It's been an extraordinary few weeks with Team Thursday and I have grown so much more closer to them than ever before. Whether we're bonding and literally living through an entire lifetime in class, playing sports and eating "cheese and crackers" on the beach, working with industry professionals in a workshop setting, or having dinner together and supporting one another at film festivals, I am very grateful for each and every one of you. Thanks for sharing in so many of these wonderful memories with me and I very much look forward to many many more!!!

"TEAM THURSDAY FOREVER"

Saying that the month of June is busy for Corey would be understatement.

1) "The Idiot Who Loved" - SAG 30 Minute Short Film that Corey wrote, currently producing, and playing the lead male character Alex is in PRODUCTION! With a great cast and crew on board the team was able to make Day One and Day Two of shooting a huge success! Stay tuned for updates on Day Three and Day Four and plenty of Behind The Scenes photos!!!

2) Corey had his first two commercial auditions in recent weeks, one of which he got a callback! Although he did not get either of them, he is one step closer to booking his first principal commercial! Thank you again to awesome, hard working, and extremely friendly commercial agents at Baldwin Talent!

3) Corey has had the pleasure of performing Improv at LA Connection Comedy Theatre several times throughout the month and continues to attend weekly rehearsals. With a great cast and plenty of friendships growing, there are soon to be many other stage performances that Corey will be a part of!

4) A music video shoot is right around the corner as Corey will lend his guitar skills to this awesome project that he is very excited to be a part of. Stay tuned for when the cover song will be released and of course behind the scenes photos!

5) Corey, with his awesome acting class, has moved on to Phase Two of Anthony Meindl's Actor Workshop! Guided by his amazing teacher Nina Paul Rausch, Corey continues to grow as an actor and person as he proudly states "I Am The One".

6) "All Companions And Exiles" is getting ready to have their first table reading! Corey is delighted to be a part of this six episode Web-Series with the cast of his sketch comedy group "We Are Desperately Seeking Susan". Stay tuned for more details on the project and when rehearsals begin!

That's all for now and as always...

September has started off with a bang!

-I am back in the writing room after obtaining some great advice from executives at a film festival as well as a literary agent to alter the 22 minute "The Void" teleplay into a 40 minute script! So I've begun rewriting all 6 scripts of Season One adding more drama, action, character development, and a much larger world for the storyline to take a bigger emotional journey!

-I am now officially INSANITY certified! Not only can I inspire the world through my storytelling as an actor/screenwriter/director but I can now teach anyone to live a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life as an INSANITY instructor!

-A few auditions are on the horizon with many thanks to Backstage! Here's hoping I knock them all out of the park and I can truly beginning networking with many talented artists in Cali!

-Classes are just about starting up for the SAG-AFTRA LA Conservatory. It will be a very busy month as I continue to hone my craft, work in improvisational classes, and better learn more about me!
