Under Armour What's Beautiful - A competition to redefine the female athlete

Check out this campaign- like an Op BABE challenge! Wonder what my goal could be…

An oldie but a goodie…Pranav Mistry gives a brilliant TED Talk on his ‘Sixth Sense’ Technology. What’s even more brilliant? It’s now an open source project. Has someone made the device yet?

Love this video I found on @StyleLikeU…Scout Willis wrote and acted in it, Magda Wonsinka directed. Very inspiring— I want to create a piece like this— it’s Sofia Coppola’esque’ but with more grit.

Pulling media for my new site and demo reel…came across this pic from the set of a pre-viz I shot up in Van with an amazing stunt team. Need to do something like this again soon!

A little hint at what my new site is going to look like! 
It’s a slow go, especially finding the time to populate it with content and finalize the layout, but I’m really excited to launch very soon.  A huge thanks to the talented Adam Levermore for his amazing work.
In the mean time, you can find most of my acting/ producing/ writing credits, and a bunch of pictures, at IMDB. If you have a project opportunity please contact my manager ericATcrestviewentertainmentDOTcom or message me on twitter. Thanks!

The Hollywood Reporter’s (@THR) top 100 Women in Entertainment list came out today. At first glance I thought it was just all the female execs and agents in town (yawn) but in reading it further, there are some inspirational women highlighted. If you’re in this business, you need to know who these smart women are. But only #11, Lauren Zalaznick, seems to have any affiliation with the digital space. I hope this changes.

On a side note, I was supposed to interview for a job with Stacey Snider back in my William Morris days. I always wondered what it would have been like to work her, what I would have learned. But instead I left the business side and followed my passion. Now both sides have merged for me. I hope to meet the woman one day soon.

Go kick some ass today everyone!

Meet the woman who is running DARPA in this month’s @fastcompany: http://www.fastcompany.com/magazine/160/regina-dugan-darpa I love finding articles about badass, brilliant women. For those of you who are science and technology buffs like me, it’s exciting to read about Regina Dugan, who’s looking to both speed up and open up innovation, and even turn to crowdsourcing.  And it sounds like she is a great leader, having met all 217 of her employees individually. A worthwhile read.

I’m always looking for articles like these so if you stumble across one, please send it my way!

The corporate ladder is gone. That linear, vertical path to success, where you’re rewarded one step at a time, assured growth and prosperity if you stay hard working and loyal? Dead. Extinct. Blown up. What exists now? The corporate jungle gym, the gauntlet, the TARDIS. One innovative decision could propel you into the stratosphere, and 20 years of service could get you a pink slip. Your career is a multi dimensional chess game now: see 4 moves ahead. See 4 years ahead. Take risks. There may be more competition but there is also more opportunity; the landscape of every industry is in the throws of change. Be innovators. The powers that be aren’t fortune tellers or wizards. They are scared and they won’t hesitate to sacrifice their minions to stay afloat. But that’s their first mistake. Today you need a spaceship, not a boat. 

My musing of the day—
