IMDB
IMDB is going to drive me crazy! I have been trying to update my credits for like 6 (YES, SIX!!) months now. I have 3, welll now 4, more credits for my films and NONE of them have been accepted by IMDB.
You know what email they send to me:
We are contacting you because our approval team has been busy reviewing many submissions and hasn’t had time to examine your new title yet. This is likely due to one of the following reasons:
Your title is lacking significant information
Other titles have been given higher priority because they supplied more information than yours.PLEASE NOTE that your title has not been explicitly rejected as nobody has even looked at it yet…..
New titles are processed in order of priority. This means that the more data you submit with your title (credits, screening, links, etc..)the higher priority is given..
Now let me tell you how retarded that is. If they HAVEN’T EVEN LOOKED AT IT, how do they know that I DIDN’T supply all the information???! Because links, screenings, festivals, cast, crew, etc…has ALL been added!!
Then when I tried sending an email to their support team asking if I provided all that information what is the problem, they SEND ME THE SAME EMAIL BACK!
One of my IMDB credits (Tears of a Clown) has 3 items listed about it, and the new credits have waaaay more information.
Fucking backwards, I swear!
I have two films in festivals right now and I can’t even get a fucking credit for them! I have 2 feature length films about to be released and I can’t event get a fucking credit for them either.
And when I talked to the producers and asked if they have tried submitting to IMDB, guess what they tell me????? YEP, IMDB sent them the same frikkin email!
What kind of world do we live in when an actress can’t even get her credits posted?!!! The world is a dark and twisted place I tell ya.
Lord give me strength!
What are you doing with your time?
It’s been awhile since I’ve written, shame shame. A lot of stuff going on though.
So the short film I acted in, “A Baby Away”, has been doing really good hitting the festival market.
It is now currently the official selection at the Hollywood Black Film Festival, San Francisco Black Film Festival, AND Martha’s Vineyard Black Film Festival!!
WOW! I’m impressed.
Finally got my reel updated (including a scene from A Baby Away), you can check it out on my site and of course MySpace and YouTube!!
Had my screening for the feature film “Losing Faith” that premiered. At first I was really nervous because I hadn’t seen the finished project, but came out REALLY GOOD!! I’m excited. Going to be hitting festivals soon!
Finally heard back from the producers of “No Answer”, they are anticipating completion by the end of the summer
So I’m still plugging along, so far so good.
Teaming up with a friend of mine to get some movies green lit and slated. Just gonna hammer them out!!!
Might be signing with the agency The Gage Group, crossed fingers.
So that’s what’s up with Nikki Love. Nothing new.
On another note. I have been pondering on this concept of eternity.
If Eternity is everlasting, doesn’t that mean that we are in it right now?! And if we are in the middle of eternity, endless time until the Lord sees fit, we are just these beings on a tiny tiny spectrum of the timeline. What are you doing with your time? Are you wasting it or utilizing it?
Eternity is such an awesome concept is it not? This universe has been in existence for billions of years, and here we are. At THIS time, at THIS place, with THESE people surrounding us. Why now? Why weren’t you designed and roaming the earth 100 years ago, why not 10,000 years ago…
FOR SOME GODLY REASON, you are designed to be the person you are RIGHT NOW on this neverending spin through space on the timeline of “eternity”….
How amazing and awesome is that??
hmmm….
In 2 weeks
So you guys know I’ve been kinda hard on myself the past few weeks/months! LOL!
So when I finally decided to stop being so negative and just keep doing what I’m doing things started panning out a little.
I am now SAG Eligible! YAY about damn time!
I have my feature film “Losing Faith” screening next week.
“A Baby Away”, a short film by Courtney Franklin, has been accepted into the Hollywood Black Film Festival (which is next month) AND the San Francisco Black Film Festival (next month)! Yes, I was the lead! And so me and Courtney are going to head up to San Fran and make it do what we do…
REEL Ladies has been frikking soaring and I can’t wait to post pictures from event the other night. We’ve got some fantastic ladies lined up. We have featured Jennifer Schaefer, who was amazing, Amy Lyndon, which I have GOT to get into her Booking Class (www.coldreadingclasses.com), Andrea Wiley, who will just give you goose bumps, and much more. Make sure you check it out. And our radio show is now a FEATURED show on Blog Talk Radio. YAY!
So yes, I am excited. Now if I could just FINISH THE FRIKKIN SCRIPT!!!
but hey, whaddya gonna do? can’t have everything…
