kicking ass. *note: my conceited remarks are most always sarcastic.* (or ARE they?? Dun dun DUNNNN!)
I am working on a lot of projects and plan on adding more often so I will not be able to post daily and won't even promise weekly..... but will stay on it as much as I can.
Right now, I am traveling. I am in desperate need of a new, good camera, but am making due with my phone at the moment. I have to say that being around this much green is something everyone needs. It's refreshing for the soul. EVERY soul! DO IT!

During the next few weeks I will post separate posts on the projects that I have been working on since I last updated as well. As of now -- I just want to let you know that I am back and May 26-29th you can come visit me at the Phoenix Comicon! It's coming quickly and I will be on some panels and part of some great events.
I will also be doing a photo shoot or 2 before the convention too so that I can have some brand new prints! Check out the types of pics (if you haven't yet) that I have here: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Victoria-Paege/135150863172491

I have 1 shoot already set but I want to do some new, fun stuff. I'm thinking maybe some new pinup or rockabilly.....maybe steam punk.....or MAYBE more cos-play. Let me hear some ideas from you. What is the next shoot you'd like to see me do?

2010-10-17T14:20:00.000-07:00

Hey everyone! Thanks for sticking with me through workouts...and no workouts.
I have been doing much better now that I haven't been broadcasting to all what I had "planned" on attaining and doing. It seems to work much better that way. Plus, we all falter at times and I think it's important not only that you see that, but that I can accept that myself and be ok with it.

On another note: After a 6 month seemingly dull period in my work life, everything is coming back together. YAY! I did my 3 day guest appearance at the SabotenCon October 1-3rd and it was amazing. I met some incredible people and my neighbor was an amazing individual by the name of David Doube. David is the author of Dusk( http://www.duskcomics.com/) a dark Vampire comic that was VERY popular with the crowd. I'm going to break into a story about Dusk Comics for a moment because it's important that I include this.

During the convention one of Davids artists, Jolene Houser (http://jolene-h.deviantart.com/) who was to accompany him at his table, got in a horrible car accident on the way to the convention. We got so much support from the attendees and had a huge poster board signed with well wished and a card was passed around to the convention guests that was later taken to her in the hospital. Fortunately, she was released from ICU that weekend and is recovering nicely. David has decided to work with local talent to get a book together to help Jolene out with her insane medical bills. I will make sure to keep you updated with any links so that you can check it out and show support. Also, any artists that may want to contribute, please contact me and I will get you in touch with David. Thank you all for your support.

Last week I received an email from a friend in the business. She had cc'd me on a message that she sent to a director. This director was looking for the lead in his short film 'Raindrops' and couldn't find the right fit. Shortly thereafter, I received an email from the director and we set up a meeting. After meeting with him and chatting for about 3 hours, I am proud to say that I will be playing the lead in the film. There are some other great actors involved as well and we start filming in November. We are going to be filming up north, probably in the Sedona area. I am excited because I have only been there 1 or 2ce years ago with my family and never for an extended period of time. I look forward to working working with this crew and sharing pictures and updates with you.
I also want to let you know that I am now going to be working with Comic Book Divas http://comicbookdivas.com/ as a core member. That means that you will see me at even MORE conventions, sporting their shirts and helping to promote their comics and comics that I have a character in as well. I have 2 different comics coming out in February so if you see me at the conventions make sure to stop by and get a book or some prints.

Also, I have been informed that the Western X spin off in which I play the lead will start filming and producing promo within the next 2 weeks. Western X, by the way, was accepted to the Beverly Hills Film and new media festival and will be showing on October 24th! http://www.bhfilmtvnewmedia.com/

Too stay up to date with the spin off western/action series go to http://asixgunforlobo.com/ You can also follow the show and get updates and behind the scenes pics by following them on twitter: http://twitter.com/ASixGunForLobo

What new web series are you looking forward to? Which genres do you not see enough of?

mmmkay

2010-10-07T00:16:00.000-07:00

So, I've heard this before and I don't know why I thought I was above it. If you talk about your goals, your body and mind think you have already achieved them. It is the most certain way to fail.
Well, my friends, I do NOT want to admit it but I will....I did NOT go the 30 days that I had set out to do.
I am ashamed and upset. This is something that I really wanted to do. Obviously I didn't want it enough because I did not stick with it. I have decided, instead to set my goals but keep them to myself. The good thing is that I will strive -- WEEKLY to post pictures. That way, whether I succeed of fail by my own goals, you will see where I currently am. I have a lot of pictures to motivate myself....now.....just to meet those.
So-- lets set a day-- what day/time are you most likely to check my blog? I will pick the favorite and every week I will take and post pictures of my progress.
I have a lot of convention appearances and a few films in the VERY near future so I need this....
Western X premiered in Sacramento this past month and was very well received. I need to get in VERY good shape for the spin off 'A Six Gun For Lobo" which I should start training for in a few weeks.
I play Alexis Lynch and I will eventually kick serious ass.... who can help keep me motivated?

This is the latest picture of me...... I need to get in even better shape.
This is what I aspire to look like:

By the way-- I want to make sure that you all know I get most of my work outs from bodyrock.tv. Zuzana is amazing and I am so excited that there is a place that I can go online to get great workouts for free and see a hot, VERY in shape chick to keep me motivated.

Day 3

2010-09-16T23:55:00.000-07:00

Alright! Day 3 is coming to an end and I have been doing ok. Not incredible, but way better than nothing. On Day 1 I did some arm exercises. I had trouble sleeping that night and only dozed from 5 am until about 7 am. ***Note to self- turn phone on silent- especially if you are having trouble sleeping. Emails WILL wake you up after you FINALLY fall asleep. *****
As for my "diet", I have been keeping to home made meals, fruits and veggies. Yesterday I made homemade chicken noodle soup. I got 3 lbs of boneless, skinless chicken from a farmers market, used fresh carrots, broccoli, lots of fresh garlic, fresh mushrooms, low sodium chicken broth and an onion. I love seasonings and after hours of simmering and a night of setting in oregano, bay leaves, parsley flakes etc, it is PERFECT for lunch or dinner.
If you have a farmers market, I suggest going and grabbing fresh fruits and vegetables. Farmers markets, rather than a chain grocery store, or even Whole Foods, will have a great variety of fresh and healthy foods at an extremely affordable price. Example? I got all of this:

This only cost me about 10.00. You won't always find awesome deals, but check your weekly ads, or even go online and you can find where to get the best prices weekly. Also, you don't need to buy organic. Organic isn't necessarily better. Also, don't be afraid of FATS. I know it's scary, especially when you

are working on keeping your weight down, but there are different types of fats. Cheese, dairy, nuts: these are all fine. All of these are natural and your body knows how to process them. Remember, you need fat to live. That doesn't mean to only eat meat and cheese, or that can't eat too much. It's foods like sugary cereal, desserts, your favorite coffee with all of that chocolate of caramel.... that will pack on the pounds. Keep everything in moderation.
This 30 day challenge is not a way I am planning on living my life. It is just that, a challenge. I want to see if I can get a little more lean and also, want to see if I can do it mentally.
As for motivation, I have a picture hanging by a mirror that I like to look at for inspiration.

As for working out, on day one I did some arm work. Day 2, since I had only managed 2 hours of sleep, I took it easy and didn't do a workout. However, today I did a circuit. I also got warm up out of the way by putting on some house music (I like stuff like Daft Punk and John B) and moving while doing house work.
I would rather workout at home than at a gym and make use of the little space.

I use my living room which is plenty.

Here are my day 3 (night 3) pictures. I have dropped a little water weight. I can't wait to see how much of a difference I can see after it's all done!

My Challenge

2010-09-14T19:44:00.000-07:00

As some of you may heave read on twitter or my facebook, I am starting a 30 day challenge. During the next 30 days I will not have any sugar, junk food or alcohol. Well, I will do my best not to. This is going to take a LOT of self control and sharing my progress with you will help me stick with it. I will make sure to update much more often than I have been, as I want you to see the progress. It will also help me keep track of measurements and such.
I am going to start off telling you what prompted this. Being the official spokesperson for the Phoenix Comicon this year, and knowing that at the end of May I was going to be hanging out, promoting and interviewing some of the biggest guests of the convention, I needed to be in great shape. I was doing news interviews, being filmed and photographed daily and walking around the convention center in front of around 15,000 guests. I started working out and cutting back on breads, snacking and alcohol and exercising a lot and was happy with my progress. By the end of May, I was confident with myself. However, after an INTENSE 4 day convention, I was exhaused and spent the next 3 days resting and laying around relaxing. I wanted a little break. I didn't have any upcoming projects so didn't need to push myself as hard. Fast forward to the beginning of August......
I took a month and spent some time helping out my family. During this time I still worked, but it was mostly web stuff and no actual filming. The only working out I did was indoors on projects, such as cleaning, painting and various odds and ends. I didn't have anything important so I would enjoy a few drinks. Unfortunately, I found da beer that I like (St. Paulie's girl) and for the first time in 3 years started drinking beer instead of my normal champagne. In just 8 weeks I went up 6 lbs. That's the most I've gained in over 3 and a half years. It's true. Beer makes you fat. SO-- knowing that at the beginning of November I will start stunt training for the Western X (http://www.westernxtheshow.com/) spin off, I know that I need to kick myself back into gear. It's so EASY to be lazy and enjoy desserts, junk food and a few drinks. No challenge in that at all.
Today was day one and here are my starting measurements: (remember, I am short and naturally tiny, but that doe NOT mean that I am toned or even in good shape. You have to work hard for that. The challenge is what makes it that much more rewarding)

Chest (under bust, exhale)-- 27"
Waist- (smallest part of torso)-- 23.5"
Hips- (at hip bones)-- 31.5"
lower waist- (around largest part of butt)-- 35 1/4"

My goals? To be able to kick ass on the series, during training and to tighten up!! To get back to the weight that I was at for the Phoenix Comicon and to keep it down.
I like to work on my muscles and use body weight for a lot of the circuits that I do rather than just focusing on cardio.
If you have, are or are planning on starting any kind of program don't be afraid to share your stories. I will offer support as well! I hope you enjoy following my on this challenge. It's going to be difficult but fun!

It's already September! Happy Labor Day!! I hope that all of you had a great holiday weekend. I got a surprise visit from one of my best friends and got to spend every night hanging out with her! We played apples to apples, went to a going away "party" (after I'd spend the whole day sick in bed-- yuck!) and hung out with friends.

I got a little artsy and framed a few pictures. One was for my 3 year anniversary, I got a Bachalo double splash page MONTHS ago as a surprise. I wasn't about to get it framed because I knew I could save TONS of money and do it myself. I got a frame, sanded it, painted it and then got matting. The hardest part was making sure that all measurements for the matting were exact and that all of the lines were straight. It took FOREVER but I LOVE how it turned out...

I started with maroon on top of the freshly sanded frame.... the black top coat that I added was supposed to add a deep crackle effect. It didn't work. Oh well.

Here are the paints. Just turn your head!

Bachalo piece. BEAUTY.

This is the first mat. I had to then measure the mat, piece of art, frame and large maroon mat. What is exactly in the middle? How far over do I have to start the opening? How much black do I want to show through? It's more difficult than it looks.

Tadaa!! All done!

I'll be doing promo shoots for A Six Gun for Lobo this week as well and then on September 24th I am heading to LA and then the SAC Horror convention for the premiere of Western X! http://www.sachorror.com/

The following weekend, October 1-3rd, I will be appearing as a guest of the Saboten Anime Convention in Scottsdale Arizona and will be hosting some panels as well. I'll have lots of goodies at my table so make sure to stop by! http://www.sabotencon.com/

Dad-a-chum,dud-a-chee,not to worry, you've got the key

2010-08-25T12:29:00.000-07:00

Announcement

2010-08-07T10:09:00.000-07:00

I am happy to announce that I have been cast in the comic Ginger Stein: Rise of the Undead !! I will be drawn by the talented Dennis Willman and will be an Undead Barker Beauty. This is going to be such an incredible character to portray. I can't wait until you see what Dennis does with the art and Jeff Huges does with the story.
Just a little background on how the characters are done... first, you should check out the Comic Book Divas website where many characters can be seen-- http://www.comicbookdivas.com/ or FB http://www.facebook.com/pages/Comic-Book-Divas/161533767436?ref=ts&v=wall . The way that Dennis will be doing my character is by having me actually model and act in the character poses, positions and live action shots... so it's not just my face you're seeing. This is a FUN project. He then incorporates many different artistic techniques to transform the pieces into his own. I will be doing a more in depth write up on Comic Book Divas, Jeff Huges and Dennis Willman next month on http://www.comicbooked.com/
Here is the link for the Ginger Stein: Rise of the Undead casting release.... I am so proud to be included in this project. http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=150225114987905&id=100000279582543&ref=mf

news-a-rama

2010-06-17T21:39:00.000-07:00

Hi again... yeah, the last post and this one are very close together. Deal with it! More to read anyways ^_^

Shelf Life Weekly caught up with me during the first day of the Comicon and did a very short interview. I didn't have much time to chat with them outside of this interview as we were all rushing around but they were very nice men and I thank them for their time.

Phoenix Comicon 2010 Shelf Life Weekly Volume 2 from Shelf Life Weekly on Vimeo.

Now.... I just got a cool piece of news.... although there are no set plans for anything ........yet- I still want to share something awesome with all of you. This is a teaser onesheet from the producer of Western X.

I don't have many details on this yet but what I CAN tell you is that you will be seeing a lot more of me and really get an in depth look at these characters. That means of course, an opportunity for you to watch this character develop in a short amount of time. This is not a movie, just a short side story. I am very hopeful and excited. As I know more I will share.

I have also joined with the AZ Avengers. I will be portraying both X-23 and Pepper Pots, depending on what character is needed. This organization dresses like the Avengers and then does promo work while also focusing on charity work. We will be visiting hospitals, nursing homes etc. in order to bring smiles and love. You can visit and join the facebook page here: http://www.facebook.com/ArizonaAvengers?ref=ts

Remember, I will be at SAC Horror in September in California, the Saboten-con October 1-3rd in Arizona and the Tucson Comicon November 6th in Tucson Arizona.

Also-- WHO'S WATCHING THE WORLD CUP?!?!?! What do you think so far???

Down time

2010-06-17T21:11:00.000-07:00

With the Phoenix Comicon have been over for a few weeks, I have had plenty of time to rest and *****BREATHE*****

I slept the majority of the 3 days following con. I was exhausted. I have since been working on some art...if you can call it that.

I made a low fat chocolate cheeesecake, have cooked some delicious meals, had a few days to spend and catch up with friends and even had time to clean and dust the house. Oh the little things.
As promised, there are many more photos from the comicon that I have posted here for you, along with the interview with No Big Deal. No Big Deal is 1 of the bands that played during the Kids Need To Read Geek Prom. Wil Wheaton, John Scalzi and Felicia Day were all there to host, so these kids definately had a great opportunity to play for a sold out event.

I am going to be finishing the 2nd part of Pen Addiction this week. I have the script and we start fillming this Sunday. I also have some good news about convention apprances! October 1-3rd I will have a table at the Saboten-con in Arizona. It is a 3 day Anime convention and I will be selling posters, t-shirts and lithos from Comic Book Divas "A Life Behind the Mask" web comic. I will also have screen shot lithos and other items from Western X, the Sci-Fi series that I have been cast in. One way or another, I will be participating in the Tucson Comic-con as well on November 6th so now you have 2 other opportunities to come and say hi!

This is Bill and Ben from with their art. You can go to http://www.skulljammer.com/ for more information and awesome art.

This is Anya (left) seamstress, myself as Queen Redd and Vaness Allen body artist. Two wonderful members that were part of my amazing team!

This is me with the band No Big deal after their interview. That's right, puff out those chests!

Here is the link to their interview: http://www.phoenixcomicon.com/index.php?option=com_wordpress&Itemid=79

I'll post more later! What costume was your favorite??

Phoenix comicon 2010!

2010-06-02T22:03:00.000-07:00

WHEW!! It's come and it's gone and I survived! Can you believe it?
I ran around like crazy with a wonderful team that consisted of a great group of people! They were so great, in fact, that I will start by thanking them. First of all, all filming was done by the talented group from Minus Mitchell films. They do not specialize in events or documentaries, by shorts, commercials and other productions. Make sure to take a look at their award winning films (seriously, they've won more awards than I can keep track of- including Best Comedy at the Phoenix Comicon) . http://minusmitchell.com/Minus_Mitchell/home.html
Also with me was my assistant/handler Kayla who was a God send, to say the least. I don't know what I would have done without her. Best EVER. I had photographer Aaron from Skewed iris photography http://www.facebook.com/pages/Skewed-Iris-Photography/80935783756 .
Vanessa of Visualize Creativity who did my body art, http://www.facebook.com/pages/Skewed-Iris-Photography/80935783756#!/visualizecreativity?ref=ts , Stephanie who was my makeup artist http://www.stephanienault.com/ and seamstress Anya Taylor. I also had clothing provided for me each day by Evermore Nevermore.
It was a bit hectic with a large crew but everyone was such a big help.
The weekend started off with me in x-23. I did a news interview for Fox and then got a few interviews in.

On Friday, I was up and back to the Phoenix convention center for a news interview and then stopped in to 106.7 to do some promoting with the radio station. I wore a dress provided by Evermore Nevermore which was created by local artists throughout the beginning of the day.
http://www.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com/photo-gallery.html?func=detail&id=37161
That link is to the dress :)
I spoke with Brian and Kristy from Hi Fi Designs about their work, panels and all of the work they do for all of the major companies like Image, Dc, Disney, Pixar, etc.
I also got to speak and interview artist Shannon Denton. I changed into the Blind Mag outfit that was made by Anya and Stephanie did my makeup. I got to then interview John Schneider, Daniel Logan and the wonderfully talented and adorable Felicia Day. I also will have the Raven Gregory, John Layman and Ebas
interviews for you as well. The outfit was amazing and I was very excited play The bling mag. I sat with Slice of Sci Fi for an hour during their panel.
By the time the panel was over, the corset was digging into my sides so badly that I was about to go crazy. Why does the boning in corsets always dig 'in"?? Unfortunately, because of this, I missed the events at the Hyatt and didn't get to show off the awesome outfit from Evermore Nevermore:

Saturday was a lot less productive on the interview end as we went through some issues. It's a little impossible to go without any problems. I think that 2 interviews got completed that day. Mike DeBalfo was one of those, fortunately and we got to speak about his new cover art. He had some wonderful Phoenix exclusives. I have to tell you that the work he has been doing is so amazing and I am so grateful to know him and get to work with him on occasion.

All the pictures were taken by a photographer provided by Minus Mitchell and by Skewed Iris Photography. They will be posted in http://www.phoenixcomicon.com/ on June 8th and then I will post them here on my blog and facebook. Until then, here are some pics from the shenanigans that went on after everything was over with me, my man and Ebas.

Needless to say, we played in the water.

Who went to the comicon and what was your favoite part?? Did you get to meet Stan Lee? Todd McFarlane? Another favorite?

busy bee... bzzzzzz

2010-05-20T04:09:00.000-07:00

Good morning! or, afternoon, or night.....

How have you all been? Had an exciting week so far?

On Monday I worked with AZ Bay Pictures on a new film they shot called "The Cut Up." This is a short film and I didn't do any acting in it, instead, I was the assistant Makeup artist. Unfortunately I couldn't stay the entire shooting day because of Phoenix Comicon obligations. but I got to work with some of my favorite people in the industry. And I also got to scare the hell out of one of the directors by showing him how- although Im teeny-- I could knock his head off with my high kick. You don't see it coming-- and then

POW!!

It was pretty funny. On Tuesday I did a makeup test with Vanessa Allen of Visualize Creativity http://www.facebook.com/visualizecreativity?ref=mf and wardrobe with seamstress/designer Anya Taylor. I missed my workout AND ab ripper yesterday which was a bummer and today with me running around and getting in full wardrobe for my interview I missed my workout and ab ripper x completely!!

Today, all the running around was for an interview that I did on behalf of the Phoenix Comicon. Raising Arizona Kids http://www.raisingarizonakids.com/ and news channel 12 did a segment on the comicon. Since I am the spokesperson, I decided it would be fun to show up as one of the characters I will be at the actual convention. I went over events that will be going on at the convention. Go to http://www.phoenixcomicon.com/ and order your tickets in advance to save $5.00 and make sure to check out the programming--and my interviews that are posted on the blog.

Skewed Iris Photography and my makeup artist Stephanie Nault spent the morning with me and helped complete the look that you will see in the posted pics.

The interview will air Monday, may 24th at 5pm and then will be on http://www.raisingarizonakids.com/ on Tuesday. Make sure to watch for me and tell me what you think!!

Here are some pictures, these are before and after. You'll see how this went from a super simple starter outfit to an amazing masterpiece. My team is the best :)

Look what I did!

2010-05-16T23:03:00.001-07:00

Thank you SciFi Surplus for taking the time to interview me! I spoke with Casey a few says ago about the Phoenix Comicon and also about what you can look forward to from me in the near furture! Follow the link to listen in to my interview.

2010-05-16T14:40:00.001-07:00

Here we go! It's 11 days until the Phoenix Comicon. It's Crunch time baby!

I've been doing Ab ripper X (from p90x) and the workouts from Bodyrock.tv. If anyone has ever served as inspiration to working hard for a hot body it's that chick. She looks amazing.

I have 2 interviews up and ready to view now, you can watch them here:

Phoenix Comicon 2010 Interview - Brian Skiba - Funny blooper videos are here

I'm having issues with the media sites at this time so to see the Brian Pulido interview go to http://www.phoenixcomicon.com/ and then on the LEFT you will see the link to click into.

As for costumes!!!!- Here is what I will be dressing up as so far--

Ok, I am doing Poison Ivy for sure. That is number 1-- if it is completed by the 19th then you will see me on Channel 12 news representing!! What what!

Now it's up to you!! We have time for a total of THREE more costumes that I will be wearing during the convention from May 27-30th. I will have a different costume on every day of the convention, which will be filmed and photographed. I will also be sitting with A Slice of Sci-Fi on Friday during their LIVE taping- so YOU tell ME what you want to see me in.

One last option that seems to be a favorite so far----

Now it's up to me to continue eating my healthy diet of veggies, fruits, and home made unprocessed foods so that I can look great in whatever you choose. The awesome workouts Im doing will help a bit too ;-p

Time for bed!

2010-05-10T22:27:00.001-07:00

As I lay in bed, after a peaceful and busy day, I think -- what's a good series to catch up on? Having stocked up on comics at Atomic Comics during Free comic book day, and reading Irredeemable #1-- I decide to finish with #2-5 tonight. What's your favorite comic, or late night comic read??

Quick update time!! Happy mother's day ladies and gentlemen than take on the role of both mother and father!
I had a great day. I visited with the parents, went to dinner with great, awesome friends, got a very light workout done on an awesome workout machine, and even got some work done. All in a days work!
For the Phoenix comicon, I've completed 10 interviews. The 1st is posted on YouTube - I don't have the link bc I'm using my phone for this post, but I will embed it soon, along with the Brian Pulido. For now you can visit http://www.phoenixcomicon.com and then go to the blog to the left.
Lots more projects are in the works. Kick ass dudes

Real Chicks Read Comics

**I also have to give a shout out to the crew of Minus Mitchell for their amazing work on all of the videos we're working on. ****
***and also to one of my best friends Donnie Dean of Spectrum FX for his promotion ***

Interterviews and comic hotties!~

2010-05-03T21:59:00.000-07:00

I'm working to keep you as updated as possible on all levels! Facebook, twitter, my blog and soon the Phoenix comicon blog. Phew!!
Here is what's been going on with me: As I told you all, I am fortunate to have the opportunity to have a new comic character modeled in my likeness. The first sketch is done!!

This is a comic that is being written by Jeff Hughes and drawn by artist Dennis Willman. It features some beautiful scream queens, actors and models. I am so very fortunate to be a part of this project. Keep track of the progress by visiting http://comicbookdivas.com/ and adding them on facebook.

Speaking of Facebook...

I am now primarily using Facebook, twitter, this blog, Livevideo.com and the Phoenix Comicon blog. I appreciate all who add and find me on Myspace but I do not use that account and very rarely have time to use that to answer any messages or even see what's going on in your world. Don't take it personally.

Other than this comic, I have been doing a lot of taped interfiews with guests that will be attending the Phoenix Comicon. I have some pictures from some of the interviews... I will post them here, and more can be found- along with video-- at http://www.phoenixcomicon.com/

Make sure you go to the blog. :)

That was at Free comic Book day. The volunteers were helping man the table for the free comicon passes!!

This is a set picture from the feature "Crushed Velvet" directed by Brian Skiba. We got there on a night of a very intense scene. You could tell the intensity just by walking in the room and seeing all of the actors. The aor of such a scene is much like you would exoect to feel in a real situation if you have experienced and talented actors.

And last but not least, here is me getting ready to head out to interview. I don't have any costumes made yet so I decided it would be fun to dress up on my own. Yes, I have beautiful purple in my hair. I got this shirt from Atomic Comics...yes, THE Atomic Comics featured in the movie Kick Ass.

I love the store and have been going for years. I met Mark Millar there weeks after Wanted came out

There I am with Mark Millar, Tony Harris, my ridiculous bangs and my mister-- and War Heroes #1 of course.

Lots of other projects, shoots etc. are in the works. I'll keep you posted like I always do!

I'll be doing some photoshoots and hopping on Livevideo.com to do live q and a's..... what social media do you use?? What would you like to see in future shoots that I do?

Much love and appreciation for all of you--

Post below....

2010-04-27T14:26:00.000-07:00

I am having issues posting from my phone....go figure. Oh well, at least I was able to link my awesome news below. The post below includes information about a new comic book series by the Comic Book Divas. They will be using my likeness to create a villian called Miss. Attraction! That's right, I will be a comic book character!!
If that isn't fun enough, my press release officially went out last week:
Here is the link: http://goo.gl/ozA0

In better, completely unrelated to ME news...... I just read that
Michael C. Hall has recovered from his cancer!! The headline read "Michael C. Hall kicks cancer"
Oh yes, everyones favorite serial killer, and possibly the most handsome, is now cancer free.
That's pretty amazing news, especially considering it was Hodgkins Lymphoma.

Back to my news..... although fun, not as amazing as the news above, but hey- I wouldn't want to have to go through that. I like to keep things a LITTLE less intense.. :)
I did an interview with Brian Skiba of Victory Angel films yesterday. Also got to chat with Writer, Producer, actor, David Hays and the very talented Rich Anderson. They are working on Crushed Velvet. This is an intense look into the television ruled near future. There are a lot of complex angels at which this story could go. As I get more information, and the permission to write about it, I will share. There are also some suprising special guests too. Keep your eyes open for this one.
I will be recording my promo for a podcast in California today. If you are in California, listen for Phoenix Comicon commercials and spots... chances are, that's me speaking.
Another fun interview coming up- tomorrow-- is with Brian Pulido. Brian Pulido is known for a HUGE number of things including Chaos comics, Evil Ernie and Lady Death. He has ventured into film as well and we will be discussing the new project he is working on and what he will have in store for us at the Phoenix Comicon.
This will be fun!!

Very busy

2010-04-12T01:02:00.000-07:00

But...I still love you all. I am headed back to LA this week, and just finished filming in another music video. Thank you to everyone who came to support Jayson James at his charity event at Rawhide. Western X sold tons of shirts... which was amazing. I took a lot of pictures and will post those, along with pictures from filming. this week.
I have started watching Breaking Bad this week. I started from season 1 and am on episode 5. I know I have a lot to go but am sure that I will be caught up before the newest episodes are out. The same happened with Dexter and True Blood. OH THESE SHOWS!!!!!
So many great story plots and good actors..
To think of working with people like these is what keeps me going every day. So many talented people. Wonderful!!

Oh yes...I'm back!

2010-04-02T04:18:00.000-07:00

First, I want to show you one of the new t-shirt designs that will be available this Saturday at the charity event for the series Western X that I am fortunate to have be a part of...

Skewed Iris photography can be thanked for the photography and the design. \This is fun, and I love this cast and crew. Now I sound like I'm kissing ass... believe me- I'm not. :)

Next!! I got my netbook AND a a new phone!! Thank you so much to my friend, Robby, for helping me with the setup and connection.

I will be going back to California, working on a lot of INCREDIBLE news. Stuff that is hard for me to believe myself! I can't wait to share it with you.

Now, I am thinking of playing with my hair again..... I am going to bring back the red. I found some old pictures from when I had my fo-hawk and was playing--

I don't keep the things the same for very long. I am not one for getting too comfortable...it's boring. So what do you think? Time for a fun change?

Western X

2010-03-30T14:10:00.000-07:00

Also, I want to let you all know about the charity event that is being held on April 3rd at Rawhide. This event is for Jayson James who was injured during a stunt. Obviously medical bills can be atrocious, and his were considering the amount of time he spent in the hospital, and the injuries he sustained. We will have shirts for Western X available for sale, and there will be stunt and gun shows all day from groups such as AZ Roughriders.
It is from 11am-10pm at Rawhide in Arizona.

Above is the link with ALL of the information. I hope to see you there!!!

Sir Paul McCartny and California!

2010-03-30T13:54:00.000-07:00

Again, I spend too much time from updating you on my blog! I got a new phone though and will be able to update straight from it!!
I want to start first with a quote...

"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great!"- Mark Twain

On with my updates!
I went to California again to attend some more workshops. I love having the opportunity to work with casting directors in such a close environment. Having the opportunity to read and interact with them and only a small handful of other actors is a great feeling. I also spent some time on the set of Piranha 3D as they finished a few days of reshoots.
I played in the canyon behind the house. went four wheeling to the top of mountains with my friend Sarah and Donnie Dean, and we had our hiking plans interrupted briefly by the appearance of Jesus.

Ok guys...

2010-03-17T02:16:00.000-07:00

So a lot of you haven't seen enough of me- video wise, to know what I am really about. Or, to really understand my sense of humor. I'm sarcastic. A lot of times, I'm cracking up, and don't understand why other people aren't laughing with me......oh yes, I just may be an odd one...
So, that being said, I decided to show you something that makes me crack up...totally.
Again, you probably won't get it....me, on the other hand, am sitting up at 1:30AM laughing out loud, to myself in my living room.
Oh and when you play this.....let it just continue and cycle through the videos.
Unfortunatel I can't find the embed code... but just follow the damn link-- it's pretty easy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGc-whNtBY8

I'm sure that during my many interviews over the next few months, you will have more of an understanding.....I'm just prepping you all.
Another favorite....

See this....oh you can say nerd ......yes, I am a goofball. Get ready guys...This doesn't just make me laugh....it reminds me of how I act sometimes when I am REALLY me.

Love ya all dudes

Work work work

2010-03-13T14:43:00.000-08:00

Today my mind is racing. I was supposed to go to a wedding but instead have been feeling nasous and feverish. I've known this couple and the groom's family very closely for the last 10 years. The fact that I am missing one of their most important days is probably not help the sick feeling I have, nicely settled in the pit of my stomach.
YUCK!
On another note---
I have been thinking a lot about the Phoenix Comicon that I am a part of this year. I will not only have the opportunity to participate at the events and meet all of the supporters, do numerous photoshoots and media spots, but I get to interview the guests before and during the convention. Guests that include media people like:
Wil Wheaton http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000696/
Felicia Day http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000696/
Levar Burton http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000996/)
James Marsters http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0551346/
Lou Ferrigno http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0002073/ <----come on, did you really have click on the link? Doubful.
But comic artists, inkers, and writers such as:
Eric Basaldua- http://ebas.deviantart.com/ I had the pleasure of meeting him last year. His work has gotten even better since just 2009 alone.-- It's aproaching "absolutely fucking amazing." Truth.

Raven Gregory http://www.comicbookdb.com/creator.php?ID=5732

Ethan Van Sciver - http://ethanvansciver.comicbloc.com/

Jonnie Allan- http://www.akacomics.com/

I have to admit that I am thrilled to have this opportunity. As you remember, I did promotions and video blogs for the Tucson Comiccon last year. This is similar....just multiply it.

(TCC X more amazing) X (More guests, bands) X (much bigger convention center and spanning 4 days)= My new job.

Yes, it is going to be a show, that's for sure. I will be doing cosplay too. I have some costumes in the works.

Now this will be my first posistion doing interviews. I figure, I can host, act and model. I should be able to pull of some pretty good interviews.

We have bands playing, awesome events, panels and more. I will be at the Mesa Bookmans tomorrow from 130-3pm while the signing is going on. I won't necessarily be at the table, but if you look hard enough, you'll probably find me roaming the store....Make sure to say hi!!!!!

I have some pre-con interviews set up- but you have to watch the http://www.phoenixcomicon.com/ website to see them!

****Now, I'm going to spend some hours brainstorming and figuring out which questions to ask all of these amazing people....*******

A vaincre sans péril, on triomphe sans gloire.

2010-03-09T17:36:00.000-08:00

Today has been incredible. I woke up, bundled in my super warm, soft blanket and could only hear the soft pitter patter of the rain. I had put a roast in the crock pot last night so the house smelled delicious. I rolled over and picked up my phone and saw that I had a new email, letting me know that I have an audition for a feature film that will be filming soon. This is one of those mornings you never want to end.

Later, I got a package in the mail, which is like Christmas. You may know what you got, but it's brand new and you get to open it all by yourself. Ha. My brand new Emilio Pucci sunglasses arrived!! I am in LOVE with them.

They are fun. Other than that, I am keeping busy like usual. I shoot with Fausto Hernandez Photography- http://www.faustohernandezphotography.com/ tomorrow, am finishing up a mockumentary and am leaving for L.A. again next week.

The last music video that I was in for the band Access Zero (http://www.access-zero.net/ ) been released!! Thank you to AZ Bay pictures for letting me take part in this project, and for making another amazing video. Great job to cast, crew and the wonderful band.

Access Zero "Little Stranger" from Jd of Damaged Goods Media on Vimeo.

Again, cosplay for the Phoenix comicon is still something that we are looking into. Any and all suggestions are appreciated....

The last week

2010-03-08T02:04:00.000-08:00

The last TWO weeks have been rather eventful for me. I met with the Phoenix comic con and got confirmation that I will be the SPOKESPERSON for the con! I will be interviewing the guests, dong a few media spots, taking over their blog, doing COSPLAY...and MUCH MUCH more. Are you excited?? I certainly am!

I also joined the cast of the series Western X http://www.westernxtheshow.com/ I had a chance to work with some amazing and incredible actors and the crew. You all need to keep an eye out for this because it is going to be intense. Here are some EXCLUSIVE behind the scenes pics...

On another note, I am heading back to LA to go to a few more workshops and work with some more casting directors. I will hang out with my good friend Donnie :) I'll probably get some more amazing sushi! I will do all I can do get more behind the scenes freebies for you...

In the mean time.....
I may be doing cosplay for my interviews-- remember- I will be interviewing guests like Levar Burton, Wil Wheaton, Felicia Day, and James Marsters.....

What should I dress up as?? I wonder…..

Red Carpet....

2010-02-25T16:22:00.000-08:00

I always have a ridiculously good time in California, this time was no exception. I was on an FX storage lot with a friend and found a phone booth. I had to get pictures.

I did a lot of shopping, went off-roading, and then got ready for "The Resolve" series premiere. I will have WAY more pictures Friday or Saturrday. For now, here is a picture of myself and Helen McCready at the premiere. Good times.

2010-02-25T16:13:00.000-08:00

I have had so many things going on lately that I don't even know where to start. I got to go spend 3 wonderful weeks with my family, in which time we had a massive amount of snow fall. It had been 3 years since I had been home, and just as long since I got to play in the snow. The first snowfall was 14" of powder, which cars were getting stuck in all over town. I have so many pictures and videos but left them all at home..... I will post as soon as I get them back.
I did as much busy work there as I could. I painted my Mom's kitchen a beautiful yellow called chiffon pie, (which took me 3 days), helped organize things around the house, shoveled snow, and helped with my Grandma. She is absolutely wonderful. Because of a mishap with the airline I ended up having to pay last minute for a return ticket, although I had already bought a round-trip ticket. Continental will cancel any return flights you have if you miss a connecting flight on the way to your destination. They do this without an email, warning, heads-up or anything. Just in case you are thinking of flying that airline, there is something to think about. A very pricey something to think about.
I was so tempted to stay a few weeks longer, I don't think it's ever been so hard to leave home. I am very fortunate to be so close with my family. They are the best :)

As we were leaving for the airport I saw this GIANT deathsicle and jumped out of the car to take a picture. AHHHH!!! DONT look up!

I went back for sushi and the chef's made me Lobster Sashimi. I got to see the Lobster before I ate the dish. I got the tail- and then the rest was used on top of the most delicious crab roll I have had in my entire life. I don't think I've ever eaten so much sushi in a sitting. Those guys are the best. To show my appreciation for awesomeness and great great food- I am going to show you who they are. If you are in Santa Clalrita and you see these two preparing your sushi, you just found a gold mine.

Sushi sashimii

2010-01-24T19:38:00.000-08:00

What a week! After my last post I had written a few other paragraphs that somehow didn't make it on the page, so this will sound like a pretty busy week....again.
I got to work on Pen Addiction 2 this week. Filming was relatively short, but well done. I am so happy to be working on the second parif this mockumentary. The first was kind of thrown together last minute, but came out really well done. This one, with more prep time, will give us a little more to work with in character development.

I left Friday for Burbank. I drove down with a friend and then spent all of Saturday in a Master comedy workshop taught by Jason Alexander. This was an incredible opportunity and I HIGHLY recommend it for any actor. He is a tremendous teacher, walking through with the students and breaking down the scene bit by bit to help you on technique. He is a very talented, patient and hilarious individual. I will take the class again in a heartbeat. Well worth the time.
After the workshop I met up woth some sushi in beautiful Santa Clarita. We ate at a little hole in the wall sushi place, and I continue to believe that those are the best. The atmosphere was comfy but fun, and the chefs were great entertainment.

I tried a DELICIOUS new wine called Bohae, and hen tried a bite of sea cucumber. The sea cucumber had the worst texture I've ever experienced. It literally felt like it was a muscle that clenched up when I bit it. It was not something that I will be making a regular addition to my sushi nights. Hey, at least I tried it.

I had a wonderful time. I did have enough time get to see all of my friends, but since I plan on being there every other week, I have plenty opportunities.

I got back in town this morning at around 9am, and now I am packing for my next adventure. This time, I will be close to some very important people in my life, and for more than a few short nights. I leave tomorrow morning at 8am. Rush rush rush! Anyone anything fun this week? I know it was raining a lot.... plenty of opportunity to play in the puddles!!!

Much better - no leakage

2010-01-21T23:17:00.000-08:00

If you have not yet seen the Piranha 3d trailer-- here it is---and it ISN'T a leaked version. Nice. I am very happy the opportunity to been a part of this and I can NOT wait to see it on the big screen.

T.A.T.U.

2010-01-18T23:56:00.000-08:00

Hahaha...wow.....so, I know that T.A.T.U used to play up the whole lesbian thing....but I had never seen one of ther performances until today. This, to me, is awesome., Talk about knowing how to play your audience. Young girls. See though white shirts, young background dancers...and acting like you are doing each other onstage....

Classic
I can't say I wouldn't do the same...these ladies sure know what people want tosay. Hahahaha-- awesome.

Yowza!

2010-01-18T16:53:00.000-08:00

Yesterday , the 1st day in the last 7 that I have felt good, I had a photoshoot. I got to go hiking, clim huge rocks and look over the desert. It was so beautiful.
When I got home I caught the tail end of the Grammy's. I had heard that (My favorite!) Michael C. Hall had won best actor for Dexter, so I was more than excited to watch the end of the broadcast to hopefully catch a glimpse of him and his adorable wife Jennifer Carpenter.

In other award news....

Holy Shit-- she sure is beautiful...and I love the dress......but WOW
yup.
On another note-
Photoshoot went well yesterday, I should be followup to Pen Addiction Wednesday and I will be in L.A. Friday.
Ill be posting new pictures soon so stay tuned honey bunnies!

Selfish

2010-01-15T16:20:00.001-08:00

I can not believe I neglected to mention Haiti and the horrible devastation they are going through. Mother Earth is very powerful. We must remember this. My heart goes out to all of those that have to suffer, and I am so happy that so many are choosing to help, either by donation, or by being there in person.
It is incredible the amount of funds that have come in through mobile donations. Verizon wireless is donating dollar for dollar all donations that come in from VZW customers. Texting "Haiti" to 90999 will donate 10 dollars to the Red Cross for the relief fund. Other companies are also accepting donations- here is how you can donate to them:
Text: "Yele" to 501501 to donate 5 dollars on behalf of the Yele Foundation, the leading contributor to rebuilding Haiti. This is founded by Wyclef Jean.
"Haiti" to 20222 to donate 10 dollars to the Clinton Foundation for Haiti Relief.
"Haiti" to 85944 to donate on behalf of the International Medical Corporation.
"Haiti" to 25383 to donate 5 dollars on behalf of International Rescue Committee.

Some good news? In less than 3 days, more than 300,000 Vzw customers have donated more than 3 million. As of 11am today, Verizon Wireless has reported that the sum of all donations by mobile total 9 million, which is by far the 'largest day in the history of Mobile giving'.
You can also go online to www.verizonfoundation.org/haiti
Thank you to all the people that have donated and sacrificed for the ones in need. I am sure they appreciate it more than you can imagine.
Victoria Paege

Big week

2010-01-15T14:13:00.000-08:00

It's a big week for a lot of people- like the whole Tonight show debacle...

Have you been keeping tabs on this? I haven't really, but it seems as soon as I log online Conan, Kimmel and Leno are being pushed in my face. Luckily for me, it's entertaining. Unluckily for Conan, it's annoying, disrespectful and probably pretty unexpected/unbelievable. I really feel for entertainers. It's so rough, and putting years and years into a show and then being treated like a low rated show is pretty ridiculous. :/

Here are some links if you want to read anything about it....

http://www.wwtdd.com/2010/01/jimmy-kimmel-annihilated-jay-leno/

http://www.wwtdd.com/2010/01/conan-is-done-next-week/

If not....here is my week.

I have a photo shoot for a health and wellness magazine/website this Sunday. I get to do a small blurb that will be featured on the site too-- I'll provide links when it is out :)

Tuesday I am working with the Phoenix comic con on some videos - yay!

I may be shooting with the amazing Pierre Price Monday or Wednesday and will be filming part 2 of a mockumentary in there somewhere as well. Add to that driving to Burbank for an 8 hour master comedy class with the immensely talented Jason Alexander, and then packing for my 3 week vacation and that's my week.

I will be EXHAUSTED!!!

Good!! I STILL have been sick. This makes 5 days of waking up with a super sore throat. I was up coughing most of the night which is annoying to say the least!

On another note-- I saw an AWESOME movie last night--- Pirates of the Great Salt Lake. This is a must watch. Grab some beer and get ready to laugh. http://www.piratesofthegreatsaltlake.com/

Have fun!

I'll post pics as soon as I get them.

Also, a great big thank you to Rapid Ice photography for the winter pics!

I was suposed to go to Burbank this week....which I am sad to report didn't happen. I very rarely get sick, but it seems I have come down with something aweful. I woke up yesterday with an aching back, headache and sore throat. I had a hot breakfast- delicious!- and started feeling a bit better.
My breakfast was wonderful, and I had been craving it for weeks. I got an egg white, cheddar, broccoli and diced ham omlete with fresh fruit and a low fat blueberry muffin. I was in heaven!

I figured this morning I would be on my way, and able to attend 1 of the 2 workshops. Unfortunately, at 2 am I was doubled over in pain. The stomach issue that I had been so happy to have been rid of the past 6 months seemed to have returned, and it was not a welcome come back. Hopefully it is just because my immune system is down. Ive been in bed all day with a sore throat and cough. I am very fortunate to have tomorrow free from any and all obligations. I will be writing more when I feel better. Thank you all for your well wishes. :)
You make me smile.

Happy New Year....

2010-01-05T11:59:00.000-08:00

We're almost a week through 2010...pretty insane. I have a busy couple of weeks in the near future. On the 11th I am leaving for some workshops in Burbank. I get to work with 2 casting directors (score!), and then have some video work for Cavalry Arms. The "Access Zero" music video is in post-production as we speak and should be out in the next few weeks as well. On the 23rd I get to attend a 7 hour master class with Jason Alexander. We'll see if I come out with some improved comedy techniques.
I almost forgot!!!! My web page is up! http://www.victoriapaege.com/
Thank you do Darren Jones Design for helping with the website setup! If you haven't seen the page yet, I have a portfolio section with my pictures, a link here, and then if you go to the contact section, you can link to my Metacafe and Youtube for videos. Links for my IMDB, resume page and Myspace are also there too. Check it out bitches. Do it! Do it NOWWWW....
Here is my favorite new video....I'm in love.

Enjoy......
Also- just to let you know..I will be posting pictures in the "portfolio" section of my website that I will not be posting anywhere else. Just a little extra for those of you that go to my page :p
xoxoxoxox

How most of us will feel tomorrow...

2009-12-31T17:41:00.000-08:00

Happy New Year my friends!! I want to start off with a little video I found today- this is awesome-

I hope that plays for you.
As we approach the new year, I want to reflect upon all the wonderful things that happened this year. I will not make a list of worldly things (the discovering of a new planet, the untimely deaths of many loved actors/producers/icons etc), but rather, reflect upon some wonderful things in my own life. This is probably more beneficial for me than you, but- hey-- you're reading it too :)
This year, above everything, I am grateful for all of my new friends. It is amazing the opportunities that I got a chance to live, but my new and old friends stay number 1. You are all so important in my life and I am so happy to have all of you around. I am most fortunate for you and I thank you for letting me into your lives.
Next, I got to work on my first television show (My Boys- episode 3.9), my first televison movie (Maneater- Lifetime), walk the red carpet (Wolverine Premier in Tempe), work on my first feature film (Piranha 3d) and got posted on the Fangoria and Gorezone websites. Through all of those projects, I met and worked along with amazing actors, directors and FX crew. I couldn't have ever imagined the great things that 2009 held in store for me.
I now belong to an acting studio in Burbank and get to work hands on with casting directors, have my official website under construction, am working with the Phoenix comicon, a new production company, and was in another music video- this time for the band Access Zero.
Phew! busy year!!! I can NOT wait to get moving on 2010! I want to FAR exceed my accomplishments of 2009-- I am JUST getting started.
What were the most important parts of 2009 for you? What stands out the most, and what is the most exciting thing to be ending??
I have learned a lot about myself this year as well, especially what needs to be done in order to get the most out of life. We all have something that we are more passionate about than anything. Talking to a friend on Christmas,we were reflecting on our loved ones lost and what we love most about being here on earth. He said, "Do you know what the definition of 'passion' is? It is what you are willing to endure for what you want most strongly. A strong driving force " For me, loving every minute of life is what I am most passionate about, living for now, not being afraid of what MIGHT happen, taking chances, is what I live for. I am not saying I do this easily, or even every day. I do as much as I am able to though. I threw the word "try" from my vocabulary a while ago. Trying, is not doing, therefor there is no use in the word. I may as well say, I thought about it....but just "didn't."
One of my favorite new people took the jump. Stopped being afraid and just did. He is now living and doing everything that he ever thought possible, and WAY more. If we refuse to believe that things will go our way, then we are making that so. The thing that we all must remember, is that you can never go wrong by doing. If you are waiting for the "right moment," it will never come. Honestly, if everyone thought that way, life would probably be a much more difficult place. It isn't up to me to change your mind, I am just saying what I believe.
I hope that 2010 and many many years after are all very wonderful and full of love, life and happiness for all of you.

And the count down begins....

2009-12-20T06:51:00.000-08:00

With Christmas right around the corner I want to take some time to let you all know how much you are appreciated. I appreciate you taking an interest in what I have to say, looking at the pictures I post, watching the videos I embed, and even leaving me comments telling me what you think.
It means a lot and I thank you all for being here with me and for me during my crazy, fun, fantastic shenanigans. I will be doing a lot of traveling, as I am sure most of you will, also over the next month. I have family to visit, workshops to attend, and even some photoshoots and filming to do (weeee!).
I am going to start working more closely with the Phoenix Comicon (http://www.phoenixcomicon.com/) and making some more videos for you to watch. I will be highlighting guests, vendors and may even have some fun polls for you to participate in. As always, I will keep you up to date :)
If I don't post before----

Merry Merry Christmas!!

Piranha 3d trailer!!!!

2009-12-17T16:11:00.000-08:00

Oh yes!! It is finally here!! Remember this?! Yes- that's us during filming of Piranha 3d. The Trailer is FINALLY being released and will be attached to most copies of Avatar, opening this week. I am so excited for this, I am going to pee my pants.....yeah....ok, I already did. I'm not gonna lie. Go here: http://www.shocktillyoudrop.com/news/topnews.php?id=13322 to read about the trailer. I will be able to post some more, most awesome pictures after the movie has been released. YAY!!!!!

Pictures and projects

2009-12-08T13:32:00.000-08:00

This is one of the pictures from the shoot I did with Faustohernandez.com (more pics here: http://www.faustohernandez.com/photos/hannys/ ) Let me tell you that this was one of the most interesting places that I have had the opportunity to shoot in. It was very modern and so fun. The restaurant is called Hannys Bar and it is in Phoenix. I LOVED it and hope to shoot there again. I at least plan on going for some champagne cocktails- hehe.

I also have some winter pictures that I will be posting soon from my shoot with Rapid Ice Photography. I'm working on some video ideas for the Phoenix Comicon and just paired with a production company and will be doing a very large amount of projects- ranging from photoshoots to webisodes, feature films, comics, etc. I will be talking a LOT about it in the near future. It's an amazing opportunity!

Fw: Good news and more good news

2009-12-07T20:17:00.001-08:00

So much good, awesome, amazing news- be careful! Your head might explode!!!
First, we walked outside to start the day to the smell of fresh rain! I had my new comfy sweater and high boots on so I was super warm, and it smelled sooo good outside. Then, while Christmas shopping I found the PERFECT dude gift- Bacon Chocolate. For real- smoked bacon paired with dark chocolate. *drool*
It then starting POURING rain and I got to run through it and jump in puddles! It was so much fun!

--on a side note---just got word that Ill be working on another awesome project w/a great and talented group of people. This is gonna knock your socks off.
Also- my shoot yesterday went great. Check out Fausto Hernandez photography. I can't wait to see and post pics from this one :). The pic is of me in one of the vanity spots in the buildings hall of mirrors--- it was an intense location to say the least!

woweeee

It's been a while my friends! I have been carried away with the holiday shopping craze, mostly online, and have not done much on any social networking sites.
Let's change that. I have a new netbook that I plan on using when I make my trips out to Burbank. That way, I can stay connected when away from home. It is a necessary evil. I am now with an acting studio so I will be traveling 1ce or 2ce a month to Burbank for workshops and even more whenever an audition is held.
I am now working with the Phoenix Comicon!! I will be doing promoting- web videos, interviews with the artists, and much more. They have lots of information on the site (http://www.phoenixcomicon.com/), including a growing list of guests!! Felicia day from "The Guild" and "Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog" was announced and we are VERY excited to have her, along with many other fabulous people join us this year.
I will let you know when I post any videos or interviews and will provide links on my twitter as well. I may also start another blog specifically for the phx con. I will keep you all updated.

Don't drown in the holiday madness- reach up above the enticing sales and grab on to some good old fashioned hot cocoa and sit by a fire.

Hole in 1 !!

Meaning of course...that there are going to be photos from 3 events in this post. It makes perfect sense. I don't know why you would be confused.....moving on...

Saturday, November 14th, I worked on a music video with AZ Bay pictures. It was for the band "Access Zero" and it was an absolute blast. Filming started at about 9 am and was set to continue until about 7pm. I had to leave at 530 pm though so I am not sure what time they completely wrapped for the day. It was shot in an abandoned wing in a hospital and you better believe I went off and did some exploring on my own. It was definately creepy but really interesting. Let me know if you want to see any hospital pics...

The 1st makeup I got was a bit too bloody...so as you can see we had to remove it...and then start over. It was fun, yet, itchy and the smell was NASTY. bleah.

Next up was my trip to Burbank! After the filming, I had 1 day of rest (haha--not completely) before I had to get to California to meet with a casting director and attend a workshop. We drove from 8am to 330pm before I got an hour break for my meeting. By the time I was finished, I had a 2 and a half hour break before the workshop. I decided to meet with a friend 15 miles away for dinner. Californa traffic, howerver, had me stuck in the car. By the time we met up, I had my friend hop in the car, and we drove right back to the studio. I had 0 time out of the car and no time for dinner :( luckily, at 1 that afternoon, I stopped for some lunch with the dinosaurs.

Last but not least...**I know, this is a long one guys**
I went to the Dethklok signing this morning!

We left California after a 3 hour cat nap, and then got home at about 11am. I don't even know why I am still awake right now since I have to be up in 5 hours. I have a Photoshoot this Friday morning and then a meeting regarding some more possible comic promoting. Cross your fingers!!! Saturday I am going to another workshop with a casting director, this one is 6 hours though. Phew!! November has been insane. Just.....the way....I like it!

Raaaawr! Long month so far! There is so much I have gotten to do, so many projects in the works, and lots of sleepless nights. Yesterday at 8 am I left for Burbank. We stopped for some lunch (yum- Burger King). There were dinosaurs!! I've never seen Pee Wee's big adventure, but I hear that's what they are from. :). Then, I went to AIA studios, had an audition and then 2 hours later got to attend a workshop w/some wonderfully talented actors and casting director. By the time the class was out and I got to a friends to sleep, it was already 1230. I missed dinner completely, but it was worth it. I got to sleep until 4 and now I'm on my way back home. 900 miles in 24 hours, dinosaurs, 3.5 hours of sleep and 2 reads for LA casting directors. Not bad. :).
Also, I worked w/ AZ Bay pictures on Saturday, filming for a new music video. Ill have pictures and more information up 1ce I get to a computer!!!

speedy quick like a bunny!

2009-11-09T15:29:00.000-08:00

I only have a few minutes so I'll give you a super quick overview of my week until I get some more time tonight or tomorrow. I have had such an interesting, busy, fun time.
The days sort of run together but duing the week I accomplished tons. I got my headshots printed and sent out to Burbank which was great, considering I have a meeting/audition/workshop there next Tuesday. I drove to Tucson (100miles), got locked in a bathroom at a book store, drove back to do 5 hours of work, back to Tucson for the Comic con, and then back home all within about 30 hours. 400 miles, 2 tanks of gas and lots of fun. The bathroom thing was really funny though. I love how sometimes the most unexpected things can happen and they just brighten your day. The attendant kept apologizing through the door, and I just sat on the sink and laughed and laughed. How often does that happen? Luckily it was a 1 person restroom and was suprisingly nice- and didn't stink (phew!).
The comic con was amazing. Unfortunately I only got to spend 2 hours there but I got to visit with the artists, get some great art, and wonder around. I apologize to all of you that missed me. Next year I will be a part of the promoting as well and will make sure that I am there the entire day so you can come say "Hi" and visit :)
I'll go into more detail later but here are some pics!

check-check it out---

2009-11-04T18:12:00.000-08:00

A GIANT Thank you to S. Pierre Price for the headshots. Here are a few-- I would post more but because of the size of the files they take a very long time to load :)

Here it is...

The more I watch her stuff (Miss Wiig)...the more I laugh and squirt milk out of my nose. I can be the biggest spaz and some of this comedic Angel's sketches remind me of ....well....me. I'm not saying I'm funny like her at all....she is one of a kind. But-- just watch...Those who know me will understand.

Photos..and carrots!

2009-11-02T14:43:00.000-08:00

ha- I got ya! There are no carrots in this blog. What, are you crazy?? I spend last night watching the World Series and doing a photoshoot. I needed some new headshots for an acting course I will be taking in a few weeks. I did my own makeup and S. Pierre Price came over to snap some great images. :) I can't decide which one I want to use as my headshot, but I have a really good lot to pick from, and even have some fun ones I can just keep for my portfolio.

news

2009-10-30T23:58:00.000-07:00

I was up for 35 straight hours!! I think that's a new record for me. Ha- it was kind of fun. I sat and made a Beginners French study guide.
Today when I walked outside it was cold. This is the first day that it has gone from chilly to cold- and I love it. I will be walking around the house with one of my comfy robes on for the next few months, and visiting my family so I can hang out in from of a beautiful fire in their fireplace. This is my favorite time of year! Now- I just need to get myself a good 3 or 4 pair of boots and some nice sweaters.
I'm heading to bed for some well deserved sleep (I also did a lot of cleaning, including scrubbing and vacuuming the inside of my car).
I will leave you with something from one of my favorite people in the business--- *giggle* - oh yes- crush ;p

Comic con!

2009-10-29T15:15:00.000-07:00

I'm kind of bummed. I was supposed to shoot the last of my scenes for the short film, "The Backup Plan" but it got cancelled and pushed to later in November. Luckily, I have 2 very exciting events coming up. November 7th, as you all should know and be planning for, is the Tucson Comic-con. If you haven't yet- make sure to join the TWITTER page-- www.twitter.com/tucsoncomiccon. There will be some amazing artists and local vendors this year. Make sure to watch the video blog for detailed information and names.
The other thing I am looking forward to is November 14th. I am filming again with AZ Bay Pictures. They are filming another kick ass music video so I will be busy working all day with that crew/cast/band. In case you don't remember or haven't yet seen any of their work, here is the last video they did for "The Love Me Nots"

The Love Me Nots "You're Really Something"

CritterTeeth Films

MySpace Video

Like always, I will be posting pictures and keeping you as updated as possible during all of this.
I finally got new innertubes for my tires so I am going to be doing a lot of riding around town- I am so excited I'm going to explode.
Halloween is a few days away-- what are you going to be??

oh I know....

2009-10-25T01:18:00.000-07:00

I’m back just to post a very quick little blog tonight.

It's more of just me spouting out about things that I have been thinking to myself and I wish that I could share with all of you the feeling that I have. I am a strong believer in the fact that we are all here for one reason, and that is to do everything we can to be happy. Religion isn't really something that I fall back on, or use as a crutch, so I believe primarily in the here and now. I am not saying I don't believe in some higher being, spirit, or entity. I am just saying that I do not believe in the sugar coated promises of something much much better than what we have here. We have some time here while our energy fuels our vessel and we have to make the absolute most of it. Every breath is beauty, power, and energy. I like to use that keep the most positive feelings flowing throughout. I am going to live life as I want. What I have the most fun doing, what fills me with absolute joy and complete passion is what I will live my life doing. There is no reason in the world not to. Why else would we be here? We are not living our lives for someone else. That is what they have their own life for. Look around, soak it in. Close your eyes and just breathe. Everything is beautiful. The world is so amazingly vivid and awesome and intense. While at the same time- soft, beautiful and soothing. Everything is unexplainable wonderful. When things get rough we can always just sit and listen to everything and remember that good news is always around the corner.

I may have confused you but that is exactly how I feel. I love so many things and can't wait to continue living and breathing in life.

In other news-- I have a funny story to share with you--

I seem to have a new "admirer" of sorts. Someone who is interested enough to look up every account I have. Someone who not only finds all of my accounts, (Face book/MySpace/Model Mayhem/My Blog), but is also kind enough to share with all they know, the links, and even screen shots of my sites. This person even takes my pictures and loads them into their own photo hosting site. Aww, how flattering. Not to mention what a great way for me to get more views. It's always good to know when someone that I don't even know is so passionate about me. It's very good for me personally :)

There is no such thing as bad publicity. That being said-- here are some new pictures for you all. Good night!

2009-10-23T15:08:00.000-07:00

Hey! I haven't been keeping up on any of my sites lately so I am stopping in to let you all know I'm alive. Ok, maybe I'm convincing myself I am alive and well a little bit too. Things have been kind of hectic. I have been running around doing lots of little life things. Not necessarily attending events, filming or doing any shoots, but hey- life happens too. I will be finishing my filming in "The Back-up Plan" by Jeff Singer on December 31st. I will also be going to a Halloween party that night, and working in the afternoon. That is going to be one LOOOOONG day. Filming will start at 5am, and then party will not end until well after midnight. Scot and I decided to go as Alice and the Mad Hatter. I will be a dark Alice though (think- Raven Gregory).
The comic-con is still being put together and will be held on November 7th at The Hotel Arizona in Tucson. This will be from 10am to 7pm and will have lots of great guests and artists. I can not wait to get some new sketches.
I cleaned my bike off yesterday and now just need some new tires, as I will be doing a lot of riding this fall/winter. I love being out in the cool crisp air. There is nothing better than feeling that chill. The slight bite on my skin makes me feel so alive. I just get filled with intense happiness. I love it.
I signed up for a few acting workshops for the next few months and will be getting new headshots that I will post to show all of you. I may be taking an acting class in college next semester, depending on how the money situation goes.
That's all my ramblings for today. I'll talk at you all later. xoxoxoxoxo

Laugh, Live and be as goofy as you want. Live strictly for yourself. Life. Is. Great.

I am a major sleepyhead. I had a very easy half day at work today. I had meetings from 11 until I was off, went to lunch with a friend, ran some quick errands and now its time for a nap. I couldn't sleep AGAIN last night so this is much needed! Xoxoxo

New video for Cavalry Arms!

2009-10-12T20:26:00.000-07:00

Today I spent the morning filming and shooting a promo video for .22 rimfire conversion kits for Cavalry Arms. I had to get up super early to film- but I had sooo much fun!

Also, I should have the new video blog for the Tucson Comic-con uploaded by tomorrow, but I want to let you know ahead of time that they now have a TWITTER account! YAY!!!

****Ps- yes, I say I'm "Meg" with Cavalry Arms, in the video. Thats what they call me...it's still me- Victoria. Silly people :)

New feature film

2009-10-06T14:57:00.000-07:00

I have some interesting news. I met with a producer this week in regards to a feature film he is shooting at the end of this month. I was going to be reading for the lead. He sent me over the script a few days before to read over so that I could have insight and some time to prepare. As I am reading through the script, I realize that the main character is 40....I'm much younger than that, and since he has spoken with me and seen my headshots I figure- he's the one in charge, he knows what he's doing.
As soon as I meet him, the first thing he says is, "Oh, you're going to be too young." I laughed and told him I was wondering about that. He then offered me a supporting role, telling me he still wants me in the film, and gives me the night to re-read the script and get back with him.
I take some time to really go over the script again, deciding that my new character is one I would like to play. This time, when I speak with said producer, he says, "Well, you may not work for that character now because she is also supposed to be around her late 30's, early 40's." At this point I have to laugh. I am told that he is going to write in a character for me so that I can still be in some scenes, have some lines and also have a definate credit on IMDB for the film.
Should I even bother with it at this point? It won't be very much preparation on my part now that I will only have 2 scenes. I don't really know if this is in fact meant to be anymore. Maybe I am going to get an offer in another film and all of this will be my determining factor. I am flattered that he wants me to be in the film so much as to write in a role for me. That is amazing...however, it seems like it may be more of a hassle than it is worth. What do you think?

yay!

2009-10-02T19:05:00.000-07:00

IMDB may have accidently erased all of my credits- but this site didn't!
You will need Google translater though...haha- It's on Romanian. By the way- there is finally a new picture up for the movie poster of Piranha 3d :) **click on the title of the blog to get to the page***

blog time.

2009-09-28T16:22:00.000-07:00

I had a few hectic days between posts!!
I went to Palm Springs for my Tia's funeral. On the way up we hit something and it caused the truck to keep stalling over the next 2 days, until my Dad fixed it. Thank God for intelligent and mechanically inclined parents. We stayed at a resort and spa while there, it was AMAZING. The pool immediately outside of our room had a bar but was full of people drinking and partying (weeee!!), but we had my sisters with us so we went down to the main pool which was empty. The main pool was INCREDIBLE though and I would have much rather been there anyways. One entire side was lined with those giant beds and pillows under ramadas (?). I'm not sure if I'm using the right word but they were covered individually and if you wanted you could pull the curtains down and have the beds to yourself for massages or whatever else. I want to book that place again with some friends and just go down and lay at the pool and sip champagne, or fruity mixed drinks. It would have been expensive to drink, considering a 3 egg omlete was 13.00 on the room service menu.
After we got home, I hung out with the family and then headed home to bed. The next day I was back at work. I however, had a massive headache so went home, took some advil and started season 1 of True Blood before turning in for the night.
I got invited to model for the Fetish Ball again this year!! October 10th at 8pm in Scottsdale. I go in for my fitting on October 5th. I'm excited this will be HOT! I am going in today or tomorrow to buy a black and green vinyl dress I fell in love with last week.
Have you seen this?

Barack Obama's amazingly consistent smile from Eric Spiegelman on Vimeo.

Tell me that isn't odd. His hand and body move, but his head and face stay almost exactly the same. Hmmm... practice that smile much Mr. President?

tooo day

2009-09-21T23:13:00.000-07:00

I got up and ate some golden grahms.....sooo yummy. Last night I was up really late crying and talking about life stuff that I can only really open up and tell my man. Hint: I miss my family in Ohio and missed the past 12 years of being with my family and my brothers have grown without me. Anyyyywayyyys--- I had my breaskfast, and then we left to pass out fliers. I hit up some Atomic Comic shops, Bookmans, Gregs comics, etc., THen I went to Scottsdale to meet with the set photographer from the last film I was in. Since I played the lead he had made a poster of me and framed it for me as a suprise. Scot hung it up in our bedroom. It's awesome.

After picking up my awesome photo we went to grab some dinner and then put dropped off some more fliers at zia records.
So- I decided that I will be Jo or Meg from Burst Angel.. I see that I am getting a lot of views per day. If you don't tell me what you want to see then I can't do a poll. Don't be shy--- what do you want to see me as on November 7th at this years Tucson comic-con? Let me know.

*****I can not neglect to add that my Tia Ruth passed away yesterday after a courageous battle with cancer- Rest In Peace Tia Ruth.. We love you and will remember you until the day we meet with you in Heaven...or wherever it is we go when our bodies cease to live on*******************
I am now going to watch some more Burst Angel.
xoxoxoxoxo

whoops

2009-09-20T21:08:00.000-07:00

Yesterday when I got in my car my eyes started burning and my throat got really scratchy....bad- I thought, "Did the heat bring my horrific air 'freshener' back from the dead?" Then I realized that a few days before my old car battery had leaked in my back seat. I immediately rolled all the wondows down, got out of the car, and put the air on full blast (after opening the back of course).
I let it sit like that for a few minutes before I could even get back in the car. It was horrible and made me soo sick to my stomach. I ended up missing the 1st audition I had lined up in a month because I was sick in bed until 5. MAJOR bummer.
I have been slacking really badly with everything, working out, eating well, laying out, getting acting modeling shit done. It really has me down.
When I get up tomorrow I will be doing p90x, ab ripper x and then going to pass out all of the fliers that I got LAST WEEK.
Lame!
It's time to get back on track because I have MAJORLY fallen off.

Watch over Me

2009-09-18T20:52:00.000-07:00

I just got done with a 3 hour rehearsal. I am really excited about starting this project over. We really have some good material, a camera man, a better space to shoot and a good fluid script. I get to really work my acting chops to as I have a couple emotional scenes. I love it!!!
I have an audition tomorrow for another project too so hopefully I will have a lot of work in the very near future.
I have a friend coming to visit tomorrow after work so I have been busy trying to straighten up a bit at home. We are all going to go out to dinner tomorrow night. I love going out with friends.
Oh by the way- The new Rammstein video is literally a porno. It's the oddest rock music video I have ever seen. It's the band members- fucking. Dicks and all. Interesting. http://www.visit-x.net/rammstein/ *************This is NOT for young eyes***********

remember this

2009-09-17T20:23:00.000-07:00

Oh yes...that's right- I am watching this right now.. have some drinks and pop in this sucker. Know that it is gonna be ridiculous.... and you will have an awesome time!!

Holy shit!

2009-09-17T07:45:00.000-07:00

Check this out. This poor chick got impaled, through the NECK by a tree! http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/us/2009/09/16/mcginty.tree.impales.woman.khq AAHHH!!!!!!!!!! I would have been freaking out soo bad!
Heading to work but I am going to be starting my before and after pictures for p90x in another blog. (still on this blogger but under another name). We'll see how it goes!

new website? Guns? Midget tossing??

2009-09-15T17:04:00.000-07:00

I just got back from Cavalry Arms. I spent a few hours going over installing the lower kit on an AR-15. That's right folks, I am at it again. I have a photoshoot with them tomorrow and then next week will be filming the tutorial video. This is for those that have the parts available, and may not know exactly how to put the gun together. MY gun...is purple. I HAVE to have a custom gun!! IT's me!
I did nothing but run errands today!! I didn't even get lunch or a chance to lay out! At least I got a lot done. I will have a blackberry next week too so it will be a lot more convenient for me to update my blog, pics and twitter. YAY!
Speaking of...Twitter (http://www.twitter.com/victoriapaege) I have been updating that more than anything else and even adding some pics that I haven't posted anywhere else. Just an FYI if you haven't started following me yet. *wink wink*
Ok--take a look at this picture. It is hanging at the gun company I will be working for and I HAD to take a picture. It's funny...but now look closer. What is going on in this picture?? Like, really, going on??? I want to hear what you all think. It's pretty crazy.

Noooow--- As for the website. I have a site name (not willing/able to pay for a domain yet though) but need some help with setting things up. If you get in contact with me I can give some examples. Anyone really good with web setup?? I need help!!
Thank you :)
I just got a call from a director/producer and I have an audition on Saturday! That's always good news. We'll see how it goes!

p 90..p 90 X!!

2009-09-14T23:26:00.000-07:00

It's about that time again. When I first started my blogger account I was doing P90x, working my ass off and loving every minute of it. Then, like usual..things died down a little, I started working non-stop, and I made excuses. It's time for me to start up again. I am excited, I always feel so good when I do this workout.
In other news-----The flyers are here!!!!

I will be leaving them around town starting tomorrow. Watch for them at Bookmans, Zia, Atomic Comics and other places like that :) I am very excited!
I didn't get the video blog done because I went out of town. If you were looking for the 6th update and didn't find it, that's why. I will work on it tomorrow (Tuesday).
In other news....Patrick Swayze!! He is finally at rest after what had to be an exhausting battle with cancer. He hung on and got to stay with his family during his last months which is one of the best ways to spend your last days. May he rest in peace.
Ok, now, what I really want to go over is the Kanye West debaccle. I know that everyone has already talked about it. Ever since it happened at last nights VMA's. However, I just have 1 question to ask. If Serena Williams can lose an important game for "unsportsmanlike conduct," why is it that these entertainers can't be disqualified from things for their behavior???
Tennis matches actually matter. A reprocussion so big as to lose a match because of your behavior is a bit harsh. However, in the world of awards...it seems that you can act however you want and will still be in the running for every award possible. Getting nominated is a pretty exciting thing. Being invited and attending an awards ceremony, whether it be the Teen Choice awards, or the Emmys, is a privlidge. If you act out of hand, why are you only kicked out of the remainder of the event? Why not be held responsible for acting IRRESPONSIBLE and be disqualified from being nominated at the NEXT awards show that may be? I think it seems like pretty fair punishment. Whether you like it or not, when you become a celebrity, you become a role model. It seems like the majority of the nations "role models" are teaching everyone else that it is ok to act like a spoiled brat. And why not? You'll never be held responsible for your actions.

Oh!! Almost forgot

2009-09-11T11:29:00.000-07:00

I still need help with promoting costs for the con this year...any contributions are GREATLY appreciated!!

Thank you so much! xoxoxoxo

Slacker!

2009-09-11T10:59:00.000-07:00

It has been a few days since I got a chance to sit fora second and write what's going on around me. I am going to be working on another video blog today for the Tucson comic-con so I should be getting that posted today or tomorrow. Also, I am still needing ideas for my Cosplay outfit. So far it's between Aeris, Yuffie or x-23. The sooner I get more people giving me ideas, the quicker I can get the outfit made ; )
I just heard from L.A. and I have some potentially AWESOME news. If all goes well and there isn't some TRAGIC event that takes place, I will be working on a show from November until March!!! Here I come ABC! I am so excited I can't control myself.
I got the pictures back from the last shoot that I did. 3 have been touched up, I will post some for you *wink* I think these are the best that I have done yet. Definately a more mature theme. Different than anything I have done so far. I am very grateful and thank Pierre Price for the wonderful shoot. I am also going to be doing another photoshoot and tutorial video for Cavalry Arms. We were going to shoot today but not only is my car in the shop, one of the organizers is out because he just had dental surgery. OUCH!
Hopefully next week will be a little better and we can get things done.
I will be leaving for a short out of town roadtrip this Sunday-Tuesday. I am excited to go hang with some friends and family. There is a place that I always go to in Florence called A and M Pizza. Whenever I head out of town I make sure to stop there for a sub. They make the best bread and have the best subs in Arizona. *licks lips* great...now I'm hungry haha.

My thoughts on the matter...

2009-09-08T01:29:00.000-07:00

On September 8th, President Barack Obama is planning on making an address geared toward children and education. According to the White House, this address is going to be made in order to promote “the importance of [students] taking responsibility for their education, [and to] challenging [sic] them to set goals and do everything they can to succeed.” Sounds great, right? Our LEADER, taking some initiative and addressing the nations youth. Someone is showing that they CARE about the children and is taking steps towards at least trying to talk to the youth and making them aware of the fact that we need to embrace and work towards our futures. Our OWN future. I think that somewhere along the way we have neglected to bring up the importance of education and hard work.
I found the link (from the White House twitter page, believe it or not), that goes over the speech that is prepared, and there isn't a thing wrong with it. I got on a chat site today and someone said something along the lines of, "Don't say SHIT to my kid!" Really?! You're getting pretty defensive about your kid. What the hell do you think the President is going to say? "Support me no matter what, join the army, disobey your parents and forget about thinking on your own?" We take for granted the fact that we have it so easy here in America. In other countries, say the wrong thing about your ruler and your entire family will be shot down. That, or you will be humiliated and killed. Does anyone remember learning about Kim Jong-il and the false stories he makes up about everything? If you don't remember you should look it up. Even do a google search for the story he tells about his birth. We have a lot to learn. Some people are extremely ignorant.
The leader is here to lead, whether we like it or not. He will make decisions that he believes are for the good of the country. He will also make decisions that may not make us happy, but will at least help the country, or Government (as a whole) out. You can think of it like a business because that is essentially what it is. He isn't going to hold your hand and tell you sugar coated stories to make you feel better about the country. He is going to do what he seems necessary and we have to accept that.
Now stop your bitching.

Haha..

After a few seconds you may think, "ok, this is kind of getting lame", but that thought will only last another 2 seconds at best. This is pretty funny.

I am working on the next video blog for the Comic-con and should have it tomorrow (Friday). I have an ***************UPDATE**************** for one of the posts I did linking blood and dust comics. I gave you the mysspace page of http://www.myspace.com/juddglenny but I didn't give you the website address for their page!
http://www.bloodanddustcomic.com
Make sure to check it out for up to date info on their comic. I got to read the 1st 3 issues...hehe..I love the shit out of it so far. Wonderful..and dark. Just the way I like my comics!
It is finally storming so I am going to go hang out in the rain. I'll update you with more info tomorrow!

9.3.09 1st post

2009-09-03T19:18:00.000-07:00

Some days can be full of absolutely nothing, while others are so full you can't remember everything. It's funny how it works like that sometimes.
I feel like most of my days lately have been full of a lot of nothing. Luckily I am changing that. I got the first 6 episode of Watch Over Me printed up and have been running lines the past 2 days which is a good start. I am going to be rehearsing with the producer/actor next week which will take up an entire afternoon. I have also been eating much healthier and working out more so that I can start getting some photoshoots done and pictures posted. (YAY!)
I have an audition for a small student film tomorrow, but to be honest I really don't feel like going. I have done enough student films to know 1-there will be no pay, 2-there will be a LOT of disorganization and 3- the schedule will be changed a million times to accomadate other "actors" schedules. Plus, it's an hour drive to the audition. Not really worth it to me. Don't get me wrong, I don't in any way think that just because I have worked on a few bigger budget productions that I am ABOVE it, it just isn't an avenue I am focusing on right now. Plus, I have the web series to work on.
I started a twitter account. I only have followers. Hehe...it's ok. I like to read other people's tweets. It is a cute little site. It's like a giant mass text message. I can't really figure out how to use it though. I can't reply to anyone from my phone and don't know how to post links. You would think with my A plus college trainig (yes, I passes both classes), that I would be able to figure out something simple like that. haha..I'm in a good mood so I makes giggle :D
I went to the pool today-
Where is everyone?? It only took 20 minutes of complete silence and then this cute girl came out and cracked a beer. Yum *licks lips* We chatted a bit, it was nice to have company!!

It's raining, it's pouring

2009-08-31T22:19:00.000-07:00

It's about time we get a little rain. I don't know what happened this year but out Monsoon season was non-existant. I really like the little thunderstorms that we get every year...unfortunatly I have only been able to enjoy 2 or 3 so far. Maybe there will be more.
Tomorrow will be 2 years since my mister and I have been together :D . He has to work tomorrow afternoon though so we had our dinner tonight. I made a HUGE steak (I think it was 4 or 5 pounds), mashed potatoes and corn on the cob. It was delicious.
Tomorrow if it is sunny all I have planned is laying and reading by the pool. It will be very relaxing. I have 1 of the pictures from the quick bikini shoot I did that I have attached. (It was a do-it yourself shoot. No professional photographer lol) Oh well, it served it's purpose. I have also been reading through some scripts but don't have any auditions starting until September 4th. We will see how those go. I am aching for some more work. I HATE not being on set. I am addicted.

I totally swore against it

2009-08-28T14:07:00.000-07:00

But...I finally caved and started a twitter account. That's right. Me. I make fun of that shit...but now I can see myself becoming addicted very quickly. Like a russian prostitue and heroin. Oh well. My twitter address is twitter.com/vpaege. I signed up for it on my phine but don't really know how it works yet. I guess we will see.
So far none of the LA opportunities I have been going far are producing any results..but hey it's only been 2 things so far. There will be many more I am sure. I was supposed to go to Wet and Wild with my friends today but am stuck with no money..again. At least I'll have time to get a workout it. Having time and actually doing the workout are 2 different things though lol. I'll let you know how it goes. I got my bikini shoot done this week.. I needed full body pics very quickly and luckily I had some friends willing to help me out. Great Great friends :)
I posted a 4th video (posted here) for the comic-con. I will make the next 1 more interesting. I was in a hurry this week so it's not my best...get over it!
Thank you all again for the help with my Chipin account. Remember- you can find it further down the page or by going to my myspace (www.myspace.com/missvictoriapaege).

Update #4!! - The best free videos are right here

New comic-con information....and some corrections!!

2009-08-25T20:52:00.000-07:00

First of all I want to apologize for not updating everyone on the raffle BEFORE it took place in Tucson (this Tuesday the 25th). That was 100% my fault. It was on the website, and if I would have read it ahead of time I could have that information ahead of time. See what happens when you don't go to the page?!?!? Learn from my mistake guys...
Another correction- I went to the AZ Bay video showing in Scottsdale this week. It was not "Damaged Goods Media" as I had put earlier. I'm fucking up left and right~~
FInally though- I have a new video up. This time I went over the vendor information for Modelers or Mice. The artwork on their "props" is pretty freaking outstanding. They have guns, toys, masks. You really need to check out the gallery on their page. http://modelersormice.com/default.aspx Please also remember to check out Tucsoncomic-con.com for more information and for table information if you are a vendor.
Other than that, I enjoyed my last 2 days off. I finally went to the gym and did some good exercises yesterday. I layed by the pool the last 2 days also....that was sooo nice.
Amanda- I love you ladybug. Thank you for the contribution. You are wonderful~!
*I'm talking about my CHipin account that you can all find further down this page....or on my Myspace page. It is setup to help me with promotion costs and I appreciate every bit of help I can get:)*

Sooooo............... I went to Martini Ranch this weekend. I watched a lot of Arizona Bay Pictures videos play (2 of witch I was in --*yay*)..and then got to meet a lot of good contacts. I worked today and then came home and went out to eat with myman and his friends. I really wanted to hit up a happy hour, but unfortunately Applebees doesn't have happy hour on the weekends. Lame.... I finally got a frame for my High Tension poster....it looks amazing. Then we came home and I drank some champagne. Unfortunately it wasn't enough to entice the buzz...or drunk, I was hoping for. I am going to start getting ready got a photo shoot and I have to start tomorrow (it's a minimum 3 week prep time), so I was hoping tonight would be a gooooooood, drunk, fun night. Damn it, damn it, damn it. I lose this time inspector Gadget.

As for the Comic-con: I am to do the promotional videos.
The next few weeks to a month I will be focusing on the actual vendors and going over some basic information. Just like usual. Make sure to stay tuned- I promise once all of this is done I will focus more on me an my other projects.
Thanks for staying loyal!

Back home!

2009-08-21T22:32:00.000-07:00

I took a little vacation- -without my computer. I spent a few days in beautiful California. I had my meeting on Monday but don't have any information yet as to if I will be getting the opportunity I am hoping for. I should know more in 1 to 2 weeks and then there may be a BIG change in my life. Other than the meeting on Monday, I got to hang out with some old friends in LA. We went to see District 9 (amazing movie), and then hit up a few local spots for some food and drinks. It's always good to hang with familiar, friendly faces, as well as to meet new ones! I spend Tuesday with my friend Donnie driving around the coast, hiking some amazing, hidden spots by the ocean, and enjoying Santa Clarita. I got to see the "Sunken City." It is apparently a town that was built on the edge of the ocean and one day just completely sunk into the ground. There wasn't an earthquake or huge storm or anything, it just sank. It was pretty cool to look at. It's behind a big gate and you would never know it was even there unless you were a local. There are still big chunks of pavement in the dirt and you can even see where the road just stops and then drops off to this huge hole. Very interesting. The house I stayed at was amazing as well. It belongs to the owner of Spectrum FX. I can't really even begin to describe how beautiful it was. It is on 14 acres and is literally on the mountain...well, part of the mountain almost. It was spectacular.
Today was Scot's birthday so after he opened his presents we went to see a movie, layed by the pool, and then ran some errands. I made a great dinner too and am sooo full! I wanted to go out for dessert but now I am just waiting for Monday when I get to pick up the cake I had custom made for him. *Thank you Bindi Baby*
As for another comic update----I should be able to do one this weekend, as soon as I have some more information about the vendors.
Tomorrow night though I will be at Martini Ranch to see some video premiers. Doors are at 8, show is at 9 which will be followed by lots of drinking and socializing. Make sure to go if you are looking for something to do this Saturday. 21 and up only!
I'll get some pics and post them Sunday :)

Video blog number 3!

2009-08-12T17:31:00.000-07:00

I just posted my 3rd video blog with Tucson comic-con updates. As promised, I am going to be providing you with all of the links needed to check out the sites of the companies I mentioned. First- if you do not already have the link for the actual Tucson comic-con site-- here it is http://tucsoncomic-con.com/ Also, as for the artists that will be doing the artwork that will be on the upcoming flyers- here is their site:http://evilrobo.com/
Now-- for the myspace of my friends at Nightshade Productions: http://www.myspace.com/juddglenny. Make sure to add them as friends, check out their page, and come back every Monday when the post a new page!
As for me-- I am still more than happy to accept contributions to help me with distribution (paper/printing/gas/etc/etc/etc).

Thanks again guys!
Ok-- Now-- for my own personal news. The last post was done so quickly that I didn't really have time to go over anything. I am going to be heading to LA this Sunday. I have an interview/audition on Monday morning. I am nervous/anxious/excited. This could be a really good step for me. I am also really excited to possibly have some time to hang out with some friends that live in the Hollywood/LA area. Little mini vacations are fun.
I told you that I got to move to part time at work. It is really helping. It feels so good to know that I can work AND get out in time to get some exercise and house cleaning done. Not to mention I will have way more time to get photo shoots done. I can't wait for Monday to be over with. I keep getting those damn nervous butterflies in my stomach. This always happens to me. I am never really nervous when the moment comes but before....I guess it's just the fact that I don't know what to expect. I will be fine and I will let you all know exactly what the outcome is. Either way, I'm getting my name and face out there, which is what I need. I have been contacted about several other films also and am hoping that I get a good solid role out of at least 1 of them.
Not too much else is going on at the moment other than trying to prepare for my mans birthday. There's always something going on :)

Quick post

2009-08-09T14:13:00.000-07:00

I don't have anything to go over tucson-con wise so I haven't made a post yet. I am going to record something though as I at least want to make sure that I am keeping you updated weekly as promised.
On to me--
They let me switch to part time at work so now I can focus on more acting at the time being. Also, I had a Sunday through Wednesday LA trip planned so that I could go meet with a stunt casting director. That has been postponed--to next week. I will be up there and able to hang out with everyone...who know, I may even get to try surfing for the first time in my life. Cross your fingers for me as I really want and need this change. It will be very helpful. I can't wait for next weekend! I will post more tonight and possibly post a video. If not tonight, I guarantee one tomorrow. xoxoxoxo
Victoria----- Here's an oldie but a goodie-- next pics will be from the con shoot!

Comic-con Information- 2nd Post! - Watch more funny videos here

Progress??

2009-08-04T14:54:00.001-07:00

Hey guys-- I still need help from contributors on my chipin account.

I appreciate anything-even 2 bucks--Other than that, I want to say that episode 3 of Watch Over me has been written and now I am just waiting to film. Also, remember when I said I had some news about possible opening opportunities arising from Piranha 3d? Well. I have a meeting with a casting agent in L.A. this Monday. It wont be for a role really but more for stunts...with screen time during filming days. I leave Sunday night and will be staying in LA until Wednesday afernoon. I need all the positive thoughts possible! Also, if you haven't yet seen it, I posted a new video blog with Tucson Comic-con information. Here is the video-- You guys rock--and thanks for following my ramblings and crazy schedules :)

oooh wow.....

2009-08-01T20:38:00.001-07:00

I have some...no....I have lots of new things to talk about. It's amazing sometimes how many things can happen in a week. First off, I want to thank everyone who has been watching and following my video blogs. Awesome. Second, I am still working on "The Backup Plan" by Sub-par productions. The last night we spend filming went waaaay over schedule and we didn't wrap until 4am. The last scene has yet to be scheduled. I guess we'll see if it gets completed.
I have still been working 40 hour work weeks as well so I have been absolutely exhausted. I more and then hopefully, HOPEFULLY, they will switch me to part time (20 hours). That will help tremendously. It has only been a few weeks but already I am feeling the effects. I feel like shit after sitting in a chair for 11 hours a day. I haven't been able to work out very much at all, and I am missing the sun like crazy!! I have also missed out on some auditions and photoshoots so everything has really got me thinking things over. Sometimes it's so hard to make a leap when you know that it is -100% the best decision.
On that note...I may have an opportunity to spend and work for 4 months in LA on a show. I will have a place to stay, a vehicle to drive, be getting pretty good money and will be busting my ass and staying in hardcore shape. I will also be working with and meeting really really important contacts. I will hear more about this within the next week (cross your fingers). If not, then I know it's because there is a better opportunity that has yet to present itself :)
I went to my friend Brent's birthday party last week and got to enjoy dinner and drinks with my beautiful friends so I have pictures here for you! :)

Busy weekend!!

2009-07-25T00:00:00.000-07:00

It's been too long since my last post and I apologize for that. I have been very busy with work lately that I just come home, read a little and crash. I haven't even had time to lay out :( Tonight though, I told myself that, if anything, I would at least blog. I will do a video blog on Monday as that will be the 1st chance I get. I was filming all day today (I just got home at 12:03am). I have to work tomorrow from 8:15am to 7:15pm...and then fim another scene. We are hoping to wrap around midnight tomorrow and then pick up at 5:30 am Sunday morning. Then, after filming I have to work at my other job (you know, the one that gives me health insurance).
Today was a good shoot though. I met a new group of people and hopefully have another person to help me with the Tucson Con promotions. I am really getting lucky with all the help people are offering. YAY awesome people!!
If things go well I will have a photoshoot with an amazing photographer (Scott Price) on Monday. After which I will be filming and posting my Video blog. The organizer of the Con is in San Diego right now at the San Diego Comic Con trying to get new additions to bring down. Cross your fingers--we all want more amazing writers/artists etc..
I should be doing another shoot with the adorable Dominique in the next few weeks. We are going to use these pictures for more flyers/banners/etcetera. We read comics and we aren't afraid to show the world..I mean we all know-- Real Chicks Read Comics.
I'll leave you with that--and a picture that a friend clicked of me from set today..between filming.
