We Are Two Weeks Away! Please RSVP to come see our showcase and support a good charitable cause! Information below! And as always, RISE WITH THE PHOENIX!  It's always a pleasure to work with my wife Jenn in films and in life. We make an incredible team and it's so incredible to tackle new projects together. In the class setting at AMAW we are always stepping into fear and challenging ourselves. I am forever grateful for the teachers and fellow classmates at AMAW and especially every member of #TeamThursday. We are all so very brave and inspiring towards each other every time. It is extremely encouraging that they all have our backs when we step up to "live in the moment" in our scenes in class. So please enjoy this scene below. Viewer Discretion Advised. ------Corey @CoreySnowden1 #RiseWithThePhoenix This has been a very busy few weeks as pre-production for "Linked" is in full effect. With new script rewrites tying in previous projects such as "The Void", "The Idiot Who Loved", "How She Became My Ex", "The Retribution", "Corey and Friends", "Led by Faith", and "Solitary Confinement". Linked will be bringing them all together in the same cinematic universe! Also on the "Linked" Facebook page we have our full cast announcements and descriptions on each of the characters. Crew meetings have begun as well as the Indiegogo Campaign will be launching this coming week! Together we can make this project possible. For we are all connected. We are all one. We are all linked! And as always... RISE WITH THE PHOENIX ---------Corey #RiseWithThePhoenix @CoreySnowden1  #TeamThursday just keeps getting bigger! This past month I have had the pleasure of meeting such an immensely talented and friendly group of actors I can now call family. To say that #TeamThursday is larger than it's ever been would be an understatement. At Anthony Meindl's Book Launch and Birthday Party I was pleasantly reminded of why my wife and I moved out to California a year and a half ago and how far we have come. We have met so many amazing friends who have inspired us more than we ever thought possible. I am very much looking forward to working with these fantastic individuals in class, on set, and any place we can think of. Here's hoping for much success, breakthroughs, and inspiring moments for us all to share together in 2016! -------Corey #RiseWithThePhoenix @CoreySnowden1  #TeamThursday Rises With The Phoenix  Me, Jenn, Torran, Shelby, Katya, Daniel, and Matt  #BTFJ To say that a lot has happened since my last blog post would be an understatement. These past few weeks have been very hectic but much has been accomplished in a short amount of time. Let's discuss some of those events that have happened just before Christmas vacation begins and Jenn and I will be heading back to New Jersey and West Virginia for a few weeks!
-I've completed my third draft of my feature screenplay LINKED. The table reading was a huge success and the stories and characters are so much more well rounded and thought out. It's going to be a fantastic project when it's all said and done. The campaign preparation has begun and in the new year it will be officially launched! -I successfully completed The Actors Business Breakthrough and it was a huge success. Obtaining my personal vision statement and even writing a letter to my future self was intriguing. I'll receive it in November 2016! With my 8 week goal completed with meeting some of my targeted casting directors, January 2016 will start a new 8 week goal...finally getting a good, strong, passionate theatrical agent! -I've reviewed several versions of The Idiot Who Loved as we crack down on the edits to create the best project possible. With the help of a great editor so much positive things can be accomplished and TIWL is proving to be just that. I can not wait to share the finished film with the world and especially can't wait for the wrap party! -I've joined the Actors Key and the Actors Link and have had the opportunity to meet with and work one on one with several casting directors and theatrical agents that are in my target list. Little by little the door is opening and one day that world will see what I can do ;) -AMAW classes as well as LAC rehearsals have ended for the year. I would like to thank Tony, Nina, Todd, Kent, Deven, Joe, and so many other inspirational teachers and coaches over the last year who have helped me transform into a better person and actor. I can not wait for our continued success in #TeamThursday as well as with Group Text in our new location next year in Burbank! -I've started reworking my BIG saga film series that is ultimately my main career goals. I call them "The Big 6". It's what I was put on this earth to create and I am destined to be the lead character in the film franchise. One day. Some day. I will Rise With The Phoenix for real. TTFN! Ta Ta For Now! (Sorry my Disney World vacation is still in my heart :D) And as always....RISE WITH THE PHOENIX! ------Corey @CoreySnowden1 #RiseWithThePhoenix 
What a rewarding, life changing experience! Jenn and I had the pleasure this past week to complete a 5 day course of Ziva Meditation with an amazing instructor named Emily Fletcher.
The experiences of "transcendence", our new mantra's, and the group meditation setting was extremely inspiring and helpful in opening up a new pathway on our life's journey. Every meditation was a different experience and every talk back gave new meaning to inspiration. And it is amazing how everything I'm learning at AMAW with Anthony Meindl and with Dallas Travers and the Actors Business Breakthrough all connects to one another. Life is about living in the moment, connecting our left brain and our right brain, and learning to cherish, love, and be YOU! With a lifetime membership to Ziva Meditation, Emily, and countless other amazing meditators I know this is only the beginning of this blissful experience. I am not here to become a good meditator I am here to become good at life! "We are not just a wave on the ocean...we ARE the ocean" And please enjoy our thoughts on the first and last day of the course from our Two Periscope Videos on Katch.me below!!! #RiseWithThePhoenix What else can I say? Coming to Los Angeles a year ago with my wife we had no idea who we would meet or what to expect. Family and Friends were back on the East Coast and we were on our own not knowing a single person in LA. Until we joined Anthony Meindl's Actor Workshop that all changed. Experiencing our darkness, failures, fears, insecurities, flaws together...but also our light, truths, successes, hopes, passions, and our power...together. I've never been more comfortable to share my story and I now always know my voice matters. My dreams matter. My hopes matter. With their help I am a firm believer in myself and I am forever inspired by this new extended family. They have ALL grown a special place in my heart and I thank them so much for believing in me, becoming inspired by me, and collaborating with me in class and now outside of class. The sky is the limit for us all. And I am beyond thrilled that we are going hand in hand in this life's journey to making our dreams come true. #RiseWithThePhoenix  #TeamThursday #AMAWLALOVE  My AMAW Family Here are a TON of updates from just the last five days! Always moving forward and making progress!
-LA Connection: Had two great rehearsals this week with such an amazing, talented, and hilarious group of people before my Third Improv Show this past Friday! Our teacher Joe Spence is motivating, talented, and extremely easy to learn from. And although I will be moving up into a new group, one step closer to running our own show, I will be finishing up the year with some great friends I've made at LA Connection. Hope we all continue to work together no matter what class we're in! -AMAW: Another amazing, inspiring BONUS class with Mario and company Thursday night. Definitely building some great connections with some awesome people and learning so much about myself and my work. The techniques at this tremendous school has hugely effected my ability to bring ME to every character and my confidence has skyrocketed. Anybody interested in making a movie together? Let's do it!!! -Sketch Comedy Co-Op: Our show on February 4th is getting closer and our skits are coming along nicely. Dan is amazing and is leading the charge as it turns out I'm now the only guy! Although a lot of the original group has left I am very pleased with who remains as we are going to kick ass and take names at our performance! -Auditions Galore: Had a couple of auditions this week and I've never had more fun doing them. I must say that with everything I'm learning at AMAW has only helped me to grow as an actor. Memorization is easy, listening in the moment is easy, and my ability to bring the character out of me is tremendous. I've never been more comfortable in a role then I have since attending Tony and Mario's classes! -AFI Campus: Got a great opportunity to meet with a very talented group of filmmakers and directors and perform as an actor in one of their workshop classes. Being able to dive into a role I've never portrayed before and blowing it out of the park not only inspired myself but the professor and directors as well. I wish to work with many of them in the future so here's hoping for the best! A lot of big things on the horizon but that's all for now! Oh and...RISE WITH THE PHOENIX!!!! What an amazing, inspiring, talented class! I've had the pleasure of watching all of these great people grow and have breakthroughs in their work. I am thrilled that we have a few more classes together and hopefully we can all build long lasting relationships with each other. You guys are phenomenal and thank you for sharing YOU! And Mario...you are a genius!!! Thank you for opening us up to reveal ourselves in every scene and for believing in us!  |
