Lenovo TV Spot: Got a callback, but my on-hold days were just released yesterday. Drat!
Apple Internet-only Spot: On hold for tomorrow and Thursday.

Also I acted in another Untucked Films short, The Funeral. This one’ll be in HD. What I’ve seen so far looks beautiful.

Looks like I’ll be playing a deadpan office drone (officemate: “That is totally you.”) in a commercial for Dunkin Donuts’ coffee!

Elections-On-Demand

Filed under: Acting — Jonathan Harford @ 11:08

On Saturday I was in a commercial for some cable channel called “Elections On Demand”. Which, as far as I can tell, will be a channel dedicated to the presidential election. The gist of the spot is a series of man-on-the-street clips, where each person says something completely shallow about who they’re planning to vote for. Some lines I came up with:

  • “I could never vote for anybody who isn’t a cat person, so that only really leaves me one choice.”
  • “I once had coffee with his dental hygienist, and she seemed really nice.”
  • “I really admire his stance on the Mac vs. PC issue.”
  • “I just hope my skin looks that good when I’m that age.”
  • “I had this dream that we raised a child together.”

Some recent auditions: Novell, Maytag, Popeye’s Chicken, NY1, Reebok, Reddi Wip

Looks like I’ll be flying to Virginia tomorrow to be in a Virginia Lottery spot. I’ll be playing the slovenly son who’s moved back in with his parents. Yay!

9/23: “The Switch”

Filed under: Acting, Event — Jonathan Harford @ 10:19

switchOn September 23, “The Switch” (dir. Jonathan Emmerling) will be one of sixteen short films (chosen from 161 submissions) premiering at Tropfest@Tribeca, a “free public outdoor short film festival” at Battery Park. I play Tom, the sad sack who’s so bad with the laydeez he’s never been on a second date. He finally meets an attractive someone who totally “gets” him and “crushes on” him and whatnot, but it’s a dude! Laughter, tears, lessons, etc. ensue. Watch a short clip here.

Not to be shallow (I’m not, but I know some of you are), but I understand the judges’ll be some, like, pretty famous peeps — last year Naomi Watts and Matt Dillon were two of ‘em. Maybe Robert DeNiro will ask you to save his seat when he goes for a pee. You can blog about it later.

So: I hope you’ll join my friends and me for what will, at the very least, be some pretty good short films. And maybe some wine, if we can bring wine in. (Probably not.) Entertainment starts at 5, and the screening starts around 8 (about when I imagine I’ll get there).

YAY

Jonathan
