Speaker 1 (00:01):
Welcome to your diary episode. Here's the thing.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
I'm a bit of a nomad, so these episodes come
to from wherever I'm living or traveling to at the time,
so I'll share with you what's going on in my world.
From book tours, animal encounters, delish meals, nature adventures, health
discoveries to swimming in hidden Byron Bay beaches. Come with
(00:25):
me as I share my adventures with you all. Hello there, Gangles,
and welcome to the Ala Potteroony Diary, coming to you
from none other than Los Angeles. It's been a fun week.
It's been an interesting week in that some cool things
(00:47):
are on the horizon, but I've just essentially been on
hold for them. So in acting world, when a casting
director asks for your availability, you essentially hold those dates
and then they let you know if they're going to
use you or bring you in for a fitting and
then use you or not. And this week I've been
on hold for something and I have had said lots
(01:08):
of questions about it, like am I comfortable being in
a bikini? Am I do I own a suit jacket?
Stuff like that, And then like there were three fitting
days and I gave my availability for them, and then
filming days as well, and for all the questions back
and forth, I essentially just stayed on hold and right
now as we record, would have been said fitting.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
But obviously I presume built their cast.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
So it's really fascinating because it's kind of like exciting,
and I would say a win because I'm a bit
more visible than I may have been, say a month
or two ago. But also it's a bit of a like,
oh shift me timbers Well, I can't plan much while
I'm kind of on hold. So it was really interesting experience,
a new experience for me, and I definitely don't feel
(01:55):
down about it. I'm just like, okay, cool, that's an
interesting experience of being played based on hold and not
essentially booking. But you know, that's what this pot is.
It's an honest telling of the truth of a life
of an actor.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Here in La. Speaking of here in La, we.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Just went and had a cute little coffee with our
friend Ilius who's in town, and we went to this
really cute cafe that's kind of like a greenhouse bookstore
slash cafe. It's called Cafe Neido and Ido.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Really sweet. It's in Echo Park.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
It's a cool little vibe and we Boss and I
shared a little brecky burrito and our butto got a
steak burrito and all really really good yummy coffee and
just a cool little bougie La Cafe. And there were
lots ofceedings, so it wasn't like you couldn't figure out
where to see it. I would definitely. It's a good
(02:51):
little meetings what I definitely take meetings. They are moving forward.
I'm so glad I got to experience it because I'd
never been there before. Okay, yesterday was a really I
filmed a podcast so in La So in Australia, I
always film the pods because I have access to the
beautiful iHeartRadio studios in both Melbourne and Sydney. But when
(03:12):
I'm in Los Angeles, I kind of just do what
I'm doing for you right now, and I sit down
and I record the audio. But I had a really
special guest on yesterday. He is a director, writer and
executive producer. His name is Joshua Friedman. He's incredible. He
has just directed his first feature film and it's called
The Queen's Jewels and Boss and I got sent. I
(03:34):
think I told you this last week. We got sent
basically a screener. We sat in bed and watched said
screener and it was really cool. It's kind of like
a hero's journey, friendship journey, thriller adventure finding treasure, all
set in the Bahamas. Really really cool and such a
fun adventure to follow. But what was so cool yesterday
(03:55):
was really getting to peek behind the veil and learn
and understand. And they're behind the scenes from like the
seed of the idea to creating a short film and
then that being a treatment that's used to sell an
option a feature film, and then where they are now
with distribution, and it's just really exciting. And Boss and
(04:16):
I are going to a special screening next week here
in La for it as well, which I'm really excited about.
So that episode will drop Monday. We're just waiting on
the files from the pod company and then where Matt's
gonna have to get to work with audio, and then
my beautiful friend Western's going to help me edit all
(04:37):
the audiogram files, like all the video files from yesterday.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
So it was a lot of fun.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
It is so much fun to film podcasts, and filming
pods is really big here in LA because a lot
of people put them on YouTube, and I don't think
it's as big in Australia to film your pods other
than to create like social media assets. But it is
really fun. Like I've just done a like just at
the moment in the process of negotiating a couple of
(05:03):
social media gigs, and all of them want filmed pods,
and I'm like, that is amazing. But just so you know,
like filming a pod, you have to hire the studio,
then you have to hire an editor. You need a
panelist in the room as well. You need three cameras
so you can have If it's two guests, you might
need four cameras, but if it's two guests, if it's
(05:24):
one guest, sorry, it's a camera for me, come camera
for the guests, and then.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
A wide shot.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
It's a lot of fun, but it's also a lot
of moving pieces. And this turnaround we've got right now
was a really tight turnaround. So as soon as we
receive those files, it's going to go straight to the
editor and then the clock will be ticking because this
is an episode that is going to.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Drop for an Aussie Monday.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
So excited, but also like there's a lot of work
doing in a very short amount of time.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Okay, so I just did this really cool thing today.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
I watched this Q and A with the show runner
and co creator of the Last of Us. His name
is Craig Maine or in Americans say Craig, they don't
say Craig, and editor Timothy Good And it was so cool.
It was like essentially a peep behind the scenes of
the Last of Us. As you know, that is where
(06:18):
I discovered and fell head over heels for lovely Pedro Pascal.
I've even got a T shirt with his munk on it.
And it's such a great show. If you haven't seen it,
don't worry. There's not going to be any spoilers in
what I say to you. But what was really cool,
like especially hearing Timothy Good speak, who is the editor,
who's kind of often the editors often the unsung heroes
(06:39):
of a feature film or a really great TV show because,
like I get taught in acting class, like you're acting
is often only as good as the editor, because the
editor is in charge of what shots they use a
view like how long the camera is going to stay
on you before they cut to the other. Like an
editor really has a huge huge job as far as
(07:00):
like bringing out the actor's best work, like from an
editing perspective. Anyway, I just took some notes down and
I'm going to share them with you because I think
they're really fascinating. So an editor described his job as
mining for emotion, making the emotion count. This can be
(07:20):
done through framing wider frames, keeping it less emotional, and
tighter shots. Tighter frames when the emotion really hits or
amps up. So much work has done. These are dot points,
by the way, so much work has done in the
prep And then I put a little note for myself.
I think this is the case for actors too, like
you want to prepare for prayer, for prayer so that
you were so free to explore and react and connect
(07:44):
to the other characters or actors in the scene. And
then they said you have to dive deep on the dailies.
So the dailies are the daily cuts, So whatever they've
shot that day then goes us that same day to
the editor and the editor starts editing straight away. You
(08:05):
have to dive deep into the dailies, so the editor
will get sent dailies, which is like whatever they've shot
that day, and then they'll work on those dailies to
make sure that they've got the shots or to make
sure that nothing needs to be reshot because once a
set is striked some once you strike a set, you
pull it down and then you're onto kind of like
the next part of filming. So and editor is arguably
(08:26):
kind of like the right hand of the director. And
they work very very close all showrunner and they work
very very closely together. So I love this. As the
characters are closer to truth, I cut closer. If they're
not telling the truth, then I film them wide so interesting.
Editing is all about problem solving and commitment. So commitment
(08:49):
to the goal of the show, commitment to making it
the best possible thing it can be. The goal is
to make it as un thing that's the wrong word.
I've written there as possible, to make it as real
as possible, like untouched kind of thing. They want it
to be real, and they plan for imperfections like if
(09:10):
there was because it was this is the same duo
I believe that did Chernobyl, and they talked about like
if there was a helicopter in Schnobyl, like how long
has it been sitting there? Would there be like water,
condensation or rust on the side, like plan planning, imperfections
makes it realer. Everything begins with intention. I would say
that is the same for actors, directors, writers. These guys
(09:35):
said they are obsessed with storytelling, not just obsessed with
using sound as storytelling, not just the picture. So much
of the storytelling is in the sound. In grief scenes,
sometimes there's no sound to make us feel like there's
something or someone missing. Using environmental sounds in an emotional
(09:57):
way is essentially a musical to score. And they both
talked about how much they enjoyed doing that, and they
really deep dive and kind of like dialed in on sound,
saying sound is crucial. Without it, a TV or movie
will feel sterile. Sound is an incredible mover. It is
the glue that holds everything together. And it says here,
(10:19):
sound is the most evocative thing like smell, Like it can.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Bring up a memory, which is really really cool.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
And I was like, I was listening and watching this
like panel and I was like, Matt, are you listening.
He's like, yeah, it's so good. So it was really
fun to just soak it up and kind of like experience.
You know. What I love is a great show as
a consumer or a viewer, and just to kind of
(10:47):
like see it through, you know, the lens of the
actual creators, Like how cool is that? Since I last
spoke to you, Matt made this massive cook up for
our friends who are all so Italian or one's Italian,
one's Aussie. But Matt literally made almond biscotti. He made
lasagna from scratch, He made parmigiana egg plant parmijiana from scratch,
(11:14):
and then he made this garlic flat bread which was insane.
The castmelt like garlic for like two days after, but
it was like, oh my goodness, it was like garlic oregano.
Boss calls it oregano oregano, garlic olive oil in this
like flat bread he made from scratch. Oh it was
so so like I had to stop myself from eating.
(11:36):
It was so yummy and good. I loved it. And
then the other thing was we caught up with Matt's
other Bessie, who was in town over the weekend, and
we went to this really cool Mexican restaurant.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
What was it called.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
It was part of the Moundrian Hotel, which is on
Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood, Mexican.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
I'm googling it right next mix you can restaurant. It
was called Cassar.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Madua was Hollywood, really nice, really bougie, very Taloom inspired,
really really cool, really yummy. We shared like hormice and
which I know is not Mexican, and Avo dip, and
then we got this Mexican like black bean salad, and
then we got a caesar. I also know that's not Mexican.
I think it was Mexican inspired.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
And the.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Esthetic and the layout and the whole vibe was very.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Taloom.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
I would say, you know, like wicker kind of like
light shades and a lot of natural colors, a lot
of nature and views of course sweeping across Los Angeles.
Very very cool, very bougie, very like ala influencer spot,
but so yummy. So I had a chilled gamey from
Santa Barbara local, so nice, so like a chilled red
(12:57):
really going through a chilled red kind of fade. Not
I haven't had anything other since that. I haven't had
a drink this week because I've been fighting a LURGI
my friends, I don't know if you can hear in
my voice, but I've been fighting a little LURGI but
on the mend, turning a corner nowt and just so
so excited that like some of these kind of auditions
(13:19):
are rolling in and just want to feel good so
that I can put my best foot forward for them,
you know, in the coming weeks.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
So I'm feeling.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Excited and ready is how I would describe how I'm
feeling now. As always, I have got my Mermaid and
Dolphin's deck for you.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Ps, we're out of mercury retrograde now. How cool?
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Has people noticed that? Like communication has felt clearer and all.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
That kind of thing.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
I feel like Monday night stuff started to clap. It's
also when I started to feel a little bit lurgy
sicico but definitely coming through the other side, which is nice.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Bosses in the other room meditating right now.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
He's actually been really wonderful this week, if I if
I do say so myself, He's always wonderful, but he's
been real because I've been feeling a bit under the weather.
It's been making me chicken soup and making sure I
oranges and going out and getting me little like sachets
of vitamin C and Gloddathian and yeah, very sweet little
soul Okay, so I've pulled three cards, you know, the drill, past, present, future.
(14:28):
I always look at top of the deck and bottom
of the deck. So the past is father healing. That
doesn't necessarily mean a father, It could just be a
masculine figure in your life. Your personal power increases as
you give any farther related issues to heaven.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
The current one.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Make a decision. Feeling stuck or indecisive, listen to your
intuition and make a decision. I love that one, and
then ah, love this. I'm about to go to it
for a gentle hype with my friend Chloe.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
So this is perfect for us.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Tranquility, make time to relax, be still, and enjoy your solitude,
indulging in much needed self care. Top of the deck
treasure chest. We got that last week, gang. How good
an unforeseen windfall of new abundance comes to you now
and then bottom of the deck. I feel like this
was bottom of the deck last weekday. Yes, your intuition
(15:20):
is correct, take action accordingly, So trust your intuition. You'll
notice now that we're out of mercury retrograde, things are
going to feel a little clearer, and everyone's like, no.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
We're in shadow mercury retrograde.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
No, once we're out of mercury retrograde, shit gets clearer
and better. One hundred million, bazillion percent. That is fully
what I believe. Like I don't even question it for
a second. So I feel like things are going to
feel really good in the next little bit one hundred percent.
So just like tap in, you know, tap in, I
(15:58):
am about to go for a little hike. Tap I
don't mean stay tapping, but like, I just feel like
things are going to get really good. So like, back yourself,
do the shit you want to do.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Know that your intuition is correct.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Yes, So I'm about to go. I feel like I'm
having a combo with myself here. I'm about to go
for a little hike. I'm taking my friend Chloe one
of my favorite hikes up Griffith Park to the Observatory.
We're going to go the gentler version that I've decided
so well, we both said we want a gentle hike,
so I'm taking it the gentle way. It's stinking hot
in La. It's the middle of summer right now, so
(16:31):
it hits like high thirties close to forty every day.
La is apparently like it stays like this till like Halloween,
which is October. Secretly so excited for Halloween, my friends,
so excited for how low ween. I know spooky seasons
is not such a thing in Australia, but cannot wait,
(16:54):
can not wait. I look forward to catching up with
you next week. I think there'll be some cool stuff
to talk about because there's a few things bubbling away
on the horizon. So I will update you on everything
next week. In the meantime, go out there, do the
stuff you love, and do it unapologetically, you know, like
Matt and I turn forty in oh my goodness, a
(17:15):
month today, I turn forty, Oh my goodness. So like,
I don't want to waste time. I just want to
be honest, relentlessly honest, and not waste time.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Do the shit I love.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
That's really important for me right now, and I really
hope that that sparks something within you. All right, hooru,
You're the best.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Bye.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
Drop for an Aussie Monday.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
So excited, but also like there's a lot of work
doing in a very short amount of time.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Okay, so I just did this really cool thing today.

sometimes there's no sound to make us feel like there's
something or someone missing. Using environmental sounds in an emotional
(09:57):
way is essentially a musical to score. And they both
talked about how much they enjoyed doing that, and they
really deep dive and kind of like dialed in on sound,
saying sound is crucial. Without it, a TV or movie
will feel sterile. Sound is an incredible mover. It is
the glue that holds everything together. And it says here,
(10:19):
sound is the most evocative thing like smell, Like it can.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Bring up a memory, which is really really cool.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
And I was like, I was listening and watching this
like panel and I was like, Matt, are you listening.
He's like, yeah, it's so good. So it was really
fun to just soak it up and kind of like experience.
You know. What I love is a great show as
a consumer or a viewer, and just to kind of
(10:47):
like see it through, you know, the lens of the
actual creators, Like how cool is that? Since I last
spoke to you, Matt made this massive cook up for
our friends who are all so Italian or one's Italian,
one's Aussie. But Matt literally made almond biscotti. He made
lasagna from scratch, He made parmigiana egg plant parmijiana from scratch,
(11:14):
and then he made this garlic flat bread which was insane.
The castmelt like garlic for like two days after, but
it was like, oh my goodness, it was like garlic oregano.
Boss calls it oregano oregano, garlic olive oil in this
like flat bread he made from scratch. Oh it was
so so like I had to stop myself from eating.
(11:36):
It was so yummy and good. I loved it. And
then the other thing was we caught up with Matt's
other Bessie, who was in town over the weekend, and
we went to this really cool Mexican restaurant.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
What was it called.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
It was part of the Moundrian Hotel, which is on
Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood, Mexican.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
I'm googling it right next mix you can restaurant. It
was called Cassar.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Madua was Hollywood, really nice, really bougie, very Taloom inspired,
really really cool, really yummy. We shared like hormice and
which I know is not Mexican, and Avo dip, and
then we got this Mexican like black bean salad, and
then we got a caesar. I also know that's not Mexican.
I think it was Mexican inspired.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
And the.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Esthetic and the layout and the whole vibe was very.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Taloom.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
I would say, you know, like wicker kind of like
light shades and a lot of natural colors, a lot
of nature and views of course sweeping across Los Angeles.
Very very cool, very bougie, very like ala influencer spot,
but so yummy. So I had a chilled gamey from
Santa Barbara local, so nice, so like a chilled red
(12:57):
really going through a chilled red kind of fade. Not
I haven't had anything other since that. I haven't had
a drink this week because I've been fighting a LURGI
my friends, I don't know if you can hear in
my voice, but I've been fighting a little LURGI but
on the mend, turning a corner nowt and just so
so excited that like some of these kind of auditions
(13:19):
are rolling in and just want to feel good so
that I can put my best foot forward for them,
you know, in the coming weeks.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
So I'm feeling.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Excited and ready is how I would describe how I'm
feeling now. As always, I have got my Mermaid and
Dolphin's deck for you.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Ps, we're out of mercury retrograde now. How cool?
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Has people noticed that? Like communication has felt clearer and all.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
That kind of thing.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
I feel like Monday night stuff started to clap. It's
also when I started to feel a little bit lurgy
sicico but definitely coming through the other side, which is nice.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Bosses in the other room meditating right now.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
He's actually been really wonderful this week, if I if
I do say so myself, He's always wonderful, but he's
been real because I've been feeling a bit under the weather.
It's been making me chicken soup and making sure I
oranges and going out and getting me little like sachets
of vitamin C and Gloddathian and yeah, very sweet little
soul Okay, so I've pulled three cards, you know, the drill, past, present, future.
(14:28):
I always look at top of the deck and bottom
of the deck. So the past is father healing. That
doesn't necessarily mean a father, It could just be a
masculine figure in your life. Your personal power increases as
you give any farther related issues to heaven.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
The current one.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Make a decision. Feeling stuck or indecisive, listen to your
intuition and make a decision. I love that one, and
then ah, love this. I'm about to go to it
for a gentle hype with my friend Chloe.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
So this is perfect for us.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Tranquility, make time to relax, be still, and enjoy your solitude,
indulging in much needed self care. Top of the deck
treasure chest. We got that last week, gang. How good
an unforeseen windfall of new abundance comes to you now
and then bottom of the deck. I feel like this
was bottom of the deck last weekday. Yes, your intuition
(15:20):
is correct, take action accordingly, So trust your intuition. You'll
notice now that we're out of mercury retrograde, things are
going to feel a little clearer, and everyone's like, no.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
We're in shadow mercury retrograde.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
No, once we're out of mercury retrograde, shit gets clearer
and better. One hundred million, bazillion percent. That is fully
what I believe. Like I don't even question it for
a second. So I feel like things are going to
feel really good in the next little bit one hundred percent.
So just like tap in, you know, tap in, I
(15:58):
am about to go for a little hike. Tap I
don't mean stay tapping, but like, I just feel like
things are going to get really good. So like, back yourself,
do the shit you want to do.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Know that your intuition is correct.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Yes, So I'm about to go. I feel like I'm
having a combo with myself here. I'm about to go
for a little hike. I'm taking my friend Chloe one
of my favorite hikes up Griffith Park to the Observatory.
We're going to go the gentler version that I've decided
so well, we both said we want a gentle hike,
so I'm taking it the gentle way. It's stinking hot
in La. It's the middle of summer right now, so
(16:31):
it hits like high thirties close to forty every day.
La is apparently like it stays like this till like Halloween,
which is October. Secretly so excited for Halloween, my friends,
so excited for how low ween. I know spooky seasons
is not such a thing in Australia, but cannot wait,
(16:54):
can not wait. I look forward to catching up with
you next week. I think there'll be some cool stuff
to talk about because there's a few things bubbling away
on the horizon. So I will update you on everything
next week. In the meantime, go out there, do the
stuff you love, and do it unapologetically, you know, like
Matt and I turn forty in oh my goodness, a
(17:15):
month today, I turn forty, Oh my goodness. So like,
I don't want to waste time. I just want to
be honest, relentlessly honest, and not waste time.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Do the shit I love.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
That's really important for me right now, and I really
hope that that sparks something within you. All right, hooru,
You're the best.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Bye.
