YES!! Everything big, exactly. And be very "animated". To an extent, yes, w/ the dance. You should do the steps normal, but any hand gestures and especially facial expressions very, very big and animated...even though you feel like an idiot. :rolleyes: Seems silly, given that if you make it your face is covered but it does make a difference. It's funny because once you are a character the "big" and "animated" becomes so normal that you'll find yourself doing it out of costume in your day-to-day life. It took me a loooong time not to "overgesture" things. My family got a big kick out of me for awhile. :rolleyes::lol:
wait...Vince is going to be a character?

Yay! What are my chances of getting Ariel? :lookaroun
Extremely high!

The woodwork is done!
Thursday I move on to the walls which should go reasonably quickly, but still there's a good bit to do.
Tomorrow is the removal of all vent covers, receptacles and switchplates.
The vent covers all need to be painted, and that's the one job I'm giving to George.
And that's the latest update. :lookaroun
Yay for the woodwork being done!

Wow.
Painting is a lot more work than I thought it was. :dazzle::lookaroun

Do you get to audtion in the suit?? I imagine that would make it a lot easier...
Not at the World, but it would make sense.
Hey guys! Sorry I haven't been around today. I was painting. Did I miss anything?
Hey Nibblies!!!! :kiss:
So I just attempted a jumping twirl... and almost took out my TV. :lookaroun
omg. :ROFLOL:

I would say you're good w/ the twirling. I can't recall ever being asked to do that. :lol:

Oh and Vince, you have to be prepared to be very proactive and aggressive. Even after I found out that I'd gotten through the audition process and would be hired, I got MAJOR runarounds. To the point where it was 3 weeks before I was "supposed to" start, I had an apartment lined up and still no clue where/when I was actually going to be working. One time I called, they couldn't even find me in the system! Turns out they had my last name spelled wrong, but I spent alot of time on the phone w/ casting and ended up having a friend who worked for MK characters (girl I knew from dancing back home in NE) talk to some people for me.

Wow, I'll make a note of that.
