Current project news, appearances, and occasional random musings.
I filmed scenes for the feature film MIDGETS VS. MASCOTS today. When self-made millionaire and little person Big Red unexpectedly dies, he leaves a video explaining his last will and testament. The video will states that in order to receive a share of the millions, the two benefactors, his wife, Bonnie, and son, Little Red, must carry out a competition between two teams of people that are beloved by the deceased: "Little People" and "Mascots". Over 30 days, the little people go head to head against the mascots in classically funny, yet challenging, competitions that will test their determination, creativity, and loyalty to their peers. All the while the action is being filmed for the documentary A TRIBUTE TO BIG RED. One million dollars per team member is on the line. But, the benefactors/coaches are scheming against each other for an even bigger payoff. What fun! He he. I was one of a group of mascot hopefuls, vying for a spot on the mascot team, although I don't make the cut. Just look for the Blow Me Bubble Gum guy! Yep, that's me! There was a race, an obstacle course, and a gladiator-style fight to the death. Well, nearly. I held my own in the race and on the obstacle course, but I was ultimately defeated in the ring by Gary Coleman. I had him beat until a series of cheap shots left me on the ground, clutching the family jewels. The judges were obviously paid to look the other way. I want a rematch, Gary!
